Subject: Ping Nesbitt
From: Tom Mosher Bertie Temperature totalizer? Did he actually use that phrase? I've been working in one state and living in another so I don't get to peruse the newsgroups very often these days. Yes he did and once again he is right and every single person who disagrees with him is a moron despite the fact no one on Earth agrees with him and he refuses to provide a citation that does. Let's face it, the poor boy is legend in his own mind. The question I have has he ever really been correct about anything aviation? Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |

The other day he said something about CAS being "Computed Airspeed", while most of us who fly think of CAS as "Calibrated Airspeed"... Even though it is a lesser-used acronym, mainly limited to the Digital Air Data Computer crowd, "Computed Airspeed" IS a valid description of the acronym/abbreviation... Correct? Yes. Useful? Who knows... |

Dan, do you remember when you were lying about averaging thermocouples by shorting them together? You would do well to stick to humor. Well...

Who knows... ARINC likes Computed Airspeed and I generally go along with them. That way I end up with certification paperwork the ACO understands. Not to say that if some military procurement required me to say, "calibrated airspeed" that I wouldn't. |

Making things up is not a good way to make yourself look good. Let's see if you can find where I said anything even remotely like that. Quote it for us in its entirety, not with the usual tarver editing. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |

It made you look foolish, Dan and then Gord made himself look foolish trying to help you. |

The only peson insisting that a thermocouple totalizer adds temperate was Rick. Besides that, Dan, your bong hit posts about averaging thermocouples had to be you lying. Noone could be that clueless and be allowed anywhere near instrumentation. |
