Default Stalls and Thoughts

Ok Dudley,

Let's get into an area of your expertise. I've always wondered this. On a
P-38, when they first came out the Allison's turned counter rotating (top
blade towards cabin, as you would expect). But after the first 12 or so
proto's and for the rest of production, they interchanged the engines. That
is each engine's top blade rotated away from the aircraft. Why? Serious,
I really want to know.

Moore, you are really becoming a flaming bore. :-))

Don't know what your problem is but I'll say it again here for both you
and any intelligent people who might read this.

My flying in jets at the Test Pilot School and everywhere else connected
with the military was as a guest of these institutions. They made both
themselves and their aircraft available to me based on the mutual respect
we maintained and maintain even today for each other. I am NOT a military
pilot, nor have I ever claimed such status.
I am a civilian pilot with a commercial, CFI, and a center thrust rating.
My expertise is now and always has been in primary instruction, aerobatic
instruction, and the flying of high performance prop aircraft.
