On May 23, 2:32*pm, Le Chaud Lapin wrote:
snip An electrical engineer will, I think, have an easier time remembering basic radio frequencies by virtue of the fact that s/he knows what a frequency really is. Inn ground school, I tested hypothesis *by asking the class (and the instructor), if the frequency was in megahertz or kilohertz. *There was silence, as no one knew. This difference might seem inconsequential and irrelevant until a pilot is asked to recite all the standard frequencies. The EE, I think, might have an easier time. The reason is context. When someone utters an RNAV frequency as a number, the EE might think of many things, but often there is a visualization. Maybe he thinks about the humps of sine waves. Maybe he thinks about where it lies in spectrum, a few MHz beyond the FCC limit on FM in the USA. Whatever he thinks, he will have something to think about. *To some others, the number is just a number, surround by a black void that provides no crutch for recollection. Reciting frequencies? I dont know of any pilots who even try to remember frequencies, other than 121.5 , you get your frequencies off charts or out of ERSA and write them on your flight plan if needed. Do you really visualise sine waves when you hear a radio frequency? and think about them humping? Thats kind of kinky Le Chaud, guess I just lack imagination. But seriously this is rec.aviation.piloting Le Chaud, so why dont you tell us about your flying training progress?. I would love to hear about it, I assume from your name you are doing it in France? It would be interesting to hear about how it differs from training elsewhere. Its great that you know lots about physics, I bet you would be able to tell a baseball player exactly why a ball can curve in the air? but I suspect if you went over to rec.baseball they prolly wouldnt be all that interested. but I reckon they would be on sci.physics. |

Interesting. *As a PhD in chemistry myself I would estimate the knowledge gap with someone with no special knowledge of chemistry to be about 1000 *feet. *As a pilot , PPL only, *I estimate the knowledge gap between me and an average non pilot to be about 5000 feet. *Now , I am not an ATP but I do know a couple, and one of them even talks to me, as long there are no other ATPs around, *and I estimate a gap of at least 35000 feet between them and me. *That would put the gap between an ATP and an average non pilot at 40000 feet, so looks like you are wrong again Maxie. Do you really think Jo average knows some chemistry? Try asking a few people what dihydrogenoxide or calcium carbonate is... Cheers |

How would you know dumb ass, you're neither. Lost your riddlin perskerpshun? Bertie Going to front me some, Snortie the nosehit. Where does one get riddlin?
