I'll bet the Australians use something even better than either of
us :-))
Their conveyor belts go in the opposite direction.

aiee, I need a vacation.


..and their airplanes fly upside down too :-))
They'd say you're entitled to your point of view....


It IS amazing when one stops to actually visualize it; the round globe;
the other side of it; and flying in the same sky upside down relative to
each other but right side up relative to the individual localities.
It's of course obvious to us in the macro sense, but when you REALLY get
down to the micro visualization of it all................ :-))))




Bucky Fuller amy have said it best when he said that up and down are
completely innacurate. The correct terms for a pilot should be in and out..

I think he was talking about flying, anyway..

You run into this when you start explaining left and right vs inside and
top or outside rudder when dealing with slow rolls :-)
