It’s all good!

Give it 30-40 minutes. Sometimes it takes a little bit for the effects to take place.

It’s okay Trump is still your president.

How could anything from that tragic story resulted in comments prompting the deletion of a thread ?

Maybe because the person that it happened to didn't want anything about the incident on social media. There weren't any injuries to anyone other than some hurt pride.

OH wait --- I thought this was about the Coulson Aviation crash in Australia fighting brushfires ---- It's not is it ?

I do recall some quick blurp in another thread about somebody maybe getting wet on Havasu, thought somebody was just goofing around
Sorry to learn that just might have been a real incident and of course I understand not wanting that published online.
Glad there were no injuries !!!!
Thanks for explaining that sir

So what you are saying is when things aren’t going good people don’t want it posted on social media......but when things are going good they are the first to post “hey look at me, look what i got!!!”

Got to love it

A shit ton of members have more $$ and nicer toys than I do, I'm thankful they post them and share their adventures.
I also can appreciate and respect it when they choose not to publish their misfortune or family tragedies .

Now that right there is the type of 'Quality' reporting we've come to expect from the Havasu Hearld

Pretty vague article. Makes it sound like they landed on the lake?

I'm still a bit surprised about how much people reveal about their lives, families, health, finances, etc. I know this is the social media era but over-sharing has risks including losing one's privacy voluntarily

Herein lies the problem, you can’t make that decision when you post about your adventures, toys or basically how great your life is.

Lots of eyes out there with lots of information available instantly.

I’m not just pointing out this certain members incident i’m speaking of people on social media in general.

Did you see the rescue boat in the picture..

So likely an amphibious plane? Glad no one was hurt.

That's pretty much the jist of it.

Bad gas travels fast in a small town.

So the story is an amphibious plane got bad gas and crashed on the lake?

big difference between someone posted about what they purchased, what they did vs. others posting about it.
If pilot wants to share, he most likely will. If pilot does not want it shared then IMO he has that right to ask the thread be hidden.

social media has made privacy go away. I am old school and still believe owner has the right to what gets posted and if they did not post then they have right to ask it be taken down

 

[Nordie]

Was it Frank Holbert?

 

[monkeyswrench]

Whoever and whatever happened, only thing I caught was "no injuries"...
That's what matters. Shit goes bad on boats, in cars and, it would appear, with planes.

Things can be fixed or replaced...they're just "things". I would think they're sore as hell today, but hopefully thankful.

 

[LargeOrangeFont]

This explains the police boats I saw running around the lake while having dinner on the patio at El Paraiso last night.

You nailed it.

 

[ChumpChange]

So it was a member flying the plane?

 

[Racer56]

Speaking of deleted thread's, what happened to the LA Boat show contest thread?

 

[Sleek-Jet]

Was it Frank Holbert?

Frank's airplane is made of wood and thus would float... He could just grab an oar and paddle to shore.

 

[Go-Fly]

Was it Frank Holbert?

You better take this down or I'm going public.

I just figured you were in charge of the RDP neurolizer while you were out here.

kind of sad that envy drives people to be gleeful in light of others misfortune.

 

[DILLIGAF]

Were loop de loops involved?

Some of the newer inmates need to read that thread...

 

[MeCasa16]

It’s unlikely the person wants it deleted because of what any of us think. It’s most likely it is because if the FAA comes in with their fine tooth comb, you never know what could fall under;
“Anything you say can and will be used against you”.

Social media is one of the easiest ways to investigate.

Speaking of deleted thread's, what happened to the LA Boat show contest thread?

It's possible Dave might be in need of another 2 weeks before he can finalize the boat contest question, #27

Thinking maybe right now we oughta go a bit easier on old Frank Holbert our local go public pilot as he may of lost a few friends recently out of Corona.

Oh man that sucks
Sounds like some good people lost. It’s always the good people.

 

[Sleek-Jet]

Frank moved over to Chino quite a while ago. He got tired of the floods.

About that deleted thread.

Sos why is it uneasy?

Sos why is it uneasy?

Just was hoping it wasn't a fellow inmate who post a ton of badass boating content and other cool stuff. The boating family looks out for each other, last thing you want hear is someone got hurt. Sounds like everyone is ok, which is good.

Gotcha. Since I didn’t see it, I just assumed it was BB since it was deleted. Didn’t realize it wasn’t disclosed.
