I think someone here on this list has actually done that but I can't remember who. I've been thinking about doing the same thing when I get to the point of building my fuselage (which at the rate I'm going is YEARS down the road). -------- Billy McCaskill Urbana, IL tail section almost done, starting on ribs soon Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=327812#327812 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:30:05 PM PST US Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: How about this idea?

From: "Mild Bill" OK. Thanks. Sometimes it's hard to tell. At a forum on ornithopters I attended at Oskhosh some years ago, the presenter extolled the astounding performance of living birds, claiming at one point that some birds could maintain level flight indefinitely, in perfectly still air, without flapping their wings. I approached him after the forum and asked him how these birds could attain an infinite glide ratio, seemingly against the laws of aerodynamics. He responded, "Feathers." When I asked how feathers could do this, he clarified with great exuberance but also in perfect seriousness, "Negative drag!" I smiled courteously and walked off. -------- Bill Frank Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=327833#327833 ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 04:27:49 PM PST US Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: How about this idea? From: "Mild Bill" By the way, the idea in the OP would work. Really it would. Just use titanium instead of steel, by virtue of which you obtain "Negative Weight." 8) -------- Bill Frank Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=327834#327834 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message pietenpol-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Pietenpol-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/pietenpol-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/pietenpol-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
