Due to reasons of crapness, you should bin this [ME] like the industry did 😉

Is that right – what’s the problem? Like many others I dare say, I got it bundled with a new desktop PC in 2001 – what’s a good alternative platform for a stand-alone home PC?

Please correct me where I go wrong here – but I have in my mind the piece of info that because of carburetion on the Spitfire/Hurrican vs fuel injection on the 109 the English pilots had to do the half roll to dive whereas the German pilots could simply push the stick forward into a dive – saving precious seconds at difficult moments.

Makes me wonder/query whether there is/was any cause and effect between inverting the vee and fuel injection. And of course the related question, could carburettors be fitted to an inverted vee?

In other words were these two different approaches deliberate design principles related to fuel injection vs carburettion – and inter alia related to fighter design principles?

Just now packing it in – 11:45pm on the 24th – all wrapped, all sorted, off to crash and then – the big day! Merry Christmas everyone. 😉

Ever subtle Snapper – and anyway, I like fruitcake, and those Christmas tarts full of crushed … stuff

Delightfully non-PC thank you Whalebone (always reliable 😉 )

Merry Christmas to all, and may the debates and humour renew themselves in 2005.
And may I suggest a good resolution that will help in that regard? say after me: “I will, I will, I will … read up on irony” :rolleyes:

All the best everyone; Don, Wellington NZ

So there’s more than one benefit to not paying taxes – any more?

Welcome back Anna – always go broad, dial-up only brings you the world-wide-wait. Nice to see your shiny wings again. 🙂
