Wow! You're hitting homeruns! You know chicks dig the longball.

Since you are correct again, D' will get you a Lan Chile B767 AND a Pokemon B747!!!

How's that for good clean fun! Oh you can't beat fun at the old ballpark. Holy cow!

Alrighty boys, you're out fartin' around in your shiny new Cessna 152. Doing stalls. The chick you're with is not enjoying herself and is getting sick. Your attention is diverted for a split second, when you look up you have entered into a spin (Not a "No spin zone"). Oh great, puke all over right? Well, you gotta get out of this spin before cleaning anything up now. How will you recover?

FedEx AirMaster · 01-03-2006, 02:06 AM

It depends on the direction of spin...Do reverse correction by pushing max throttle to recover the stall, second, apply rudder pressure to the oppsite direction while turning the aircraft in the same direction...or maybee..

Ah what the hell!! I don't know what the heck i'm talking about.

No kiddin! Next!

Spin recovery:

Aileron neutral.
Add rudder in direction opposite of spin.
When rudder hits the stop, briskly push forward on the yoke, breaking the stall.
GENTLY pull out of the dive.

Just don't do what JFK Jr. did near Martha's Vineyard

Wow you guys are kickin' butt now! I'm almost afraid to make these questions harder. I might have to if you guys have aspirations of commercial flying.

Oh, by the way. For the right answer, Kardar will buy you a beautiful Braniff Concorde in hot pink!!! Wow!!!!!!

Ok Mr. Smart guy, if you were in JFK Jr's shoes, what would you have done?

I would have taken a ferry

Jr should not have been flying in those conditions without an instrument rating

What would you have done Captain?

Ferry or Car?

You're right, he shouldn't have flown over the ocean at night without an instrument rating. If you ever get into a situation inadvertently you got to fly straight and level and do a 180 back to visual conditions.

Alrighty then, how aboot this one. You're airplane is full of ice, you're coming in to land, what flap setting should you use. You are flying a smaller plane, single or light twin.

Juneau_Flyer_18 · 01-07-2006, 03:27 AM

None? to keep up airspeed?, But i dont know, Just my guess

kardar757 · 01-07-2006, 10:25 AM

Juneau is correct

Ice build-up reduces the amount of lift produced, and increases the stall speed

So when landing use no flaps and increase your usual landing speed by 10-20 knots...and try to find the longest runway in the area

Capt?

I want my Hot Pink Concord to have Pokemon crap on it!
