A lot of pilots died in the days before instruments. That's why they are there now. I can't tell you how many lives were saved by the invention of the valve trombone. Trying to reach 7th position on a slide in a typical GA cockpit so often resulted in loss of control. |

Then you shouldn't have problems navigating without instruments, as you said earlier, because it's all explained in there. It's the first chapter only. The methods are simple. Carrying them out in the real world is very tedious and awkward. I used to do it, but I don't do it much anymore. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

Carraba's and Outback have the same parent company. Notice that
they frequently (not all the time) share parking lots. |

Let me see here........excuse me while I do the math :-))) 557 newsgroups? He's not a troll. He has a serious problem that far exceeds anything I've ever seen! Talk about addicted to newsgroups.... 70K+ messages? Gadzooks, how on earth does he have time to sim? That works out to 24 per day, assuming every day. What about food - no, wait. He eats at the sim or the computer. Sleep? Work? Live social contact that doesn't involve a sim or a computer? |
