So what does one do in an a/c which has an engine turning the

And which aircraft would that be? AFAIK, all aircraft engines rotated the same
way - clockwise from the pilot's point-of-view.


You think so?...amazing indeed...you sound most assured...I'd
have felt damned uneasy if it had been me making that big bald
statement to the whole world. WooHoo.


You are aware of the meaning of "AFAIK", are you not? If I am incorrect, you are
invited to enlighten me. Post snide comments, with no correcting information,
does not advance the discussion.


Nor does your snide remark of "And which a/c would that be".

Of course I know AFIK...I merely objected to the abruptness of
your remark that's all.

We're mostly mature people here and sharp remarks (or those
which can be mistaken for them) aren't needed.

Now then, I don't know which a/c have right turning and which
have left turning engines but I've certainly heard of both.
