Still better than completely hollow like you. Slips are slips no matter where you are and slips, while aerodynamically identical have different references. Of course they have different references... visual references, that is: In one, you look straight ahead, in the other, you look slightly to one side. I'm fully aware that this difference is enough for simple minded like you to think they are two different maneuvres. Yeah, right backpedaling boi. Bertie Bert, first time Little Luke took me up in his Velocity, he failed to inform me that the rudder system is different from conventional aircraft in both design and performance. In most aircraft the rudder pedals are interconnected. Pushing down on one rudder pedal causes a corresponding movement in the opposite (upward) direction of the other. LL says to me, let's slip this baby home. Taje the center stick." Uh, like first of all, I'm not LHanded. Then I find the rudder pedals. lol I was quick to note that the rudder pedals in the Velocity operate independent from each other,what I they failed to notice is that much of the sensory feedback with respect to rudder deployment is ****faced gone. Push one rudder pedal in the Velocity and the other remains motionless. Cessna and Piper pilots like me learn to rest both feet on the rudder pedals to get a feel for the rudder position. Transferring this habit to the Velocity invites a common mistake V the unintentional deployment of one (or both!) rudder(s) in flight. I passed the slip back to Little Puker. Yes, I've heard about this feature in that type of airplane. I'm going to get a chance to fly a Long Eze pretty soon and I believe it works the same way. You can use both together as a speed brake, yes? Bertie Do those fins deploy in only one direction -- ie,outward, or inward -- and are spring loaded to neutral? Is the change in the airplane's axis pointing direction just caused by the drag increase when one side or the other is deployed? It looks to me almost like the way the MU aircraft used spoilers on top of the wings instead of ailerons (I think). |

Will we have pattern turns, cross country turns, sight seeing turns, high altitude turns etc. Taking your moronic Okie logic the other direction, why not simply just call everything a maneuver, which would cover taxiing, takeoffs, landings, turns, slips, stalls, lazy eights, ascents, descents, chandelles, spins, immelmanns, barrel rolls, and dozens of other things. I'm just curious as to how Okies like you rise to the crème de la dumb level. Inbreeding and fetal alcohol syndrome only can account for so much. Are there monuments to stupidity in every town? Do you have museums dedicated to stupidity that you regularly attend? Are there churches where stupidity is preached from the pulpit? Are there clubs and civic organizations where stupidity is fostered to a fine art form? |
