Brercrow's thinking is just hopelessly flawed. He's like a flat earth believer. He's a tragic figure.
You think turn and turd are synonymous. What does that say about your flying? |

Wizofoz thinks this because Newton proved it.
Brercrow says this is not so, yet simultaneously says he understands Newton. Explain to Brercrow his mistakes. |

It is not practical meteorology Thank you for admitting the fact that in one IRF the air is still (actually, in an INFINATE number, but I digress), So, that is established physics. Can you dynamically soar instill air? |

If you know this, how come you can't figure out it invalidates your claim? |

You can't do that. |

Wizofoz thinks that wind is the same as no wind because all inertial frames of reference (IFR) are equally valid and he can measure a velocity relative to any IFR

This *is* physics, the idea that it has anything more than a passing connection to meteorology is just absurd. If we were discussing a boat in the river would you insist it was hydrology, not physics? |

You use airspeeds and groundspeed in the same diagram-that is, vectors from different IRFs. The velocity of an aircraft doesn't "consist of" airspeed components and groundspeed components, it's velocity can be expressed as one or the other (or, indeed, be expressed reference any OTHER IRF). You try and take velocity from one frame and claim it effects the aircraft in another.
You can't do that. Jet Fan called it when he said:

I never expected the guy to turn up. I just imagined we'd all agree the theory was rubbish. I obviously never expected others to rally to his cause.
His not exactly 100% behind his own theory either. There's zero verifiable information about Colin Taylor on his website, no picture, no nothing. He may not even exist and this could all be a massive troll. Maybe he saw something nasty in the woodshed, involving a naked man wearing a big watch who had a small.... |

It would only work if you could mix velocities and speeds in the same calculation, i.e. ignore the direction component of some terms but not of others. You can't do that in any known universe. |

Seriously? Whats wrong with the diagram? In diagram B) you say VG = W +/- VA : Therefore difference = 2VA. In A you use the aircraft’s velocity as a reference, in B you use the Wind vector as a reference. In the link you posted #201 The Downwind Turn, “Ft” is Zero. It does not exist. There is no FWD / AFT acceleration on the aircraft. There is only a centripetal acceleration towards the centre of the turn in the moving air mass (i.e. relative to the aircraft wing). The ground velocity changes by the vector addition of wind + aircraft's instantaneous heading and airspeed. If you don't understand the difference then I can't help you. |
No fair!!!!
Pprune towers has taken our chew-toy away! Who are we going to point at and laugh now?? |
