Is it possible to switch from VFR to IFR and back?

Why you give this guy the time of day is beyond me. You deal with aviation day in and day out, pushing tin, knowing what airspeeds they can do, and performance factors and this guy is going to question your experience disrespectfully???? It's fun to pick on idiots. This guy could be FAA management, they're that dumb too. Snicker Now there's a scary thought. -- Mortimer Schnerd, RN mschnerdatcarolina.rr.com |

So this is a standard answer when you are proven wrong? No, it's just a standard question that I ask of people who have made assertions concerning 737s (or similar aircraft). You have zero hours in anything and you are concerned about the number of hours somebody has in an airliner? You get dumber by the day. You haven't answered my question. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

I doubt that. Computer skills are much in demand throughout the world. If you truly possessed them you would not be living in poverty. Here's an interesting test: List the things that you are doing in this discussion that I am not. The results might be instructive. Among other things, I am relating experiences gained from flying real airplanes (which is the matter at hand on both of these newsgroups). I have also offered to take you flying so that you can get some firsthand experience of your own, an offer you claim not to be able to avail yourself of for want of $650. Was that as instructive as you thought it would be? Not a real one. Not with the autopilot off. How many hours do you have in 737s? In real ones? At least as many as you do. In (badly) simulated no doubt I have far fewer. But I don't know, I've never flown a glider. But you know what 737s do, especially with the autopilot off. Yes. I didn't know that you worked for the airlines. I don't. Your inability to think of any other possible way I might have come by this information shows an appalling lack of imagination. I am beginning to see why you might confuse simulation with reality. rg |

Refreshing my memory, one of the guys on the Aeronca mail list describes a flight from Urbana, Ohio where the pilotless craft reached 13,000' and 100 miles from departure, being chased by the Highway Patrol in one of their JetRanger helicopters. Fuel exhaustion eventually brought it down. Are these verifiable stories, or merely urban legends? While I don't see anything technically impossible about it, it seems a bit improbable. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

Here's an example of a pilotless airplane that got away after a hand propping. It didn't fly straight, and didn't land by itself (never got the chance :-) http://www.navy.gov.au/units/805sqn/..._Shootdown.pdf |

Mxsmanic,
I thought Nice try. Your simulation of thought is deficient. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

It does not appear in the NTSB accident database, because no pilot was aboard, and that's NTSB Regs they must follow. Why are you so sure you have all the answers and others are full of it? F-- |

Why are you so sure you have all the answers and others are full of it? I was asking a question, not giving an answer.
