    Does a Fly's Weight Affect a Light Aircraft?

    :cry: yea you're all right, I have no place to be judging a high roller like ZapperZ. Sorry dude! (T'was all in good humor tho):tongue2: Anyways... Something I was thinkin about yesterday...science folk with the ability to harness Nuclear Power used that as a route to the Nuke (I've no idea...

    Does a Fly's Weight Affect a Light Aircraft?

    Oh ok...:yuck:... As long as we are both on the same page that this is a TRIVIAL question, I'm not out to make air travel safer or create the next type of fuel... Do you feel that you are doing a public service by answering an immensely banal question with the utmost authority and...

    Does a Fly's Weight Affect a Light Aircraft?

    Unless you're stumped... :rofl: It was a joke dude! Are you going to stop me posting on the forum for having a sense of humor? Anyway back to the question... In light of your answer some aspects need to be cleared up... Where did you get the ridiculous notion of a bird being suspended when we...

    :rofl: It's a stupid question that we made up at work to pass time! You really shouldn't be gettin so worked up over something so trivial, it's bad for your heart :uhh:

    Does a Fly's Weight Affect a Light Aircraft?

    Yeeeeea cos he said it was flying... and I am saying if it were dead...:uhh: OK, here's the evolved form of the question... A man flies a small light aircraft straight and level. Inside the cockpit is a dead fly being suspend in midair by the updraft from the aircrafts AC. Does the fly’s...

    Does a Fly's Weight Affect a Light Aircraft?

    Fair enough but this question *If the fly was dead and being suspended in midair by the updraft from the air conditioning vent would it add to the weight then?* was mine :D Unless your stumped...:biggrin:

    Does a Fly's Weight Affect a Light Aircraft?

    *making you into his patsy*:rofl: But I like frilly things :cry: He can't be flucked to register so I'm just copy'n'pastin his replies from our e-mails at work... I think it would still add to the weight of the plane becasue it's still flying... Now if the fly was dead and being suspended...

    Gravity and centrifugal forces

    If you jumped on an orbital/halo.. Would you carry on flying through the air indefinately or does the centrifugal force push you towards the ground even though you are not in any physical contact with the centrifugalised object?? On a planet we're attracted back towards the ground by gravity...

    Does a Fly's Weight Affect a Light Aircraft?

    My friend alex refutes this and asks: But what if the fly is flying directly above the air conditioning vent?

    Does a Fly's Weight Affect a Light Aircraft?

    A man flies a small light aircraft straight and level. Inside the cockpit is a fly flying. Does the fly’s weight contribute to the aircraft’s weight at all?

    Does Newton's Third Law Explain the Different Fall Rates of Water and Glass?

    Err if erm the... No, lol I have no idea! Basicaly my argument is that the water would lift from the bottom of the glass and therefore fall slower and hit the ground after the glass... My mate(Alex) thinks that the air resistance would cause the glass to fall slower which would hold the water...

    Does Newton's Third Law Explain the Different Fall Rates of Water and Glass?

    Hello! We often have lots of free time on our hands at work when we should be er... working, anyway we use this time to debate questions that none of us are qualified to answer in a 'I'm 110% right B***H' way. So I decided to come here and post a couple of the ones we have been arguing in the...
