This round apparently goes to Zoom.

Whether through guile, bluster, bluff ...or genuine journalistic
stick-to-itiveness, Zoom was the we were not. He deserves an "atta boy."

A question:
What are his ANN numbers?

Also:
What do those numbers mean?

He may have been there but something he wrote in his article about the flight
might have given it away. He said some people paid to observe the flight .I bet
he bought his way on because if he was part of the crew I'm sure he would have
worn a neat jump suit like the real crew members. I noticed that none of the
photos in flight were credited to him so I doubt he was the official
photographer.

I bet it was guile,bluster, bluff and money for a ticket that got zoom there :-)
But he'll never get an atta boy from me ...He's still a phoney .

Another thing he said was he'll be test flying a rocket plane in the near future
....Wanna bet?? LOL!!!

I wonder if it's too late to have him test a V1.

I think watching him loop, roll, and spin a Natter would be more
interesting...

THAT would be a Weapon of Mass Deception.

Good one John.I'd love to read his "test pilot" reports.

" The Natter was a little cramped for yours truly but once airborne I really
rung it out and I didn't notice that my rather large empennage was hitting the
cabin sides. But that helped with high G maneuvers. I started with some basic
loops ,rolls and inverted flat spins and found the Natter to be extremely
sensitive but delightfully obedient having a close coupled phugoid with yaw
separation in roll harmonizing the damping of the linear but slightly increasing
stick pressures. At about positive 10 g's while supersonic it exhibited a slight
mach tuck which went away at 10.5 g's I didn't explore negative g past 9 because
I had a large breakfast and was mildly to slightly uncomfortable.

It was really fun to fly especially when I fired ALL those rockets YIPES what a
BLAST!! Landing was a slight challenge with a 40 knot 89 degree X wind but I
greased it on thanks to the great designers of this craft.

All in all I found this plane to be blast to fly and and I think eventually
I'll own one to add to my WW II collection.

Next week I'll be test flying the Baka Bomb a delightful little rocket glider
(similiar to the Rockt Racer I'll be flying in the near future ) and the V-1
series Pulse jet plane .I'm the only fly writer to get to fly these planes it
will be an ANNE exclusive. " :-)

Gosh "Chuck", that pegged the Zoom meter with a solid 10. Is it possible
that "Chuck" is actually just a Zoom sock puppet? Does anyone have a photo
of "Chuck" and Zoom together at the same time? None of this Photoshop stuff
but an unaltered photo? Now, I know what you're thinking: "but Zoom is
always attacking "Chuck". What about that." That could be just an aspect of
Campbell's self hatred! Or is Zoom one of "Chuck's" personalities?

I'm confused, Jim Campbell is a very fat man, and normal people in good
shape begin to experience blackouts at 6-7 g's. How might a flabby pile like
Zoom expect to calmly evaluate flight characteristics at 10.5 G's?? I really
couldn't care less if he rode with Hawking, you pay- you ride, that easy,
but who would believe a man that out of shape could fly the way he claims??

Notice the way he posts photos of the flight, and of Hawking in a
horizontal position in zero gravity, and the notice under the picture
would lead you to believe that he is posting a copyright of the photo.
See what it actually says, he is not copyrighting the photo, it says,
"Portions Copyright © 1999-2007 by Aero-News Network, Inc. All rights
reserved." Whatever "Portions" means, escapes me.

The same photo appears in the gozerog.com website and credit is shown as
zero gravity.

The other day I thought I found some photos that were credited to the
Orlando Sentinal or something like that and they were surprisingly
similar, I dare not say identical, to photos on the ANN website.

Sure does make a person wonder??
