Hi.
Those of you who have respected users, must have a reason why you respect them. If you want to tell everyone why you put them on your list, tell them here.
My respected users:
GKirk---Lives close to one of the airports I like the most, and has alot of info when it comes to UK aviation.
AKE0404AR---A professional photographer who offers help and advice to beginners within aviation photography.
hgkspotter1---has some exclusive shots on this site and is also a very good photographer when it comes to the more normal shots.
SVG---Lives close to my hometown and has much knowledge regarding flights here in Norway.
Ericmetallica---He likes Metallica, and so do I. He's a cool dude.
thomasphoto60---Another professional photographer who offers help and advice. (He's got a cool name too.)
Planeboy---He has many great pictures on the database and has given me credit for many of my photos.

Most of the people on my respected users list who just appeared, some i don't even like. I think they must have hacked into my computer and put themselves on it.
I tried to put myself on my list once but it didn't work, it just came up with:You may not have yourself in your respected users list. Bummer.
Oh yeah i do respect KLM747, he is cool and he likes my favourite airport that i visit all the time Schiphol!
Hhhmmmm there was this guy called Tim who added me to his respected users list, and then took me off it, SO WHEREVER YOU ARE YOU ARE A LITTLE DIPSH*T WHO F*CKS WITH MY BLEEDIN MIND.
Just kiddin.
Wow Englandair just added me to his list THANKS MATE!

TWFirst - What more can be said. Everyone's favourite...I wish he would come back...
AF Cabin Crew - Got to meet him in CDG and YYZ...such a cool guy and a great chef!
AF-A319 - Also met him in Paris with AF Cabin Crew.
Flashmeister - One of the original participants on the "Adam and Steve" post...a nice guy.
Louis - He doesn't visit the board anymore, but we had good discussions
Ilyushin96M - Another "adam and steve" original Very knowledgble on aviation in the former USSR, but alas he hasn't posted in a while
mls515 - The first user to respect me! Thanks man!
Slawko - Great to talk about all the goings on in YYZ and in Canadian aviation
JAT - Ditto, also talked a lot about air cadets
nicolaki - A real sweetheart. Sorry I couldn't meet you in Toronto
TG992 - We share a common taste in men...plus he's real cool
Superfly - Always very insightful and knocks sense into some of the silly posts
G Dubya - How could I not respect the President of the United States of America????
LH423 - We tend to agree on lots of stuff...hope I can see him when he comes to Montreal next year
Purdue Arrow - The second user to respect me!
OH-LGA - Keeps a level head and always contributes something interesting.
PANAM_DC10 - Doesn't post much but is a very nice person.
KROC - We disagree on a lot of stuff but he is one smart, tough cookie. You never see a dumb post from him. Too bad he hasn't posted for a while.
Boeing747-400 - I used to fight with him over being anti-airbus, but he's a nice guy now that he is more objective
Please note that Brissie_lions was removed from my list due to his weird behaviour over the past few months. Plus he doesn't use that username anymore.

OK, here are my reasons:
GKIRK- He's very knowlageable on UK aviation and airports and often gives very good answers to my questions. Also, I know he's into Nirvana (probably spelt that totally wrong) and all that weird metaler shit. A few of my freinds are into that sort of music and they receive alot of greif about it from the kevs and pikies, so I respect him for....well....being himself! Is a nice bloke too.
CEILIDH- I know what you're thinking, but I honestly do beleive that this bloke is trying to start an airline. I might just be very gullible (no I don't like that word...innocent!), but he appears to have the balls to try and do something most of us will only ever dream about.
TRVLR- My age, but with more knowlage and sense than most of the 40+ group on here! And I aggree with AA767-300ER...he is quite cute!
VIRGINFLYER- Same as trvlr realy (except for thinking she's cute and all!).
BA747-436- Just cause he's a nice bloke. (BTW, you back from Scotland yet Dan?)
IKARUS- Shares my love for VS. Weird and funny sense of humor!

Englandair: Wow! Since when do you respect me? I'm taken totally by surprise...
Thanks for the compliment about my sense of humour - most people find me totally unfunny or just plain weird...
So, well, here's my list:
raddog2: Nice guy, seems to have some compassion and always there to argue the human side of things against those evil #/\&~ fascist "<>\|@ US right-wingers...
JDB: Was very helpful and friendly, helping me to find infos about a plane I had photographed - and he works for VS
PHX-LJU: Once made a very intelligent post replying to one of MattD's more stupid topics, and for that intelligence I respect him
Capt Picard: I had been thinking about adding him for quite a while when we suddenly found ourselves stranded as almost the only contributors to a philosophical debate, and this intellectual exchange was so worthwhile that the decision was easy
Singapore_Air: Nice kid, maybe a bit too much into Singapore Airlines, but he posts high-quality information, quotes the articles very accurately and seems to be really passionate about his enthusiasm for aviation

Englandair: I did not mean to be annoying - It just sounded a bit odd (But on the other hand, EGGD's post did not make any sense to me, either....)
Also, my previous post was just an observation, not really criticism. In many ways, I find it fantastic how the web turns everyone equal (and allows people who are probably total losers in real-life to gain an online-following of fans who agree with anything they say like some users in here....)
Sometimes I get in this weird reflecting / observing mood, and then my posts just get totally insane, as now. I suppose I should stop trying to write poetry in my free time, before that totally fries my brain and turns me into an (Insert look of disgust here) ARTIST...

I think I'll put Singapore_air back on my list. He was one of the 1st to go on it but then I accindentally upset him on the 'How you imagine other users to look' topic. He removed me from his list and so out for revenge (ha, ha, ha ) I removed him from mine!
He does seem to have an almost unhealthy obsession with SQ, but he seems an alright blokey!

Ctbarnes: always willing to accept criticism and defend it well and in a calm manner.
Matt D: although he and I disagree on most issues, I respect him for standing firm on his opinions and arguing them in a mature way.
ILUV767: forgot why, but he seems to be very knowledgeable and has helped me on a lot of questions.
Raddog2: he shares a lot of his opinions with me and can argue them better than most others.
Prebennorholm: very knowledgeable and posts mature messages and helps to maintain a mature atmosphere with his messages.
Tristar: I don't know why, but he happens to be someone that I respect a lot.
Soon I will add MAC_Veteran, who appears to be a very informative and knowledgeable person that has provided a lot of information that others do not know about.

I have too many respected users and not enough time to write about them all, so I will say about the users i get on with the most:
Thom@s = Cool guy, always has something good to say and is funny also. He, like me, loves Newcastle airport. BTW, I live about 70 miles from NCL.
Englandair = Always has good questions to ask. Lucky as well to live on the flight-path to LHR, seems to be a very cool guy.
BDRules = Always has good things to say, especially about East Midlands airport. Cool guy.
Anyone Ive missed?? All others are on my users list because Ive noticed them asking good questions and giving good answers on a regular basis.
