![]() "Mxsmanic" wrote Thanks! The explanation of Concorde operations is particularly interesting. I guess there are more airline pilots on the sim groups. I can see why tin-can pilots wouldn't know anything about step climbs. Fer cryin' out loud, it's "spam can" you knucklehead! Reminds me of a guy at work who always says "it's a tough road to hoe".

![]() "Mxsmanic" wrote Spam can, tin can ... whatever. Any aircraft that you can tow by hand. Do you have any idea where the name "spam can" comes from? Hint: it has nothing to do with size. If you were using the term correctly you would realize that your imaginary 747 is also technically a spam can. BDS |

This in turn is rumored to be a contraction of "spiced ham." If you were using the term correctly you would realize that your imaginary 747 is also technically a spam can. I was using the term tin can, meaning a light, flimsy, primitive aircraft. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

I think the most infuriating thing to most of us is that a great majority of your questions (especially this one), could have been answered by taking 3 seconds to type "step climb" into Google (I just checked). I understand you're looking for knowledge... do you understand that your manner chafes most of the individuals on this board? You could have saved us all a great deal of frustration and headache had you taken the few moments necessary to look up this information on your own. I understand this is against your nature, but I don't care how old you are, its time you began to learn empathy. |
