  1. Windows was of No use ! , without that little " Dos " program. DISK OPERATING SYSTEM. Invented by a couple of young students. It enabled the release of having two ' floppies ' doing the ' memory work . Simple " Basic " language. spacesailor
  2. I' m waiting for that day When, someone really needs a original " windows & Dos " floppy !. It comes with an Old desktop p c . spacesailor

  9. Not just ' go faster ' . But those extra ' gap filler's ' will make your fuel go the extra mile . So fairings and spats , will pay for themselves in the long run. 61 mpg about 98 klmtrs on 4 ( four ) litres on mogas spacesailor
  10. 2,5 mm ,on ALL radio receivers , as far as I have found . I changed my long straight cord , as with the headphones resting on my neck the plugs were dragging on the floor . Curly cord reaches my knees. I asked the forum , if it was wise, but no answer. spacesailor

  13. I changed my ' Altronics ' to a ' curly cord ' . The original straight cord had the outer plastic coming apart. I did ask on the forum, if it was any better to have the cord ' straight or curly ' . Also removed the 1/4" NATO plug for a 2.5 mm plug . spacesailor
  14. IF ! YOU chop your own props ! . You can customise them , to whatever suits your airframe , take-off, climb , cruise and economy. It appears a lot of smaller engines ' like ' a wooden propeller . Also your wallet really likes them as too . spacesailor

  17. Move the ' horizontal stabiliser ' to give a better result , on the ' elevator ' incidence. IF your design allows such adjustments. spacesailor
  18. Shouldn't the ' fuel burn ' be more important than just " piston " engine ! . I mean , a Cessna six cylinder has better fuel economy than that same ' airframe ' running a " turboprop " engine . ( Ltrs er hour. ) . spacesailor

  24. " US or British units " . I believe they Don't us the ENGLISH. " BA " , SYSTEM. " British Association of screw threads ". AND England uses the French metric system . It was France that changed , From the Right hand drive . spacesailor
  25. METRIC. A French system. To rule the world . Removed the " Greenwich " meridian , the new meridian is Paris France. Removed the ' standard ' calender. The new " Republican calander 1793 " which stopped the Catholics finding their Sundays for " mass ". 10 hours a day , 100 minutes per hour 100 seconds per minute. Only three countries are imperial! . United States . Liberia & Burma. renamed Myanmar. SO Why does the USA call ' their System ' Imperial? . spacesailor
