Home Slamming Down Under; Drone Slamming in AZ

How long do they need? I think 2500-3000 feet would not be enough to land
in marginal weather conditions.

I will have to contact the foremost expert on all facets of aviation, the
one and only Bill Mulcahy, again.

He reports objectively, just like Fox News. Here is a sample: "Plane
Death Dive Rattles Home."

Your favorite runway extension project is already over 5000'.

VLJs: FAA plan is to put thousands of these into the air, and mix them in
with the old GA fleet.

The FAA is not responsible for putting *any* aircraft in the air. They
just adjudicate over the ones that are. The "thousands of jets" stuff
is just hype. And yes, any VLJs that do fly will be sharing airspace
with the existing GA fleet.

Then, sprinkle in a bunch of basically untrained LSA pilots. (Read an article in GA news that a company is offering a program to get an LSA license in a week. Damn: that's less time than it takes to learn to drive a car!!!)

If you really think jets, which by definition fly high and fast, will
be mixing it up with LSA (which fly low and slow) you need to do some
more reading on the subject. The only interface would be in the traffic
pattern at (mostly) towered airports IMO.

I'm wondering, since some pilots are so concerned about mid-airs, whether home slammings occur with greater frequency.

I think *most* pilots are concerned about midairs. Ya know Lune,
instead of continually posting more of your unfounded nonsense here,
why don't you propose a "home slamming" to your
wife/girlfriend/significant other. She'd like that - and it would keep
your mind off of all those dangerous little planes waiting to crash
into your house.

In article
outaviation.com,
"Skylune" howled at the moon:

I'll bet they are highly skilled drivers, then.

As you know, Steve, Massachusetts, one of the many nanny states, is
debating RESTRICTING licenses to young, inexperienced drivers. FAA/AOPA
cabal on the other hand wants EVERYONE INTO THE AIR!!

Step right up, and get your LSA license!


Is "Skylune" another alias for "Birdstrike Bill" MulCahy?

Your "fears" had nothing to do with house slamming.

Rather, they had to do with compatibility with GA.

It would be wife... LOL. That was funny!

LOL Orval. No, Bill Mulcahy has gone insane, perhaps due to all the
airplane noise. I am not there. Yet!

Bill Mulcahy is just as crazy as Bill Boyer, who lived for years in the
fantasy land world of network television. Now he writes docudramas for
AOPA.

At least Mulcahy is fairly harmless: Its funny that he wants politicians
to support his cause, and then writes in his newletters that a "benefit"
of GA crashes is that it "eliminates" politicians.

Eclipse site says takeoff distance (over 50ft obstacle) is 2300ft at SL
airports, 3500ft at a 5,000 MSL airport. Landing distance at SL is
2200ft. That capability opens up a whole lotta airports that can safely
accomodate the jet. Additionally, the Eclipse is the quietest jet
flying with takeoff noise levels significantly lower than the current
Stage 4 requirement. Combined with its climb profile on departure the
noise footprint should be quite small.

First article covers small plane that SLAMMED into a house in Austriala.
Second covers drone that SLAMMED into a hillside near some homes. Seems
that slamming is spreading to other countries and newer forms of
aviation.
Should be really interesting when the VLJs get in on the action!

thanx for making that clear for me!!!!!!!!!!!!

is this more a serious group or is it also directed at humor?

sry for makin that sound so weird




Oh we have plenty of humor but we are laughing at Skylune not with him. You
see he once tried to learn to fly and decided he was not capable of doing
so. Now, since he isn't capable he doesn't think anyone else is either.

I also think he has some sort of unrequited crush on the head of the AOPA.
