After all the years of reading this stuff and seeing wind-

argue with his textbooks, very publicly (as on a newsgroup) without
Googling it for himself first. He knows better, he's sure.

What's strange is CFI'S (two of them) who did not know how to explain
VOR to an electrial engineer (me), who, after reading the discription
of how it works, could probably make after reading the technical
specs.

Doesn#t matter how it works.

It does work, and lasts a long time. That#s all pilots need to know,
fjukkwit.





What's strange is one of the recognized leaders in flight training
materials using words like "energy" when they mean "power". I might
be a newbie to flying, but I'm not a newbie to physics.

And my guess is you´ßre going to be a permanent newbie to flying.
