I think this is a bot posting. He made 3-4 posts yesterday on different topics (including shilling for a gaming forum) all with links leading you to some other place.

You might find some Fiat Spider owners who fly a CTLS or Piper Sport Airplane but then again you might not. Perhaps you should ask this on an aviation forum. On a Fiat 124 Spider you would not need to disconnect the battery unless you added some very sensitive electronics and were using a desulfating pulse charger.

Are you using some robot posting software to search out forums to automatically post these things? If you are its not working very well.

I think you are right DieselSpider.
Probably gets paid 1,000th of a cent every time someone hits his irrelevant links.
