People who are stupid in their youth will also be stupid in their old age.


Unless they get a pilot's license, in which case old age becomes
unlikely.

Thanks for the link George, Did you write this? Its a nice piece of
work , but as another poster mentions, oil should be included in the
MT wt, as should unusable fuel. As you prolly know I wrote my own in
Excel which can be downloaded (along with some other applications) at
http://www.straightandleveldownunder.net/index.html

Mine, I think is more idiot proof ( it had to be , I wrote it
basically for myself) and gives clear error messages if any
parameters are exceeded. It includes oil and unusable fuel in the MT
wt, but you still enter total fuel as that is what you measure when
you dip your tanks.

Doesn't look like an engine failure or spin to me. The aircraft was
overweight, though.


How the hell would you know what either engine failure or a spin looks
like?

Remember. You can't and don't fly.
I'd guess that this was an aft CofG.with all that that implies to the
pilots here...


MX's idea of an aft CG is leaning back in his chair as he yanks his
joystick.

Which could mean leaning back his chair... What a picture!

Thank God he's not my upstairs neighbor, and by a comfortable distance.

Peter :-)))

Getting out of your bedroom and walking to the local airfield to go
for a fly will immensely increase your fitness, your knowledge and
your self esteem.


But if I did that, what excuse would the boys' club here use to dismiss my
postings then?


Ah, so, that's why you keep blathering here? To amuse the "boy's club?"

We dismiss your posting because you're a clueless poser. Everybody who
tells you that here actually flies airplanes, poser, but somehow you
presume to know more about flying than everybody despite the fact that
you can't/don't/won't fly.

Is anything I just said unclear, poser?

Why would I try something stupid?


Because you routinely do stupid things anyway.

No, Anthony. You're just a ****ing idiot who doesn't know **** from

That really is the most succinct and accurate description of poster on
this thread.

I've decided not to bother explaining it to him. For about $40/hr US,
he can get ground school or flight lessons from proven pilots and
qualified instructors, like the rest of us have.

Until then, he's a poser.

You're confusing acquired knowledge with intelligence.


And you're simply confused.

But at least Dudley's logged infinitely more flight and instruction
hours than you have.

Which, for the former, could also be said for anybody who's taken a 30
minute discovery flight for that matter.

Poser.
