Tucker" wrote: You know what your problem is Dan, your a loser, you've never do a fantastic landing in your life, if you ever have done one you'd know what we're talking about. Best Landings though... Ken Lemme see. Learned to fly in the early '70s. Towed gliders for two summers. Got a Commercial license in '93. Got an Instrument rating in '95. Got a Flight Instructor Rating in '99. Got an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer's license in 2000. I own an airplane and fly it. I have six others here in the school I can fly anytime I get the time. 172s and Citabrias and a 182RG. We used to have two 150s in which I taught for some time, along with an older Champ, a Turbo 182RG, a 182, a 180, a 185, and a Comanche 250. I have had three aircraft building/ restoration projects and have a fourth in the garage. How many licenses do you have? "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. 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. 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! Dan, man to man, I get the impression you're afraid of landings, where as myself, that's what I live for. Sure some is sim's, but I managed to land an F104 on a Carrier deck, to prove it's possible, do you know why? Cuz it could save a pilots life! Ken |

You DO of course know that the 104 lands at 155 to 160kts depending on fuel weight. To my knowledge, even Tony Levier couldn't pull this one off. :-)) -- Dudley Henriques |

I need to stop on a 1000' carrier deck. ((s= 1/2 at^2 , v= at )) ((s=1000', v=230 fps , g=32 fps/s)) I need to stop in 8.7 seconds, and that requires a deacceleration of "a"= 26 fps/s == 0.8g's on the brakes. I think the 0.8g braking deacceleration is in bounds, compared to slamming on the brakes in a car. -- Dudley Henriques Regards Ken PS: I assumed the deck was dry :-). |

I never know when you post something like this as being the Mensa guy and super pilot you are, I'm assuming you could be talking a real airplane :-)) The landing distance of the F104, like any other airplane, depends on weight elevation and touchdown speed. Figuring under 19K landing GW for the zipper (about right) to land one from 50 feet to a dead stop would take about 5000 feet of runway. The ground roll is about 2500 feet using the proper landing flap setting (blown flaps must be over 85% throttle on final in the Zipper ) and using the drag chute. You can increase these numbers by a good 50% with no brakes and no chute. The Zipper FYI, is one of the hottest landing airplanes ever built. Be careful you don't get that drag chute caught up in that 3 wire there ole' buddy. Oh...I almost forgot; when that 19K fighter hits that 3 wire at 160kts, when it snaps, it should take out the entire deck crew :-))) -- Dudley Henriques |

No, I/we wrote the software I/we used, it was a collaborative effort. I never know when you post something like this as being the Mensa guy Mensa has nothing to do with it, (IMO) it's straightforward HS algebra. and super pilot you are, I'm assuming you could be talking a real airplane :-)) A good friend of mine was a CF104 fighter pilot instructor and he thought the sim was realistic. When he banked his F104, the nose started to drop, and he had to pull back for some more pitch to keep level altitude, and he looks at me and swears "damn that's realistic", of course that's a compliment. The landing distance of the F104, like any other airplane, depends on weight elevation and touchdown speed. Figuring under 19K landing GW for the zipper (about right) to land one from 50 feet to a dead stop would take about 5000 feet of runway. The ground roll is about 2500 feet using the proper landing flap setting (blown flaps must be over 85% throttle on final in the Zipper ) and using the drag chute. That's interesting and refers to a normal (low stress) landing. You can increase these numbers by a good 50% with no brakes and no chute. The Zipper FYI, is one of the hottest landing airplanes ever built. Be careful you don't get that drag chute caught up in that 3 wire there ole' buddy. Oh...I almost forgot; when that 19K fighter hits that 3 wire at 160kts, when it snaps, it should take out the entire deck crew :-))) LOL, if the pilot can walk away from the landing, it's good landing.
