I found I could easily control my aircraft by using flaps instead of
elevator.


That was my thought regarding my previous flaps question.......nice to get
these follow ups! Thx.

Regards the no control situation, that's how the DHL Airbus survived the RPG
attack in Bagdad a few months ago. They apparently had only throttles and
landing gear for control.

With all your ranting you're not looking like a shining star either.

Sheesh, I'm sorry I posted anything.


....as long as it stops the bickering.

Dale,

Nice job handling your emergency situation! I'm glad it turned out O.K.

Part of the fun here is watching threads get twisted and turned by the
local "experts"

Happy Flying!

Ah, yes...the Usenet variation on the old "takes one to know one" or "I know
you are, but what am I?" retorts.

How clever of you...
