Bob A "REAL" flaming liberal is one that needs a wing runner! Gary, what would our old friend E9 say??? I'm sure he would have Dog Piled this thread with colorful metaphors! |

Is that only true in a vacuum? Or from a short height. Heavier objects fall faster in the real world. Not if they're the same size and shape. Really, they don't. That was what Galileo was demonstrating. This video shows the real reason we went to the moon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oo8TaPVsn9Y More important question if you had mounted firearms on a glider how much would the glide angle be reduced by recoil? And does the effect change at different speeds? When I first started working for the phone company in NJ, I shared an office with a guy who had flown P47 Thunderbolts in the war. He said that when all eight .50-caliber guns were fired, it felt like the airplane stopped in midair. Jim Beckman |
