First of all, if that maneuver would "press the limits of even the most experienced test pilot," I would have to question both his experience and expertise. This is out of your league, Fairbairn, plain and simple. You're a proven quagmirist know-it-nothing with an overblown ego and a peanut head for a brain.

Your "expertise" extends to never building an LSA with a measly 80hp Jabiru P.O.S. Stick your head back inside Mary's drums where comfort awaits you. |

You claim to be an "aeronautical engineer." I became one probably before you were out of diapers and have been involved with airplane, missiles and space systems for the last 50 years. You must have flunked basic aerodynamics and certainly pilot training. No, I haven't built an LSA, but have restored (and still flying a real postwar classic that i have been flying for the last 40 years. plus, I got my private in 1960 and have been flying ever since. The kookbabble that you spew has zero basis in reality. BTW -- my experience with data processing in the missile field tells me that the global warmists are nothing but a bunch of charlatans who misuse advanced data processing techniques. |

Hani Hanjour, the pilot of Flight 77, was so incompetent he could not fly a Cessna in August, but in September managed to fly a 767 at excessive speed into a spiraling, 270-degree descent and a level impact of the first floor of the Pentagon, on the only side that was virtually empty and had been hardened to withstand a terrorist attack, merely demonstrates that people can do almost anything once they set their minds to it. (Un)True? He was a rated Commercial Pilot... That means he had well over 300 hours PIC. |
