FN FAL said:Unstabilized runways are the worst, they're down right jiggy.
Annie said:I did a quick Google search on pax Frank Jellinek. There is someone with his name, who looks like him, who liked to compete in pro/am race car competitions. I wonder if that has some relationship to the speed on approach?
What??
If your doing over 200 kts at 300 feet you'd better be "leaving" the runway and not landing on it.
Annie said:When did trying to understand the human factors involved in an aircraft trajedy, require one to "get real" (whatever that means)? Excuse me, but I happen to know, that many scientists consider the possibility of systemic relationships--be they human, or mechanical an essential factor in the equation.

:beer:KILGORE: "It's hairy. Got some pretty heavy ordnance there. I lost a few recon ships there now and again. Is that goddang village Vin Drin Dop or Lop ? dang gook names all sound the same. Mike, do you know anything about that point at Vin Drin Dop ?"
MIKE: "That's a fantastic peak. "
KILGORE: "Peak ?"
MIKE: "About six feet. It got both the long right with left slide.
It's unbelieveable, it's just Tube City..."
KILGORE: " Well why the hell didn't you tell me that before ? There aren't any good peaks in this whole, shootty country. It's all goddang beach break."
MIKE: "It's really hairy in there,sir. That's where we lost McDonnel...they shot the hell out of us. That's...Charlie's point."
WILLARD: "Sir, we can go there tomorrow at dawn. There's always
a good off-shore breeze in the morning."
CHIEF: "We may not be able to get the boat in. The river may be too
shallow."
KILGORE: " We'll pick your boat up and put it down like a baby, right
where you want it. This is First of the Ninth, Air Cav,son- airmobile.
I can take that point and hold it as long as I like -- and you can
get anywhere you want up that river that suits you, young captain.
Hell, a six foot peak.
You take a gunship back to division -- Mike, take Lance with you -- let
him pick out a board, and bring me my Yater Spoon -- the eight six."
MIKE: "I don't know, sir -- it's -- it's --"
KILGORE: "What is it soldier?
MIKE: "It's pretty hairy in there - it's Charlie's point..."
KILGORE: "Charlie don't surf !"
