Post Flying and Time:

The people of Korea have a romantic and philosophical legend that measures deep time. We from the west think of deep time as many billions of years. The legend talks of a mountain of solid granite one mile high and the time period is that which will allow the mountain to be worn away by the wings of angels as they fly down to earth. I suspect this is meant to represent forever.

“ This is not flying related “ says Mr. Moderator as he reaches for another lock. But he is wrong, it is flying related.

I hope this 'mountain' appears on all relevant sectionals, and is NOTAMed...

...otherwise, angels, may well be a relevant topic.

OK, so it's flying related.

So it should be in the Non Air Transport Issues Forum, PPRuNe;s Forum for "News and issues not relating to air transport but still involving aviation.
