Actually it is possible to approach the smoothness of Bob Hoover.
Although Bob is one of the finest pure stick drivers I've ever seen,
there is nothing magical or even difficult about the way Hoover handles
an airplane. What Bob does is based on a solid knowledge of control
dynamics and an ability to predict based on hundreds of hours of
concentrated practice.
Bob would be the first to tell you that after all the fan fare about his
flying ability has been considered, what it all boils down to is using
the simple basics correctly.


Yes, I've heard him say this too. And it's true.


It's as simple as that. ANY pilot possessing normal coordination skills
and the desire to learn how to do things correctly coupled with a mind
set that is geared to practice can fly an airplane every bit as smoothly
and expertly as a Bob Hoover.

I'll tell you the truth. Through the years, I've seen Bob in all kinds
of moods when dealing with people. I'm not at all sure he would know how
to react to Anthony :-))

Not much chance ofthat, unless he atually went to Anhony's house.

I think he'd just smile condescendingly and walk away. :-)

It's really easy to pour a glass of water while rolling the sim.

Question to ponder for the day :-)) Aerobatic Perspective!!!!

When you roll an airplane using your desktop flight simulator you are
not actually rolling an airplane but rolling an image of that airplane
on a monitor in front of you. Now this poses an interesting problem
concerning perspective.
Let's do a 1/2 roll to inverted on your simulator and attempt to perform
an inverted left turn.
Try this while viewing the horizon from INSIDE the cockpit and note if
what you are seeing is what you would be seeing in a real airplane.
Now switch to an outside view of the airplane inverted looking at it
right up the tail and begin a left inverted turn.
Note any differences between the two views and explain what's happening.
This is an interesting experiment in perspective.

Well, in anthony's case, a simulated glass of water, maybe.

Have you ever considered the possibility that Anthony himself could be
simulated?
