The following thread on the Van's Air Force web site was of general
enough interest that I thought it worthwhile to bring it to the

Would be quite useful if it really worked. Of course there would
still be strikes with inattentive and near-sighted birds. ;-)

Entertaining thread this turned into. Anyway, here's a nice illusion.

Concentrate on the + in the middle.
An illusory green dot soon appears.
Moments later, pink dots seem to disappear.


Hey, I was about to post that.



I'll repost this one here - so it's easier to find?

No, but your memory is imperfect. You've never seen that in real life,
only
on TV and in films, or under stroboscopic lighting.

No it's because YOU have never seen anything in REAL LIFE retard.

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?

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.

You're out on a limb there. There has been A LOT of testing on birds' vision,
and they don't necessarily ask your opinion. . .

Which tests have been done?

Well, I think he made a pretty good "guess" - the GE90-115B tha powers the
777 turns (front fan) at 2550RPM, or 42.5 RPS. He probably didn't ahve to
guess much, as these facts are easily and irrefutably verified.

I obtained the facts from the engine specifications, so no guessing was
required.

I'm not looking for friends. I'm only here to discuss aviation.
