I guess this is being "personal" but this is Bob's typical path of being removed from flying forums. First is threads are moved/split into different sections. Then his threads are locked. Then he's banned. I think this is the last forum he's can contribute to.

Due Process

Fulfill your destiny Bob.
There are systems with due process and systems without due process.

I was arrested 3 times, and I spent 3 separate 12 hour periods in jail.
All 3 times I posted bail, and all three times I appeared for my trial date.
All 3 times no charges had been filed and all 3 times my bail was returned.
Now I have a pretty good case for false arrest and false imprisonment.
I can now go to Torrey Pines any time just like any other citizen. They don't say a word.
That's a system with due process.

USHPA could not list a single SOP that I had broken in 10 years of flying.
I was not allowed to face my accusers who filed false charges against me.
I was not allowed to have legal representation - while USHPA was.
I was not allowed to present witnesses to any of the events I was charged with.
I was judged not by a jury of peers but by the people who wanted me gone.
That's a system without due process.

All of the forums you've mentioned fall into that latter category.
In all cases, there were no rules broken. There were no SOPs violated.
In all cases there was no jury of peers, and in most cases the decision
was made by a single person with a vested interest in silencing me.

So far, the Sylmar moderators haven't gone down that road. Good on them.

You, on the other hand, seem very desperate to silence me. Shame on you OP.

The SHGA pilot forum is a system without due process.

I did qualify my post with "So far".
