having a "blonde moment" when it comes to gyro procession and props by
xerj
Pitching a clockwise spinning (seen from the cockpit) prop forward will
result in a yaw to the left, pitching it up will result in a right yaw.
Correct so far?
However, why does a yaw to the right cause a pitch up, and a yaw to the left
cause a pitch down? I thought it would be the other way,...

can't quite grasp the "power available" curve by
xerj
I understand the "power required" curve as plotted against velocity, but the
concept of "power available" plotted against velocity is escaping me.
How is this curve derived? And why is it "curved"?
Thanks in advance.

practical best range application? by
xerj
I understand the theory vis a vis lowest L/D TAS and the power
available/power required chart, but let's say you're in flight in a normally

unservicable for some reason or other and you need to stretch the fuel you
have the...

Hurricane hunters? by
xerj
The site is down at the moment, but if I'm understanding it correctly, do
these guys actually penetrate hurricanes in P3s and Gulfstreams?
Do they go IMC flying into hurricane cloud???
If so, how the hell are they not constantly stalling as they are buffetted
by the turbulence? I'm pretty sure...

Propeller thrust question by
xerj
Thrust from a propeller drops as speed increases to a theoretical zero. When
this happens, what is providing the thrust to overcome drag? The forward
momentum of the aircraft?
If so, is it a case of the speed very slightly and imperceptibly dipping
below the zero thrust speed, getting a little...

tell me the safest...

Full procedure versu vectors by
Wyatt Emmerich[_2_]
With my 530 upgraded to WAAS, I think it's easier to fly full procedure GPS
approaches rather than take vectors. Does it complicate life for controllers
when you request the full procedure? I get the feeling that they would
rather vector me on the ILS than have me shoot a GPS full approach.
