Yes, you are absolutely correct here, and I cannot deny
the truth. It's true...you have that feeling.
Now, let's talk about aviation, shall we?

tools all pilots carry in their "bag of tricks" is interpolation.
You must know interpolation like the back of your hand.
Right?

at different elevatons. Basically, I just fly by the seat of my
pants and hope nobody gets killed".
