A700

Xoooommmm tried to stick it to Adams in ANN for bringing their new
A700 aircraft to Osh without the envelope fully opened.

I guess all the manufacturers that bring new aircraft to the Paris Air
Show should also be slammed for not having fully opened their
envelopes before displaying the bird(s) or should these major
manufacturers, who might advertise in ANN, be given a PASS??

You forgot the most important thing while posting zoom related things.
"Thou shall include in the subject line, three ZZZ's, as to alert those who
don't wish to read of his zoomieness's insanity".

Do you repent? Good. I hoped so.g

Sorry about that. Forgot the rules of the game.

You notice I opened a new thread and tried to limit my comments to a
very narrow area to prevent the cat and dog fights that normally are
associated with ZZZ (see I learned).

It's no secret in the industry that Adam Aircraft has a very aggressive
engineering and flight test team, and that they flew a bunch of hours in the
days before the show just to be able to take the a/c to OSH with the gear
locked. There are plenty of people who think that rushing flight tests for
marketing purposes is not a good idea.

Funny that you didn't see the other mention of Adam, in which it was given
the Steel Cojones Award. I nominated them for that one. shrug

What areas of the envelope were not sufficiently tested for the
ferry flight(s) as conducted and how did that impact safety?

Why don't you enlighten us on what areas of the envelope you think _were_
sufficiently tested in the _two days_ after first flight in order not to
impact safety, Dave?

You're dodging the question. What areas of the envelope were
not sufficiently tested for the ferry flight(s) as conducted and
how did that impact safety? You *must* have some idea of the
envelope they'd opened prior to flying to OSH...right? So
was it sufficient for a ferry flight or not? Did they
exceed the envelope they'd cleared during the ferry? Was the
ferry flight unsafe? There are some pretty serious allegations
floating around here - I'm giving you a chance to clear them up.

You first, Juan...we're waiting.
