Twisting the words doesn't mean you are correct.

Unlike you I am not so anal as to spend the time deriving a 6 digit
number for something that is obvious to the most casual reader
to be a small number.

A 38° difference. A difference in the "wrong" direction.

So the pressure must have been much higher at 3000 feet, according to the
reasoning given in your previous post.

You either do not understand or are unteachable. Perhaps this
is why you are limited to simming. I talked about inversions. I talked
about temperature and pressure for a *given* air mass. All you can do
is diss everything anyone says in a futile attempt to protect your
credibility.

You've already admitted that you don't know. No need to repeat it.

I didn't "admit" anything and twisting the words doesn't mean you've
"won".

Not always. Not at all always.

That's why I said "overall." It's a general rule, not an absolute rule.

"Always" just doesn't deal with reality. Works on a sim, I
suppose.

Odd that you saw this word, but not the other one.

If you'd ever studied meteorology (Commercial Pilot
groundschool) you'd know that the temp falls with altitude until we
reach the tropopause. Then it starts rising until we reach the
stratopause, where it starts to fall again through the mesosphere, and
once we reach the thermosphere it rises again and keeps on rising,
though the density is so low that the actual heat content is minimal.

Yes. I had previously alluded to this.

If pressure rises, so does temperature.

Then why is the atmosphere hottest in areas of extremely low pressure?

The atmosphere is much more complex than you think.

I didn't comment on its complexity.

Yes, you did.

Liar.

So how do you explain the rather well known lapse rate?

It depends on which lapse rate you have in mind.


The one which states that as the temperature rises, the two molecules
in your head take a siesta.

When did his intelligence double to two molecules?

Same way he reproduces. Mytosis.

Now Mxs before you take off in your simulated Baron,
do you check the takeoff performance figures in the simulated flight
manual versus the lenght of runway at your simulated departure
airport?

No. According to the POH (the sim version and the real version are
the same), 4500 feet is enough for any situation, so as long as I have
at least 4500 feet, I'm fine.

4500 feet of what, pixtels?

Do you know how to work out what your density altitude is?

I have a calculator and an E6-B to work things out should that really
become necessary.

What, in case you run out of tv screen?


Real pilots do this if there is any doubt they might
not have enough distance to clear the runway or any obstacles, and
since you are so obsessed with manufacturing pretended reality I am
sure you would want to be doing this also.

I stay close enough to the center of the envelope that this is never a
factor. It's a lot easier than pushing the envelope and having to do a
truckload of calculations before every flight just to see if I can
squeak by.
