Not relavant to this newsgroup. Instrument approaches and landings are not relevant to a piloting newsgroup? Why? And even if it was a pilot isn't landing a Cat 3c airplane, the computer is. Then why does the pilot have to be instrument rated? How many times have you landed in zero visibility? You don't just push a button. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

At least that is a consistent thing, for him. Yeah... He is quite a phenomenon. I have killfiled him, but when he makes a stupid one-liner remark that is easily and factually refuted with a link, I just can't help myself. |

I did, but that was not making his responses go away, so I have changed tactics. I'm going to keep on him, let him dig a deeper hole, and give him more rope. You ought to try it. It's like shooting fish in a barrel, with a 12 gauge shotgun. g -- Jim in NC |

It's like shooting fish in a barrel, with a 12 gauge shotgun. g The problem with that is you keep getting splattered with fish guts. What I should do is write a macro or program to check threads and then kill file the whole thread. It's amazing how the number of posts drops. OTOH I've always had a tendency to answer some out in left field questions with a smart assed remarks and I seriously doubt I'm alone in that. That being the case I'd hate to see some unwary soul led astray. Roger Halstead (K8RI & ARRL life member) (N833R, S# CD-2 Worlds oldest Debonair) www.rogerhalstead.com |

You don't just push a button. Yes, you do. It's required. Cat 3c is an autoland. The pilot is there to monitor the electronics. He does not land the plane. |
