Yes, kind of. It's such a fast, heavy airplane that we use yarn rather than
string. ;-)

You're right Frijoles, in the Bone the correct answer for "What airspeed

do
you fly on final" is "I don't know/care. I'm flying 7 AoA as required

by
the Dash One".


Is the AOA indicator a piece of string like Wilbur and Orville had?

There is however, a chart of airspeed and gross weights that
every pilot has and, IAW the Landing Checklist, every final must have

an
airspeed computed.


That's in case the AOA indicator goes T.U. :-)
