In a previous article, (Garyurbach) said:
Can anybody here tall me what the standard rate of turn is in a 757? Is it the same as small palnes, i.ei, is it universal at 360 degrees in 2 minutes? The big guys don't do standard rate turns, because that would involve too high a bank angle. Instead they just do 30 degree banks. As for what they're capable of, remember Tex Johnson(sp?) barrel rolled the 707 prototype (the "Dash-80"). If you don't care if the plane is usable again after the maneuver, I'm sure you could do a lot more abrupt maneuvers than that. -- Paul Tomblin http://xcski.com/blogs/pt/ The average banker could benefit tremendously from a good kick to the head at precisely-timed intervals -- Dan Holdsworth |
