I have been having problems with my elevontic IFR pitch procedures?

I know that this is the site to come to for help. Can anyone aid me in my quest to reformat my sesquiplane rudevators?

[Peterrr20]

What are you on about Helices? Do you know anything about aviation, or flight simming?

[Maxell]

I think he is bangin' his keyboard with a hammer, and hence, this message.

Seriously if you search thos phrases using google you will find that some of them are real. But not what he wanted to say :lol:

[Peterrr20]

Interesting Helices. You're trying to sound very smart, aren't you? Just use normal language please, that normal people can understand. Even Maxell who is a pilot found it slightly difficult to figure out what you are saying. Maybe you should take heed from him.

[Maxell]

PLease do noy use me for comparison as I do not speak english all the time. The comparison would not be valid. Please look at the thread in FS2004 section, it is called Airplane Behaves insane....

Look at the comments written by Helices

Dont understand the last two words but, about the ILS thing you fly torwards the marks ie:

________
-|==== -
-| /\
-| <lines
________
You would fly left twards the line and up twards the = sign

Also try the ILS Turtorial avaliable on this site

Edit: know what the words are know and think that you guys should leave him alone about his personiations

[Helices]

Thanks paulvil. It would have been hard to explian my complex predicament without using such jargon. I just wish people who didn't understand the terms wouldn't keep assuming that I just invented them.

My technician is taking a look this evening. She should be in working order within a week if we are lucky- the prop has completely sheared. It was a miracle that I was able to get her down in one piece. I am lucky to be alive- so long as you don't think that I'm just being melodramatic!

Basically the In-Flight redirection system failed in mid landing, so I was forced to take manual control of the elevators. That was why I mentioned the elevontic procedures- I have flicked through the thousand page manual, but it is filled with even more jargon than my posts!

I had to use those words because in truth I only just understand *beep* this jargon!

[Maxell]

Which aircraft were you flying? Day night, size of the airport and such?

[Helices]

It was a rented Piper PA-28 (Cherokee Series). She has a 110kW engine, single prop and prop-fan and I fly every couple of months at EGTG, in England. I am a member of the Filton Aero Club, affilated to BAWA. The airport itself is very small indeed. It has a 2450m runway, fully lit with ILS so it is not bad for its size. I love the aerodrome (you can't really call it an airport!) and wouldn't change for anything.

I almost always fly during the day as there are routine training runs from 7.00 until about midnight. As I say, I can fly unassisted now, but since last week I feel a bit off flying- if you know what I mean.

P.S I am sorry about all of that rubbish I posted elsewhere. I was a bit stupid and tried to sound clever by posting loads of jargon. I know now that I cannot fool people like yourself- I am not at that stage yet!

lol, as you internet fans say! :lol:

[Maxell]

2500 meters is about 7000 feet I think. That is not a small runway (I do not know about the rest of the field). The Piper huh, is it the famous Piper Six? To rent the "P6" at my home airport you have to hold a Commercial IFR licence (did I translate this well :oops: ).

Helices,
Ok...I find your posts funny as he!!. However, as a real pilot, which you are NOT, and the holder of my ATP rating, and having learned and instructed in the PA-28 Piper Warrior, Cherokee, etc.., I flew in the US Coast Guard as well as teaching at several airports. I simply gotta say. You are an absolute mor!!!

By the way, what the bloody he!! is a 110kW engine??????
And where did you ever learn distances????

You are NOT typing in real terms. You are making crap up . No one here believes you. Please visit another forum and give them your load of crap. Too many of us here ARE real pilots and we can all say, you are NOT. If these terms are real, then you show them to me. Now. Cause I know you can't. They simply do NOT exist in any aviation anything. I have close to 2100 hours and have NEVER heard any of the crap that you are spewing forth on this site. Please stop.

It was funny for a bit. But, I have gotten over laughing. Just stop. You can't prove anything you say is real. You know you can't. Do NOT insult the people on this forum that know so much more than you know. I have studied aviation history since I was like 5 years old since I grew up in airplanes with my dad. I have almost every aviation book ever written and have written several articles on aviation to boot.

So this will be your only warning. STOP!

[Maxell]

Greg, you did not clean your stars. Why? :lol:

Also a 110 kW engine is actually a 160Hp engine, but if you read from and older encyclopedia, you make a fool of yourself and write the power in kWatts.

I also think Helices has been affected by the guido virus...he is not only stupid enough to try to fool us, but also persistant to continue with that crap...

The only reason I asked him about the airplne he flew is because I knew he will slip on that one...in his first post he wrote he was flying a turboprop, in the second he said he is flying a PA-28, which is powered by the Textron Lycoming O-360-A4M PISTON engines. And then he said that a ~8000 feet runway is a small one. Helices, do you know you can land a MD-80 on that runway withought no problems? :twisted:

I do not understand that need to make a fool of himself.

*Maxell*

[SpectroPro]

I have no clue what you are talking about on blue dust on stars... I think you have been guido'd. ;) I guess you have not been paying attention... I had myself removed from modship on most of the forum. I want to be able to chat like the rest of you. I am sick of 'you can't cay that, you are a moderator'. Now I can say what I want. 8)

I thought he meant killo watts, but I figured no one could be that freaking stupid. Guess I was wrong.

[Maxell]

I know you wanted to be a normal guy like the rest of us. I was only joking, guess it isn't as funny as I thought is would be. Never mind :roll:


About the engine power...the Piper PA-28 Cherokee, it it' s manual says that the power is 150-160 hp, and it says the same in all of the documentation, emerg. proc, reference, and such. But he wrote the power in kilowatts, why, because that is what can be found on sites like airliners.net or jetphotos.com

All data there seems to be written in those units, and the hp in brackets "()" so he assumed that it is better to write the power in kWatts.


Maybe we oughta leave him alone for a while, see if the will continue making a fool of himself....

[Helices]

Sorry. I don't understand why you don't believe me. I also fly a Cessna 172 sp. I find that it's two-bladed McCauley propellor and lycoming engine are too weak for my taste. I prefer the Cesna 182 skylane. It is far more powerful, but has a slower response. It was sacrifice that I was willing to make.

I really suggest that you stop doubting my authority as I have a Multi-engine aircraft certificate and to prove it I can tell you the aircraft I tested in: It was a Piper Seminole. I passed with flying colours.

What grade do you have, and why do you still doubt me? The Piper Cherokee aircraft were powered by either 110kW (equating 150hp) or 120kW (equating 160hp) engines. I fly a PA-28-161 Piper, which has a top airspeed of about 130kt, and a service ceiling of 13,240ft.
