[Aus-soaring] Eckey/Wooller Matter
The silence on this matter over the last 24 hours has bee quite deafening. In my humble personal view, it is time for Bernard to apologise for the brain snap that lead to his (perhaps unintentional) deplorable actions in outing a fellow glider pilot that he apparently has had a personal issue with. Had Bernard's email addressed his instructor frustrations by referring to the details in a manner that maintained the anonymity of his fellow glider pilot, there would have been no problems from my point of view. PS: My position on this subject is in no way intended to detract from the appreciation and support of the generous efforts of Bernard and others in providing coaching to fellow glider pilots.

Hi Kevin If you had checked your personal e-mails you would have noticed that I provided you (and John Ashford) with additional information on your fellow club member. I'm sure you will view the matter differently after reading it.

Re: [Aus-soaring] Eckey/Wooller Matter
I'm sure you will view the matter differently after reading it. For once, I can barely find words to comment on this. The original email was representative of everything which is bad about the internet and chat groups. It leaves no room for the other party (whose name I refuse to remember) to reply and offer the other side of the story. Like Kevin, I was also expecting an apology would be made. We all make mistakes like this from time to time. To suggest that reading more about the issue would alter the facts is plain wrong. However cross and aggrieved you may be, you don't air private arguments in public forums… at least not if you're a grown-up.
