I'm curious, do you have brown eyes?


In truth, no. But he's just a quart low.

Push the stick forward, the houses get bigger.

Pull the stick back, the houses get smaller.

Keep pulling the stick back, the houses get bigger.

So when it's time to land, you just push the yoke forward until you
touchdown on the runway?

Well, this is an aviation forum, so I'll just leave it at that.

Effective, yes, but very complex, heavy and expensive. I recall seeing
an ad for Breitling watches that had a P-51 with contra-rotating props.
I think it was a one-off aircraft with a RR Griffon engine?


That aircraft was modified for Unlimited racing at Reno. It also had the
bobbed canopy and clipped wings.

110 proof is, after all, only 55% pure, and I give him higher scores
than that!

No. If the bicycle cannot turn, it will fall over. It cannot turn on
rollers. It can turn on flat pavement.


You see, the bicycle stays up because it turns. "You see . . ."

No - I'm afraid I don't "see"?
Ten minuites ago, the bicycle satyed upright due to "power" to the rear wheel,
and "traction" on both wheels. Now, the bicycle stays upright because it
"turns". . .

In your most recent posts, the bicycle "cannot" fall unless it stops or loses
"traction". Now, the bicycle "stays upright because it turns" . . .

THIS GUY IS INSANITY IN DISTILLED FORM - 110 PROOF!!!!!!!!!!!!

You could do it that way.

As a matter of fact for some landings I do exactly that.
