Actually, what CNN did last night was take a Cirrus up and recreate the
flight including trying to make the turn...the difference is, CNN did it at 2000 feet, which is what sane pilots would do, such that they didn't tangle their prop in anybody's furniture. I thought that was pretty cool of them. For CNN to do that is certainly not typical. One would expect the story to go something like this: "We were going to take this plane through the same area of the accident, but GA is much to dangerous for us to do that. Instead we thought we would re-enact through this sophisticated flight training software." Insert picture of MS Flight Sim Here Show Flight at excessive speed in a high G turn in narrow passage here ------ If they did infact fly through at 2kft on a GA aircraft, I commend them because it is certainly not what one is accustomed to seeing from CNN. -- Mike Flyin'8 PP-ASEL Temecula, CA http://flying.4alexanders.com |
