Re: Effect of speed and altitude? on stall AoA

THIS theory DOES get into discrete numbers...
How's that?

Re: Effect of speed and altitude? on stall AoA

I never studied or used a model that considers that a fluid is anything other than a continuum. Ideal gas law? PV=nRT? What does it have to do? It is still taking the gas as a continuum (even if you have the n for the number of moles, which you can easily replace by the mass and molecular weight). ...

Re: If a frog had wings...

Do we think the anti bug-on-the-windshield system will work at higher air speeds?
I don't know speed, but iced up must be painful.

I'm more curious where they found that SAAB 2000.
In Sweden probably?

Re: Saab? Overrun in the Wild Northwest

5. My comment MIGHT involve a little sarcasm?: What do you think? No! [/sarcasm] 7. My question- why are there so few RJ over runs IN GENERAL: Still totally valid. Because they land in the same runways that are good for 737s, A320s and MD-80s (and many times even bigger planes), which gives them ex...

Re: VATSIM voice

the audio is excellent.
So it's very unrealistic.
Maybe not for an airliner flying IFR on Vatsim.

For a rental with ragged out radios at a low altitude...
Whaaaaat?

Re: MSFS is back

Gabriel did his deal of always double posting stuff at both fora and 3BS missed it as a quality discussion broke out here
Fixed

Re: 2 former pilots...

The pilots should be fired NOT for simultaneous filming, BUT for deciding to SHARE the video. THAT is an exabit of dangerous decision making. Beautiful clear night, ILS probably tuned in- autopilot likely on, full situational awareness of air traffic via the radio, DDGAIMs engaged, and too far out ...

Re: MSFS is back

I agree, but I'd say that number has to be a minimum, not an average. Playing with it averaging 10 FPS but dropping to 1 or 2 when there are a lot of clouds is not fun.
Yep, agree, minimum FPS.

Very similar to that is the belief that "new and different" always equals "better". I work in the IT field where that attitude is pervasive, especially on the programming side of things. There's a new tech out every 15 minutes and if you don't know and use it you're worthless. I...

Re: Effect of speed and altitude? on stall AoA

I can't tell you much about molecules. ALL of aerodynamics and fluid mechanics, including the proverbial Navier Stokes equations assume that the fluid is a continuum, not made up of little pieces. Which of course is not true, but boy how well it works!!! Subsonic, supersonic, hypersonic in the high ...
