With the advent of flight simulations bringing virtual flight to the masses new and exciting forms of aerodynamics have emerged!  In fact Aces High are full of these new aeronautics experts now.


Aerowhinenamics:
experts in this field provide brilliant colorful analysis often around a favorite airplane and why it’s porked. 


Aerowrongnamics:
experts in this field of study are some of the greatest geniuses the world has ever seen. 


Aerodumbnamics:
this is a cousin to the field of aerowrongnamics.  Experts here however don’t have to resort to plowing through Newton at all. 


Aeromythnamics:
(Sometimes also known as Aerofairytalenamics) The experts in this field of the science of flight scoff at the other experts because they know that the TRUE measure of flight performance has nothing to do with physics at all.

that was CLASSIC,  saving it to my Aces High Facts, Humor and Funny Memories Archive Folder

thanks for that, dtango  :aok  :cheers:

Skuzzy needs to sticky this post  :D


ack-ack

I was thinking the exact same thing.

But the problem is  I keep asking my self a question, and conclude one of us doesn't have one, so hence I'm confused if I should sticky it, and if I did sticky it what would be it's downward acceleration do to the speed of internet travel causing its collision with other relative thinkers.

I'm not sure, but I can guarantee that the 190 would still all be porked...   :D

That's priceless Tango! :)

Hopefully a slight, good natured ridicule as this will encourage more rational course of thought in the future. :)

What?? You don't believe in UFO's either???  Blasphemy.

BTW- you're to blame for planting the seed for my OP.  "Aeroflynamics".  :aok

I think I used the term "Aeroflymanics"...   :)

You forgot that for a downward motion, a sticky would induce a gyroscopic force that would cause the BBS to rotate about the OP's moment of intent.

LOL just kidding, nice post dtango  :aok

Right, and that's why he missed a subgenus of the Aerowhineamics genus: the Aeroluftwhineamicist.

This guy's going to come up with reasons the 109 and 190 are porked. Mind, they're easy to confuse with Aerowrongnamicists (or even the much easier-to-identify "physicus oblivious" popularly known as the dynamoramus) since they're likely to contend that wingloading is immaterial to sustained turn rates and the a minor increment in prop pitch can cause a vomit inducing turnrate. It's best to steer clear of all members of the order "oblivious voluminous" unless you're willing to devote a forty-page thread to their uplift. Some might claim success in such endeavours but darkness proves very persistent, i.e., some might be wrong.

You'll note I've just proposed a taxonomy for the clueless. We could extend that but taxonomy is, frankly, taxing.
Some say revenge is a dish best served cold. I say it's usually best served hot, chunky, and foaming. Eventually, you will all die in my vengeance vomit firestorm.

That is unless at the moment of intent, the OP was already 90 degrees forward to the center of the universe thereby implying an "Aeromythnamics" effect on all comments relative to the "sticky".  In that case, then, February would have 28.

hmmmm, the sniper i sortof imagine it would've had to have been .75 cal ATLEAST to get that far....but in a ( mustang for example ) you would have to acount for the spead of the bullets and the convergence rate, so a plane killing another plane @ 200yds is EXTREMELY unlikely...    :old:

~slayer~
I really hope you were kidding.



 :aok Nice post dtango.
