Steering on the taxiway

Nor have I responded, just like I said I wouldn't.

start their own threads.

Yes, some lurkers may not like it, and personally, I don't care how good
the questions he may ask, the lurkers DO HAVE A KEYBOARD and can ask the
questions themselves.

I also re-iterate, I can't imagine a pilot not helping a fellow pilot,
armchair pilot or even a sim pilot, but this guy is beyond these categories
when he starts his combative answers without having any knowledge of the
real deal.

Is it practical/desirable to use it for steering?

Yes, it is.

Unfortunately it is very awkward to adjust the throttles separately in
a sim, so I've never tried this type of steering.


Hmmm. Let me guess ... you don't have a full throttle quadrant in addition
to your yoke and rudder pedals (hopefully with brakes).

Without all of that/those, I don't see how you hope to simulate any
particular type of aircraft.

use your brakes, use a little extra power and then "drag" the brakes to
keep
them warmed up, hot brakes work better


You're kidding, right? That'S a good way to start a nice fire.

Finally! A use for smell-o-vision!

it's MX... of course anything we tell him is "tongue in cheek"

Just a single throttle. The occasions where I might need separate
throttle controls are so rare that they don't justify the expense of a
full dual set of throttles. For things like single-engine failures, I
pause the sim to reset throttles or feather props or whatever.

I am having some difficulty understanding why some here find it
necessary to chastize you for being a "sim" pilot. I know some local
"sim" pilots who would love to do the real thing, but are unable for
various reasons.

Have you read any of the FADEC thread? The stuff he makes up is out of the
realm of reasonable. He continues to back it up, as being the truth.

He has made claim to designing systems like FADEC, but will not say what. He
does not understand the most basic of things that would be necessary for a
person to design anything like a FADEC..

He asks a question, then when given a good answer by a pilot, questions it, and
gives reasons why it is the wrong answer.

He does not want to fly a real plane. He finds them dangerous, and pilots on
the whole incompetent.

You can get questions from a different reasonable reader. Not this guy, if you
want this group to remain health. He is a troll, plain and simple. Go over to
the sim group, and ask about him. They ran him off, over there.

If you continue to respond to this guy, and can not see why that is a problem,
you are part of the problem.

And contrary to how many are being taught, you don't need the
brakes on the beginning of takeoff run to stay aligned with the center
stripe.


Pilots are taught to use the brakes on take-off? Isn't that unsafe?

Oy.

I don't get why there are as many posts from you complaining about Mx,
than there are from Mr. Mx himself.

Are you a sock puppet of his, or are you fixated?

Perhaps you should look up the definition of sock puppet. A sock puppet is a
post made by the same person under a different screen name, or by a supporter of
a person, making a positive confirmation of whatever the original poster says.

I am fixated on to clarify his posts, so he makes statements so silly, that the
people from this group that now support him, will see what a loon he is, and
will think twice before responding to him in the future.

And he does not own me. I have made it a campaign to challenge him whenever he
makes a statement that should not be allowed to pass as the truth.

Using a game, I don't see how he can hope to accurately simulate anything, other
than entertainment.

Great. If we could only get everyone to not respond, we would have it made. I
will only respond to harass.
