Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired Still trying to prove intelligence? Notice the word "barograph" in the article? chuckle Get over it. Yawn, is there an unbiased party who who verified calibration of said barograph, sealed said barograph, placed said barograph in the aircraft and verified that said barograph remained sealed with its original seal and verified the maximum altitude upon completion of the attempt? If so, who was this disinterested party and what organization, if any, does he represent? Notary public? OK, what is his seal number and state? My point is he made a claim and has yet to prove it. If he wants to be taken seriously on this point he should have submitted it to a controlling authority. It really isn't that difficult to understand. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. It's just that simple. You claim to have been a Marine, what would have happened to you if you wore an unauthorized award, decoration or other distinctive insignia on your uniform? It's all about integrity. I have seen documentation of cambell's impersonation of a doctor, parachute instructor etc. That is sufficient for me to doubt his claiming this record.

Why bother...no one wants to read his lies, let alone yours. Especially when all you yapping mutts say he should have registered the record with FAI, when in fact FAI did not begin accepting records in the microlight category until 1984. Dear Sir, A quick search in our database shows that the first microlight record approved was a 'distance in a straight line' flight made by Jonathan DAVIES (UK) on 3rd March 1984. Details are available at http://records.fai.org/microlight/hi...d1=RAL1&id2=84 I hope this information helps. Way to go, nimrod. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

No Juan, we're merely saying that if he truly wanted to set a record, why not approach the NAA or the FAI, create the new category, then set the record? Otherwise, he's just jerking off, and it's not a record he remains quiet about, a personal best kind of thing that one guy knows he's done something no one else so far has been capable of, and he warms himself in private glow from the fires of that fact; Jimbo's trying to claim credit for something that was never verified nor was any real attempt made to verify it, because even as Jimbo might tell you, were he a Real Journalist, the Press can be called in to verify such attempts...but the FAI is still the sanctioning authority in the end. But at least you have the Press behind you! Now how dumb was that for the Master Journalist James R. Campbell NOT to have the Press on standby for a record attempt, even if the FAI had no interest in the event? On the yapping Mutt issue, you should stop plagiarizing right now. Not befitting a Journalist, Juan. Of course, we're still waiting to see real Journalism out of Aero-News.Net, instead of that paid for advertising you guys call Journalism. And your plagiarizms. Also, double-edged sword. For me to have Aviation Experience, I must show you documented information? Is that how it works? I want all of ANN to provide me with their documented Aviation Experience and I'll gladly do the same for them. The demand on me was made recently, so I'll need some time. The demand on you boyz and girlz (especially your boss) was made decades ago...why haven't you produced your records? The logbooks, the Certificates, the Medicals, the Airmen's Certificate in particular? All of ANN...not just you, not just Jimbo, but all of ANN. Kind of up's the ante, dont'cha think!? G |

Especially when all you yapping mutts say he should have registered the record with FAI, when in fact FAI did not begin accepting records in the microlight category until 1984. Juan, you do realized, don't you, that before there was an "ultralight" category of less than 300kg, there was, and still is, a less than 500kg category. If someone wanted to set a record in an aircraft, of any weight, there is now, and has been, a category for it. If the attempt had been made in 1981, he would have had to compete with aircraft heavier than 300kg, maybe even a prop driven BD5. The FAI certainly DID accept records from lightweight aircraft prior to 1984. When you attempt a record in a weight class, if your performance is good enough, you may saction and claim records for weight classes above yours. For instance, I hold a World Class record in Airplanes, propellor driven, 1000kg to 1500kg, or "C1-c". I also hold the "C1, group 1" record for propellor driven aircraft regardless of weight. Now Clay Lacy could probably dig out his DC6 or P51, and take the record away, but in 27 years no one has done it. Zoom, could have claimed his record in the same way. In fact, since it is an un-official, un-recorded, record, how do you, or anyone else, know that someone else hasn't done the same thing, better? Al, sonny, Marco knows it had not flown when the record application was submitted. Sonny? Jeez Louise, how old a do you think you are? Al G |

![]() snipped A google search "FAI Campbell" comes up with a Sue Campbell, but I didn't see a James. What am I missing? It's not yet in his bio...give it a week for the Rocket Scientists at the RRL to consider...but Campbell also lays claim to being the subject of the Johnny Cash song, "A Boy Named Sue..." I wasn't sure if that meant he was prissy, litagious, or both... |

....from the november 2004 nat geo archives:
By Shelley Sperry Jim Campbell waited a little longer than usual this year to predict who would win the U.S. presidential election. With the Republican Party convention held just before Labor Day, the University at Buffalo, SUNY political scientist tweaked his model a bit to account for George W. Bush receiving a post-convention bounce in the Labor Day Gallup Poll, Campbell's most important factor in predicting the November vote. In the end, he created post-convention and pre-convention models, and both say that Bush will win. Campbell does not take into account the presidential debates. Using pre-convention polling numbers, Campbell says Bush wins 52.8 percent of the popular vote for the Republican and Democratic parties. Post-convention numbers predict he wins 53.8 percent. But what about the all-important electoral college vote? "If my forecast is close, within two points," Campbell declares, "Bush will clearly win the electoral vote as well." Campbell created his current forecasting model in 1990 using two kinds of predictors: public opinion and economic growth. "The Labor Day Gallup Poll of likely voters accounts for about two-thirds of the model," he explains. That poll showed Bush ahead of Democrat John Kerry by 7 percentage points. But Campbell believes we have to read polls along with other factors to put them in context. "Historically, there is a relationship between the economy and people's voting patterns." So the second factor in the model is the gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate in the second quarter of the election year. This year's rate was 3.3 percent, and, according to Campbell, anything roughly over 3 percent favors the incumbent. In early September, Campbell and colleagues who specialize in analyzing elections and public opinion took part in a lively roundtable in Chicago, where they discussed their 2004 election predictions. Of seven diverse models, six forecasted Bush would win in November-and the seventh saw another election "too close to call." Although Democrats may see these as gloomy projections, they can take heart from a similar group of prognosticators who picked Al Gore as the winner of the 2000 election. That year Campbell came closest to predicting the popular vote outcome, saying Gore would win 52.8 percent. Gore did win the popular vote, with 50.3 percent, but lost the electoral college contest and the presidency. None of the pundits predicted the election would be a virtual tie, ultimately settled by the Supreme Court. For more information about elections, polls, and predictions, Campbell recommends the sources listed below. Related Links Update for The American Campaign wings.buffalo.edu/polsci/faculty_and_research/campbell/campbell.htm James E. Campbell provides an update to his book, The American Campaign, which extends through the 2000 presidential election. ....now YOU know, and I know that James E. Campbell is not PsychoBoy, despite Ms. Sperry's unfortunate truncation of his first name. BUT, we all know that reality and Captain Zoom are complete strangers, so there is little doubt that he would, somehow, some way, try to make the best of this mention in geo. al |
