Ken ************************************************** ** Ken Did you chop power landing or land power on? Big John When I land something like a Cessna (in reality) I use minimum power so the prop is acting as a break. In the F104 sim, I crashed and burned about 10 times. IIRC, I set-up slowest speed on final, (possibly with airspeed brakes) then, near the deck, flared, cut power, and squealed the tires. I think the sim allowed a 2g vertical strike on the gear. It was quite a rush - even tho it was a sim - when I finally landed it ok. Do you do sims to? Ken ************************************************** ************ Last first. Yep. Flew the Link Trainer. Did you ever fly one? On question. If you chop power before your rolling you are going to crash. Been there. Seen that. Do you know the minimum ejection altitude with the original downward seat?? Do you wear your spurs when flying your hot sim? Big John |

I wonder if they issued a midget tech rep with his 104 sim? Big John |

"Licenses", well that depends, if you are controlled by govmonks, as you apparently are, we're about equal, however I'm a citizen who works for private corporations - for profit - and have diploma's all over the place, filed somewhere. Didn't ask about diplomas. (Note the punctuation, Mr Mensa.) I asked about licenses. How many airplane types have you flown? (Real airplanes, not simulated airplanes.) How many hours? Three, maybe? Kinda sounds like it. I tossed my log book, cuz I don't keep my Gr.1 printing anymore, just crappy paper work. Didn't ask about logbooks. Asked about licenses. You know, I do a poo-poo, and I ain't going to keep the used TP dated and filed. RULE 1, never leave a paper-work trail! Didn't ask about paperwork trails. Asked about licenses. I didn't think you had any licenses. You either never earned one, or they took it from you because you were a menace to everyone. Dan |

ANY system that allowed you a pilot's certificate is quite frankly beyond our meager ability to understand. :-) -- Dudley Henriques |
