I like people with a sense of humor though it does get frustrating trying to explain that headwinds or tailwinds have nothing to do with airspeed. KC where are you in Virginia.
Congompasse,
I live in Northern Virginia, Fairfax County (thinks it's the Capital, not Richmond).
If you stop by, please don't bring any fishbowls with you I have an aggressive parakeet :mrgreen:
Btw, nice link to an in-depth discussion.
Anyway, to finish this topic off, yes I do use the TAS speedbar but only for bombing runs. Yes, I can use the bombardier's instruments but I'm too busy with other stuff like dodging flak, bandits, while setting up my Norden etc..
Take care
[and yes, this is a demo picture only - I know I'm going pretty slow]
KC,
Northern Virginia also but in Arlington County.
