OK, before I get flamed, I know that the compass needle always points to magnetic north ... Actually it always aligns with the magnetic field in which it is placed, which often means that it points roughly to magnetic north, but not always, as the geomagnetic field is quite irregular. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

You snipped the part of the post where I quoted the example, thus destroying the context my question quoted above, a very dishonest practice ... No, simply an accepted means of saving bandwidth. You snipped everything except my reply and the sentence that immediately preceded it. Why would it be dishonest for me, but not for you? Why did you do this? See above. Is this another example of how you practice the Golden Rule? Yes. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

The assertion was that there was no electricity in some aircraft. If they have typical powerplants, there is electricity. Spewing idiot, by that interpretation, there is electricity when you shuffle across the rug. That is NOT what people are talking about when they are talking about powering things. Have you not the slightest bit of common sense? snip -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |

No, simply an accepted means of saving bandwidth. You snipped everything except my reply and the sentence that immediately preceded it. Why would it be dishonest for me, but not for you? First, show how I snipped your reply and the sentence that immediately preceded it. Also, show where I claimed that I followed this so-called "Golden Rule." *You're* the one who made this claim, not me. Also, show where I claimed that it *WASN'T* dishonest for me to do so. If you're being dishonest, then according to the Golden Rule, you should be perfectly content with me being dishonest also. Also, your "accepted means of saving bandwidth" is merely a dishonest dodge in an attempt to cover up your dishonesty, while bleating on and on about how honest you really are. Why do you feel this need to be so dishonest? Why did you do this? See above. See what above? Is this another example of how you practice the Golden Rule? Yes. It shows. But if this is such an example, then you have no cause to complain about the treatment you receive here, as it is consistent with the responses you get in many of the Usenet forums in which you, um, "participate." -- dgs |

Three adds mostly redundancy rather than any additional functionality in lateral navigation. But it powers NO electronics in the plane. The assertion was that there was no electricity. I've demonstrated this assertion to be incorrect if the aircraft is powered by a typical reciprocating gasoline engine. You haven't demonstrated anything but your ignorance. |
