There is no difference in stick forces or "break out" as you're calling
it
between CAS, DEL, or MECH modes. Perhaps you're talking about the
feedback
force that is added when the stick is displaced from its neutral
position?
That is certainly not a "break out."

That is, too. That's the definition of break out force, the force you
have to overcome to leave the deadband.

What do you think break out force is?


The way he seems to be describing it there is an additional force imparted
beyond the normal feedback when the stick is displaced from neutral. Of
course, I've got no formal training in TPS terms, so perhaps I
misunderstand.

You didn't know, so you assumed I must not know. The only misunderstanding
here is your confucion at why being a dick didn't work for you. That is a
very common practice amoung pilots with more ego than knowledge. In the
past I would have just walked away and left you to your ignorance, but I
have learned over my years on usenet that walking away will only embolden
you to be even more of a prick, wood man. (see Weiss' posts)

This discussion is going round and round, but my point is...

No it isn't, you have allready spun into the ground wood man.

I did not comment on your ability to operate the F-18 wood man. You
insutled me in assuming that because you do not know something that I
could
not know it.

What we have here is... Failure to communicate. I never made that
assumption... At least not publically.

Sure you did. It is very insulting for you to ask me to admit I am wrong
when i am correct and you just don't know. You come off as a prick,
instead
of that big dick F-18 thing, same for little blo monkey.


Okay, I've asked you several questions trying to get answers... About rotary
inverters, about Bob and Mary etc... You seem to refuse to answer or to
educate, but instead break down to insults.

Meanwhile several others on the NG have asked me to stop because they're
tired of reading this tripe (probably getting nearly as bad as those "KILL
THE DEMON BUSH..." posts).

Since you've degraded into throwing around personal insults, I'm going to
oblige them.

The only good thing I got out of this discussion is a chance to learn from
Mary Shafer. Good day, sir.

Woody, you will never get answers from tarver. He genuinely feels anyone who
disagrees with him is personally insulting or attacking him. He uses this to
justify vulgar, crude and rude personal attacks. He really does believe
subsituting vitriol for independently verifiable proof of his claims is a
proper form of debate. A google search of his behaviour in this and several
other forums will prove this.

As for the rotary inverter I seriously doubt it exists in the F/A-18 since
solid state inverters are more reliable.

....which really bothers those of us who disagree with him, *while*
insulting and attacking him.

Let us agree that I know where the F/A-18 stick breaks out at (20#) and
that you and monkey are clueless.

Once again, the Tarverbot shows his OWN cluelessness.

Not me. It is unsafe for the operator..............

mmm lets look at a tarver quote from the archives....

So, Splaps boy, wanna tell me how an autothrottle is going to slow an
airplane down?

Retarding the throttles will cease the engines from adding thrust, my silly
rodent. Reducing pilot workload gives the Operator more time to deploy
Spoiler Flaps into a Speed Brake configuration.

Not like your Piper at all.

Well, THAT was an insult. Nice work.

Not me. It is unsafe for the operator to not know that the stick breaks out
to activate the mechanical backup. There is no guarantee the failure of the
electric controls will cause the force transducer to deactivate. Once agian
a pilot is so ignorant as to believe they know more about how an airplane
works than a systems engineer for that airplane.


This is NOT a safety of flight issue, and you couldn't possibly be a systems
engineer for the Hornet.

Tarver's engineering capabilities are predominantly associated with
repairs of the domestic toaster.

You are insulting and offensive in either case, Chad.
