Talking Thanks for pointing out the error, however..

...I love how you feel the need to keep visiting 400SH so often Michael..

Seems like an important part of your day, since you visit so often. Not to mention, you get half of your 1/400 news (AC/BB/Sovereign) straight from us..

Well, now that's a mature, grown up comment in ones database.

Shall we point out all the inaccuracies in the Wings/DAC db???

There are many.....

Lack of photos eh? We have 14,044 photos as I last checked. At the rate we are adding photos, we will surpass you in the number of photos by the end of October. Wings900...soon to be the largest PHOTO database online.

And I love how you copied the Phoenix information straight from us. I'm glad to see you took the bait and put down the wrong registration for the African Safari DC-8. There are plenty of retailers, distrubtors, and friends that are willing to give us AC/BB information. I'll admit I visit your forums, it's amusing how your own populous is complaining about all the errors on the BigBird/AC models. Definately good entertainment to watch.

Sure, if you want to help point out the errors we'd appreciate it. That way we'd have a more accurate database. Considering we keep track of nearly 195,000 data entries compared to your 15,000 or so.

Which is why I would like to thank Michael, Sascha, Carlos, Julian and the many others out there that have voluntered all their free time and worked on the database. Without them, we wouldn't have the largest database online.

It looks like an old mould with the wrong belly and the ugly sandwitch tail to me. I wonder who would buy it. PASS!

Not from my side Otavio.. I admit, the comments made by Mike made me upset.. But I took a deep breath, and realized I am mature enough not to continue my discussion with him..

So..... see you at 400SH!

What's really funny here is, you also have the wrong registration number in your db

If I'm not mistaken, I think it's 5Y-BAS

Which is how I could tell Faheem took the registration straight from us instead of doing the research himself. Many thanks for letting me know that I forgot to change it back.

For those that are curious 9Q-CBF which was posted in the database is of the same aircraft quite a few years later as it was purchased by LUKAS in Congo, however was never used by them and was later scrapped in Brussels.

Well, not that it makes any difference where each of you get your info, I know for a fact that lot's of the info you acquire come from our site, which doesn't bother me in the least...

Info is info, who cares where each of you get it, sounds a little immature to argue over it....

Oh no, my daddy can beat up your daddy...

Been there and done that! They will not listen. They are like horses with blinders. They will trot along and carry on without a second thought.

YES, we admit we have issues with our airline logos. YES, we have a solution to this problem. We have EXPLAINED why we are having these issues and we are simply waiting for the final green light to begin work on the new system. Find me an error besides airline logos which you have pointed out that have fallen on deaf ears.
