Spinner strobing as a "Bird Strike Countermeasure"
"Peter Clark" wrote in message ... On Tue, 4 Dec 2007 12:29:29 -0600, "Maxwell" If it hasn't been on a tv or computer screen, you have so little experience YOU don't realize it exists. Wait, I did a KF a while back - did I read this right that now it is trying to tell people they don't really know what they see? Yep, that's just about the size of it. |

"Mxsmanic" wrote in message ... Paul Tomblin writes: It tells me that the people who wrote the Wikipedia article are smarter than you or me. Because they agree with what you wish to believe? I've written a lot of Wikipedia articles myself. Do you believe what I've written because I put it in Wikipedia? Wikipedia quotes multiple scientific papers. So far all you've quoted is yourself. Wikipedia usually quotes, at best, a number of sources, which may or may not be reliable, be they scientific papers or not. But you are still a much more unreliable source than Wiki. |

Well, I must admit I don't have much experience with large radial engines. Moreover, I accept the argument that some AC ramp lighting at night can produce stroboscopic effects with props - I have not seen it myself, even though I frequently fly at night, but I do accept the principle - if you get your plane in the right position with respect to line-frequency, AC lighting at night you should see stroboscopic effects, which will include "backwards turning" illusdion, depending on your prop speed. So I stand corrected on this. I've seen it plenty of times. Not caused by lighting, but you can see the strobing effect in this video I shot, caused by the frame rate of the video camera (note, the strobing is at 50Hz since the source video is PAL): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nf5unfWZLDA -- From the sunny Isle of Man. Yes, the Reply-To email address is valid. |

: Maxwell writes: This phenomenon is apparent to the naked eye under continuous lighting conditions. No, it is not. You might need to wait for a three or four blade prop, but it DOES happen in real life. No, it does not. Continual assertions to the contrary will not change this. Yes, they will Bertie |
