Bernoulli,
61.55 does not apply to single pilot aircraft. When simulated instrument conditions occur, a single pilot aircraft does not then come under 91.55 because its certificate does not change.

I knew that already. I was born this way. :p
Yeah, I'm still waiting after all these years:o
The misquote from Socrates (about knowing nothing) was really about the word relationships, not about remembering the quotation. But I'll admit I answered based on being...
So, what's different about the 25th time around the pattern, other than your own boredom? I fly out af an uncontrolled airport eighty miles from another one with the same CTAF frequency and the same runway headings. You can hear the calls from both airports loud and clear.
I don't have an answer to your question about compressor stalls, but I can't help but wonder why, in the space of one day I've suddenly seen on two different forums, a well known Dan Quayle quotation attributed to Bill Clinton. A quick search on the web turns up this quote being attributed also...
a- v- 8er,
You said the price worked out about the same, but you didn't say anything about operating cost. If you plan on getting a hundred hours or so before selling the plane, it probably doesn't make that much difference, but over the long haul a plane that costs $10 to $20 and hour more to...
throttlejockey, You must be reading some press release the rest of us haven't seen.
CitationCapt, I wish I could find a source for this, sorry. I believe the Mustang is planned to use some variant of the FJ33. The FJ44 is way too heavy.
While the welding process was a major factor in the...
Black because...
Henry Ford said so.
If you look in the avionics bay of an airliner, I think you'll see nearly all the boxes are black. It's easy; It's cheap; It dries fast (the Ford reason).
But there might be another reason for calling the recorders "black boxes". "Black Box" is a...

No, it will not. The sun does not have a consciousness, so it can’t have a will. Now perhaps the sun shall rise tomorrow, but I’m not ready to concede that yet, either. We'll have to see how today goes, first. :D
As always, you can't get something for nothing. Much of the induced drag eliminated by having a positive lift canard is gained back because the canard is always at a higher angle of attack (closer to stall) than the wing.
Throwing good money after bad, there. The plane as built was as I described.
I worked on the Starship program for the company that built power supplies for the Glass cockpit, so I absorbed a fair amount of scuttlebutt during and after the completion of the program. The consensus was that there was just too much bleeding edge technology aboard, that made the plane far too...

Invest in an airline? Ha
When a stock plummets, it isn't "on sale". Rather the market is telling you what it thinks it is actually worth. When an airline stock goes to a small fraction of its previous value instedad of to zero, it's often because there are always a few investors (even pros) who...

What you do with pages like this is - Go up to the URL box and edit out the path back to the root of the home page, like this: http://www.monmouth.com/~bcornet/. Or just click on any link titled "home". From the content and tone of the root home page you can usually get a pretty...
starchkr,
I have no first hand knowledge myself because I'm still just a wannabe, but...
I remember reading a post at least six months to a year ago by someone who had turned down your own company or tried to postpone till a latter class, and then tried to get hired some time later. He came to...
Now why would you recognize that it's satire and then proceed to treat it as a serious article. Perhaps if I explained the punch line --
Buying the second cheapest ticket enhances the safety of the flight, so... If he pays more, his flight is safer than that of the guy next to him who paid less...
I'd bust out
10 years? Any nearly sane person would be permanently cured of the desire to fly within 10 months.
I'd take this plane,or maybe this one, stripped for extra range, and with almost all useful load devoted to extra fuel tanks. This way I could obey the no other airport prohibition...
So are Heavies.
Actually 28VDC is just the standard power bus voltage. The avionics boxes themselves each have thier own DC-DC converters that supply all sorts of voltages to the avionics +5, +/- 12, +3.2, +6000, whatever the particular applications require.
