Mike W:
No argument, criticism intended. Simply stating my experience and opinion
on the subject of changing the design of a product that I am familiar with.
Does disagreeing with someone on the Kolb List make me a bad guy?
I will continue share my experience, good and bad, hoping others on the Kolb
List will "read" and try to "understand" what I am saying, rather than take
personal offense to it.

John H.,
Everytime I have ever mentioned VGs, I have always made the very clear
point that SOME people don't see their
merit on THEIR plane. I have also made the point that these same people
aren't arguing whether or not they are useful, just that THEY don't see
their need for them.
As a general rule, I try and make a clear point of being tolerant of
other's views and experiences (as opposed to others). I realize there are
hundreds of flyers, and everyone of them has his or her own talents, or lack
thereof. What works for one, does NOT always work for someone else. Nor
should it. No one should be criticized for NOT following the choices of
someone else.
One of the wonderful advantages we enjoy here in the USA is the freedom to
build our planes in the Experimental catagory. It affords us the ability to
build our planes as we see fit. In my opinion, I think that is a good
thing. Otherwise, we might as all build our planes exactly identical to
each other, and never deviate a rivet.
