At the risk of hijacking this thread (take me to "Fly like an Airliner") I wonder if Static Discharge may benefit from a light aircraft where he cant see the runway ahead of him on approach. After all, he can then concentrate on his 3 degree approach on instruments.............

oooooooo wash my mouth out.............

It does seem odd really...... makes you wonder why there weren't more pusher prop designs in the early days. Orv & Wil got it right didnt they ("keep pedalling Wilbur, just ring that bell when your ready to land and I'll light the PAPIs up.........")
