I do plan to get a copy, but even if it contains the video, it still presents the problem I've mentioned of being too long for very many people to actually watch. And since I'd have to prove a negative (that I didn't say anything untrue), it could only be proved by people willing to watch every second of it. That's (again) whyy the burden of proof rests with the prosecution.<BS> wrote:Weren't you going to get a copy of the case and do just that?bobk wrote:I would like to see Jonathan called on his B.S., but I won't hold my breath.
Sorry, my misunderstanding. I thought there'd be a ruling which would be made and noted.bobk wrote: And since I'd have to prove a negative (that I didn't say anything untrue), it could only be proved by people willing to watch every second of it.
No problem at all. I didn't know much about how these things worked before my involvement in this case.<BS> wrote:Sorry, my misunderstanding. I thought there'd be a ruling which would be made and noted.

OMG! Joe Faust is the coolest dude in the history of the sport of hang gliding. I'm truly touched.....I can take some satisfaction, however, in being able to point to this topic as part of the Jonathan Deetch Flow on the U.S. Hawks....
It's Jonathan's last name you're supposed to be misspelling, not Dennis's.Bob Kuczewski - 2017/10/07 19:01:49 UTC
The best he can come up with is that I had a bias while somehow glossing over the [sarcasm]unbiased[/sarcasm] testimony of Dennis Pagan and Marty Divietti.
Do ya really want any glider person - or anyone else for that matter - too fucking stupid to know or be able to find out Jonathan's correctly spelled last name and actual identity being involved in any glider discussions and/or actions?Bob Kuczewski - 2017/10/07 23:06:03 UTC
That's why I find it so disgusting that Jonathan - we're-not-allowed-to-spell-his-last-name-right Deetch would claim that my testimony was "impeached".
This forum? So there are others on which it would be OK?Bob Kuczewski - 2017/10/07 23:06:03 UTC
It concerns me that someone as dishonest as Jonathan Deietch has moderator privileges on this forum. He had a whole topic pulled down on the SHGA forum to cover some of his misdeeds in hang gliding. I don't think he should be trusted with that kind of power.

Wow Bob, seems like you've just been wrong about damn near everything up to this point in your hang gliding career.
Who'da thunk.Sam Kellner - 2011/09/17 15:14:57 UTC
Nothing is farther from "reality" than this quote.
So it's not a surprise, considering the lunatic source.
What's detrimental to the sport of HG, is destructive remarks/methods being spewed out on several of the popular forums, and some obscure forums that hang on by a string. The same thing over and over and over and over, same garbage.
Personal differences, namecalling, vulgar language, does not help.
It's easy to "really" see who is accomplishing worthwhile efforts/tasks.
Also easy to see who needs a crutch to hyper inflate a warped ego.

Nothing of much substance apparently.H-4/P-4 Advanced Pilot
Pilots at this level have accumulated the flying experience and judgment necessary to handle conditions at a wide range of flying sites. This doesn’t mean that they can fly every site! A part of "judgment" is knowing when a site or conditions are beyond the pilot's ability to handle them safely. Advanced pilots know when and where to fly, as well as when and where not to fly. They often serve as mentors and role models to less-experienced fliers. At some sites, advanced pilots are empowered to close the site or limit flying if they feel conditions are unsafe for lower-rated pilots. Some may also obtain instructor training and go on to teach the next generation of new fliers.
1. So you're acknowledging that they WERE dangerous practices. You're not saying "practices he considered dangerous" and not citing anyone saying that a Rooney Link induced increase the safety of the towing operation with the glider climbing hard in a near stall situation is a mere inconvenience for any pilot who's been trained how to react properly. And we have every right to aerotow with weak links way the fuck off the bottom of the FAA legal range.Bob Kuczewski - 2013/03/10 18:20:34 UTC
I first learned about Tad Eareckson when I was Regional Director and the USHPA Board circulated a letter he had written (with intention to send?) to the FAA about some dangerous practices in hang gliding.
The Board. But not the lawyer - the guy with the actual power in US hang and paragliding.The Board's knee-jerk response was to try to take some kind of legal action to silence Tad.
Bold move, Bob. Instead of standing up and saying in no uncertain terms that this is total fucking bullshit - the way I did when the Timothy Herr Hang and Paragliding Association made its big move against you.I indicated that I thought we shouldn't be sending our lawyers in as our first response, and that maybe we should have someone talk with him first.
Just like he'd previously volunteered to pay for the one point aerotow bridle/release assembly I made for him. And then there was the time he volunteered to investigate the Bill Bennett / Mike Del Signore twofer at Gates Field, Ohio, 1996/07/25. The Tad-O-Link on the glider end was MUCH too strong and there was nothing wrong with the trike release as it was fine for any REASONABLE aerotow load.So Dennis Pagen volunteered...
And:...and I believe the matter was settled without any serious damage to the sport.

Like competent understanding of fundamental aeronautical principles. Yeah, I know. Bit of a stretch in hang gliding. But The Bob Show really does honor the free speech of its members. And besides, it's not like anyone can actually DO anything over there 'cause I'm the only one with any access to any of the buttons that matter....forum because I wanted to incorporate diverse views in our new association.
But then he just went totally fuckin' nuts on competent understanding of fundamental aeronautical principles and started pissing off a lot of the most reliable Bob Show cocksuckers.Tad joined us, and for a while things were fine.
Yes, Bob. To YOU. The only individual who actually matters over there. Majorly telling that you don't even bother with the pretense of the Royal Us or include mention of any other highly valued Bob Show cocksuckers. Also don't mention the positions of any members who were most assuredly not in alignment with your perspective.But over time, it became obvious to me...
And bashing people is NEVER an element in actually solving any problems in the sport of hang gliding. 'Cause all the people in hang gliding are WONDERFUL! I don't know how or why - in a sport that one might expect would be a total dickhead magnet. But it just works out that way for some totally inexplicable reason....that he was more interested in just bashing people than trying to actually solve problems in the sport of hang gliding.
1. Totally artificial of course. But ya gotta do what ya gotta do.For a long time, I tried to show him kindness...

1. What was the Board's position? Or what do you think it would've been if you'd actually had one? One voted in by the membership rather than handpicked and appointed?...forum and I gave him a lot of slack with regard to his profanity and his comments that he wished certain people would crash and kill themselves.
And none of his legions of loyal cocksuckers ever even heard of him before. Toldyaso, motherfuckers.Jim Rooney - 2016/10/01 05:55:48 UTC
Up from surgery... Plates on L2 while it heals, will come out after. Feeling good.
I won't comment on my crash just yet. Maybe after the CAA investigation.
Just posting here too let people know that I'm doing well.
1. Didn't hear YOU making any suggestions for Jim to become a better or safer pilot. And that could've gotten his second tandem thrill ride victim killed.Bob Kuczewski - 2011/08/10 05:52:32 UTC
Take Jim Rooney, for example. Tad doesn't make suggestions for Jim to become a better or safer pilot.
That's alright, Bob...Eventually (and for reasons that I won't full disclose here)...
We got it OK over here.Bob Kuczewski - 2012/01/14 17:29:26 UTC
Tad, as a 30 something year old man, you had a homosexual relationship with a 12 year old boy while you were in a position of trust with regard to that boy.
Do you think you did anything wrong?
As I determined all by myself since we have no actual membership voting mechanism and it was a total no brainer that 100.00 percent of the Bob Show Membership - minus Tad of course - would be screaming for the action at the top of its lungs. And that would've been a major disruption of the primary mission of The Bob Show - which is to keep Bob in total control till the end of time....it became necessary to ask Tad to leave the US Hawks forum...
And then there's Steve Davy - who will be rotting in Bob's Basement with crippled forum access till the end of time....and he is currently the only person who's been completely banned from the US Hawks.
...not to mention Rafferty amounts of extra time to just be an idiot and not fly/work/live...Having said all of that, I have to add that Tad has an incredible amount of energy...
1. And I think it would be great if the sport of hang gliding could figure out:...and I think it would be great if the sport of hang gliding could figure out how to harness it.
But they're pretty much all straight pin based stuff and I do feel that the BIG DEAL he makes about the differences is somewhat overblown. So you should probably stick with the bent pin, Industry Standard, long track record stuff mandated by Davis and the rest of the Flight Park Mafia players.He's done extensive work on towing releases and he has a library of photographs related to releases.
1. Well fuck him then. Besides, it's not like there are any other individuals out there who share an important perspective. So it really can't be a very important perspective, can it?I think he brings an important perspective to the sport, but his personality is so toxic that it's very difficult to gain any benefit from it.
That's OK, Bob. Despite your failing to help Tad get past some of his "personality" issues and become a good contributing member on the US Hawks forum he's done OK on the Kite Strings forum which was the only third party venue to which you could go for a fair public exchange with Jonathan recently.Indeed, I consider it a failing on my part that I wasn't able to help Tad get past some of his "personality" issues and become a good contributing member on the US Hawks forum.
That ain't you. You've never contributed a single goddam thing to the technology and/or understanding of the physics of the sport or supported anybody who has and you never will. Your interest in science, truth, facts, reason, logic comes to a screeching halt the nanosecond you've reached the point at which you've advanced enough to be able to fine-print your way around it.Zack C - 2010/11/23 05:23:34 UTC
The purpose of Kite Strings is to foster serious discussion regarding the practices and technologies of modern hang gliding. This is a forum ruled by science, truth, facts, reason, and logic. Anyone with a respect for these principles and a willingness to learn and engage in rational discussion is welcome to participate.
Thanks for the honor, Bob. I'd have considered it a major character failing if I HADN'T been "asked to leave" "our" forum (for reasons that you won't full (or partial) disclose here) - and hadn't told you to go fuck yourself.Bob Kuczewski - 2013/03/10 18:20:34 UTC
A few years later (when I was starting the US Hawks Hang Gliding Association), I actually wrote to Tad inviting him to our forum because I wanted to incorporate diverse views in our new association.

And the above can be said about Mark G. Forbes as well, Bob. You and Mark, two peas, separate pods.That ain't you. You've never contributed a single goddam thing to the technology and/or understanding of the physics of the sport or supported anybody who has and you never will.
