over the knee, your post is the dumest excuse I have ever heard from anyone as
to why you should not be called stew ped for nothing at all about the subject you are claiming expertise in. just admit you didn't know squat about the subject, and move on. From: otnmbrd Date: 8/8/2004 12:35 PM Eastern Daylight Time Message-id: . net Watching Jax argue about the proper usage of of various words/phrases (pilotage/piloting, ded reckoning/dead reckoning, flying blind/IFR, etc.) is always amusing. Generally, the fact that he gets hung up on one interpretation and can't accept or see other interpretations, simply tells us he doesn't know what he's talking about. On the rare occasions when he goes into some navigation exercise or procedure it becomes absolutely clear, he doesn't. otn |

shen, every last country signatory to the radio treaty of 1920 (1919?) required
their radio stations to broadcast their call sign, frequency and city every ten minutes they were on the air. This was done specifically as an aid to navigation for ships at sea and aircraft in the air. recreational boats often did not have any such equipment until into the 1970's, 1980's and in some cases 1990's. Lots of recreational vessels were lost due to hitting rocks in reduced visability conditions until lorans and later gps's became common. Stories of vessels lost such were common in the boating magazines until the late 1980's. back in the 1920's, ships (and aircraft, at least some of them) had RDF, specifically to avoid the dangers of DRing. G Not everywhere, jax, and by this statement, we realize that this is another area you know little about. Shen |

gene, any clown can read the numbers from the side of an aircraft on the
ground. you, however, are not capable of flying left seat. unless, of course, your pratterings on this thread were purposeful lies and you really aren't as stew ped as you pretend to be. now knock it off. btw dood you should NEVER get in the left seat of an aircraft. you will die, screaming. Yep, he's wrong, yet again..... N7136S and I had a beautiful flight! Unlimited vis, light (X-)winds, and lots of sights to see on and off the beach.... sadly, not much in the way of fish spotting.

gene, if you would be so kind as to email your ssn, I will be glad to report
you to the FAA as one who claims to fly in IFR conditions without required instruments, just blindly wandering around in airspace. that way we can let the FAA explain the rules to you, as they suspect, later revoke, your license. btw dood you should NEVER get in the left seat of an aircraft. you will die, screaming.

ROFLMAO Jax, I am not claiming expertise in anything. Only YOU are dumb enough to try that, and YOU are constantly shown to be at a level at least ten points below "novice". otn |

Subject: Huh? Diesel engines don't last 800 hours before major repairs??
From: (JAXAshby) Date: 08/08/2004 13:56 Pacific Standard Time Message-id: shen, every last country signatory to the radio treaty of 1920 (1919?) required their radio stations to broadcast their call sign, frequency and city every ten minutes they were on the air. This was done specifically as an aid to navigation for ships at sea and aircraft in the air. recreational boats often did not have any such equipment until into the 1970's, 1980's and in some cases 1990's. Lots of recreational vessels were lost due to hitting rocks in reduced visability conditions until lorans and later gps's became common. Stories of vessels lost such were common in the boating magazines until the late 1980's. All well and good. However there were many areas of the world, where the coverage for RDF was poor and not all charts carried the exact locations of all transmitters. To all this, add the corrections needed for using stations, inland, with great distance, and, the skill of the operator and proper alignment of equipment and you'd find any number of limitations associated with it's use. I.e., it wasn't a cure-all, just another aid that had to be used with caution. By the 70's, a high percentage of recreational boaters in the US were beginning to use Loran, as it didn't generally require the skill that RDF did. Shen |

take what ever you want, gene. you are hopeless. if I were to shine a
flashlight in your eyes, I would see the back of your skull. gene, just admit you didn't then and don't now know squat about navigation, air or sea, and be done with it. I take it, then, that you are admitting you were and are wrong. -- 23' Grady White, out of Southport, NC. http://myworkshop.idleplay.net/cavern/ Homepage http://www.southharbourvillageinn.com/directions.asp Where Southport,NC is located. http://southharbourvillageinn.linksysnet.com Real Time Pictures at My Marina http://www.thebayguide.com/rec.boats Rec.boats at Lee Yeaton's Bayguide |
