dhavillandpilot,
Thanks, but don't see myself as edjamakated, Just a farm boy who grew up with a love of anything mechanical and a want to learn to fly.
Spent the rest of my working life sitting in tractors or trucks or in GA listening to the drone of the engines. Guess you can say I love the sound of a happy engine.
That has lead me to become hungry for the science behind it all and basically have just read and now google all I can and I try and make sense of it all. So what I say or advice I give may not always be scientifically correct but it seems to work for me. Most of my science is the science of common sense.
If I have one whinge, it is that it seems that the biggest percentage of newbies we now see seem to have lost this ability and need to be told over and over what to do. But then again that could just be me turning into a grumpy old man.
Well all my fledglings that were out today have come home no snags so I am off to enjoy Easter.
Happy Easter to all.
