Erik, If you have read MS threads, I'm sure you realize you'r falling into the same trap many of us have fallen into: MX does not at all want to learn. He wants to make trouble here. He is deadly afraid of flying. Yet you still take him seriously. What's really sad is I subscribed to this yesterday. I started reading through posts and empathizing with the poor *******. It took about 12 minutes of reading and some replies to lose that empathy. I still like to pretend I have faith in people |

swag writes: so didyou when you did your "test flight?" In the sim? No, there was no bump. You won't encounter a bump from wake turbulence unless you are doing a steep turn ( like 45 degree bank angle which should take 19 seconds to go 360) Why would the steepness of a turn matter? A 2-G turn is rather close to the load limits for many types of aircraft. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. The steepness matters for two reasons 1. the time of the turn matters to whether the wake turbulance is dissipating 2. the bank angle changes the rate of descent of the wake So if you are doing a standard rate turn that takes two minutes, you will not hit youur wake. But if you do a 2g turn (around 45 degrees) it should take 19 seconds and you will hit your wake. 3. a 2 g turn should not be close to the load limits of any airplane certificated in the standard (let alone the utility) category. My airplane ( a P337) is certificated as standard, not utility. the load limits ar +3.8 flaps up. And is approved for turns up to 60 degrees. |

Question to Mxmanic
A 60 degree bank produces 2 G's. A 45 degree bank produces 1.414 G's.

Good morning or good evening depending upon your location. I want to ask you the most important question of your life. Your joy or sorrow for all eternity depends upon your answer.
