vgbaron Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: "Basic Flying Rules" 04-12-04, 22:19z  I thought I'd copy an excerpt from The Ben Chiu Do It Yourself Flight Instruction Manual for the benefit of beginning pilots - especially TB who deals better with abstracts than technical jargon: BASIC FLYING RULE : Try to stay in the middle of the air. Do NOT go near the edges of it. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and interstellar space. It is MUCH more difficult to fly there. -= VPC OffLine Reader 2.1 =- Registered to: Vic Baron -OLR.PL v1.83- Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

RobertVA Certificates/Ratings/Crew Stations: 2. "RE: Basic Flying Rules" 04-13-04, 04:20z  Also: Tilting nose of plane down makes items on ground look bigger. Tilting nose of plane up makes items on ground look smaller. Tilting nose of plane really high makes items on ground look bigger REALLY FAST!

"RE: Basic Flying Rules" 04-13-04, 16:33z  Also - You know your landing gear is up and locked when it takes full power to taxi to the terminal. and on another note to TB - always keep the rubber side down.
