To you A.FAN it is a joke and to me an insult, I went 60miles to get this medical and failed it, I have no experiance and I am so full of rage with you I could explode. HOW BLOODY DARE YOU!

My English is fine and well dont reply to any more of my threads without a apology. PRAT!

Bringing freedom to the skies is what avaition should be about, we need to be more relaxed like the yanks. De-regulating is a good thing and getting people into flying should not just be for the wealthy few.

I would not say that I like short cuts but I don’t have the medical for the JAR CPL. Then again if its cheaper and quicker I do get excited. Im not saying all those have judged me to a low level and I have some good freinds in this room, but some people really do take things a little to far some times.

As for word well I have note pad, danm xp.

Thank’s for the advice, I have more flying and my Navagation exam to do on Sunday:((((((((((((((

English, where to start…. (Scratches his nose looking skywards)

Well im not sure im much of an entertainer but I can speak and read english. Maybe for the reason that I type 50 words a min has something to do with the fact I make a few errors. For I always have done rather well in English. I did not think that you would have a problem with a few spelling errors.

I mean really I do ingnore other peoples spelling, then again I don’t think showing this to my CFI would do any good or harm except make me look a little stupid.

Thank’s for your imput and maybe one day I might come back and read this, as I will save it and take a look at it in say 2009.

How did you find the U.S training over say…………….. the u.k JAR training, I here the FAA is easier to pass???

Yes well I have not flown thier, as I always say maybe one day but the fact remains when you do go you will be required to take about an hours check-ride. I know a chap at our club who has done it, he turned three aircraft down due to thier poor conditions and aircraft standards.

I think you will find standards are much lower out there, may I suggest a float plane, you can have some real great fun.

Heh if you need a Co-pilot im your man, im willing to pay my way.

I don’t quite see how I am being rude, im just being told what I have been by certain Instructors, nor do I find that I have superior knowlege over those who know better than me, I don’t think anybody is in position to question some of the highly experinaced pilots in this forum. And to that I take my hat off to them, never have I once been rude or broken the rules, nor will I ever conduct ilegal operations in which I was clearly asking and not doing-so. If you had done your homework you would find that I have e-mail contacts with many of these pilots and that I am not frowning apon thier advice.

As a non-aviatior I dont know if to smile or dispair, for the reason that you seam to be questioning me when from your prevoius posts you seam to be more of a teaser than a contributer.

Now I am thanking you for your imput and well if I ever end up flying you as you stated, to MAKE SUCH A STUPID COMMENT such as I hope R.weaver doe’s not fly me I find rahter petty, simply for the reason that I would not be flying you unless I had passed the required checkrides by highly experinaced examiners.

The comment itslef reflects your lack of good will and community spirit with this forum, but I will thank you for your imput and I will thank you for your regards.

Closing the subject, I will not be getting any shocks for my current performance is good so im told by my Instructor and that I KNOW WHERE IM GOING.

I didnt get the information from an article I actually got it from a FAA CFI who told me the facts, you see the JAR requires you do you training on a complex aircaft, e.g:c177,182/arrow. (For CPL)

Under FAA regulations this is not a reqirement.

Hope it answers what you want to know

It must be you, if you read the artice correctly from which I posted you will find I stated that, just for the reason that I stated an aircraft like the 152 being in his category of specification, you will find I have answed his question to a more than satisfactory standard with some of my own imput off the matter included.

Air law is not tricky, you just have a lot to remember and passing at 75% is hard, starting your written work is the hardest and the size of the matter foes not help.

No R/T is required but I suggest you do, if you want to fly I would suggest the NPPL you can do it for about the same as the PPL(M)

R.weaver

Be prepared to be educated:

Most modern helicopters have one of three types of main rotor systems:

A semirigid rotor system has two main rotor blades. The blades flap and move up and down as a unit,like a teeter-totter, to compensate for dissymmentry of lift. They also feather, twist and twist at the hub,as the centre of mass moves toward and away from the rotors axis of rotation.

These are fairly cheap and simple to maintain, but thier flapping characteristics can lead to mast bumping (the mian rotor hub makes contact with the main rotor mast.) They ae also susceptible to low-G-conditions.

Helicopters like the (R22) have semirigid rotor systems.

Fully articulated: A fully articulated rotor system has three of more main rotor blades. The blades flap as described before independantly to compensate for dissymmentry of lift, as before they also feather and also independantly ajust thier angle of attack as they rotate, and lead and lag independantly to compensate for the coriolis force. (Ef28)

Rigid: A rigid rotor system has three or more main rotor blades, the blades flap and move up and down as described before. Unlike a fully articulated system, a rigid system is hingeless and independantly ajust there own angle of attack, they can lead and lag seperate. (md500)

Yes well you do have a very good point, I just don’t think it suits me for I have flown helis and seen a few accidents, not those that kill but I have seen a few skids hit the ground and the heli flip, funny twice now both in R22’s, one at a private site.

What we all need is a harrier or a tilt-rotor like bell are doing, for im sure you love it, and all-thougth today was winded off for me to do some solo flying, I did find the helicopters were active and having fun, I saw the police Eurocopter today do some autorotations, he is the biggest bloody show-off thier is, for we are good freinds and he is always offering me to come along with some rule bending, so what helicopters do you fly and are you R22 rated, for If I had to fly a helicopter it would be the AS350 or maybe the R44???

I can provide you with lot’s of information on rotor blades, what do you need to know? I might not fly them but I do know how they fly, so what is your question?

Look forward to your reply.

Regards

R.weaver

P.s: Whats the Rotorway executive like to fly, for its so cheap it’s providing competition for Robinson, an soon F.B.O’S are to use them. Very cheap and very roomy so I hear, must go for I have some Navagation work to do.
