The Angle of Attack is defined as the angle between relative wind and chord of an airfoil. So if your engine has enough juice to climb at 45° (and many aerobatic aircrafts do), your relative wind is coming at 45° from ground, but almost at

Oh well, I did not know that. Do you have any citation that explains this further?

Probably not completely true. An airfoil stalls when the critical angle of attack is exceeded. For most airfoils, this sits at around 17°. For all commercial aircrafts (I think 727 onwards) there is a mechanism called stick pusher that will

You are right. Airframes are designed to be nose heavy. The wings tends to fly up, whereas the elevators tend to fly down. In a dead stick condition, the airplane is designed to fly with a pitch down attitude so you don't lose airspeed

Still does not explain the relationship between forward shifting CG and abrupt thrust.

>The Max 8 is outfitted with bigger, more fuel-efficient engines than earlier 737s, and the weight and positioning of those engines shifted the plane's center of gravity forward, increased the potential for the nose to pitch up afte

No it's not. The airplane just has to do wind correction by either crabbing into or away from the wind depending on the wind direction.

Yes, most of the time. There is actually Winds aloft data that is made available to pilots to select routes. And in lots of cases IFR routes are designed keeping these speeds in mind.

No you are right. In case of tailwind, it is KIAS + WS whereas headwind is KIAS - WS KIAS: Knots Indicated Airspeed (i.e. the speed at which air is hitting the pitot tube) WS: Wind speed

Also, if you use something like plastiq.com, you can use them to pay your rent and other places that typically do not accept credit cards. They do have a charge for their services, but frequently runs 0% charge sales. Disclaimer: I have bee

Mind sharing the name of your CU?

Which credit union offers 4% on all money with them? I know of a few CUs that will offer much higher interest on the first X dollars. Ex: inspiruscu.org

Doesn't some of the states have a "right to repair" law? If memory serves correctly, Tesla had a trouble with that. Will Apple not be affected?

I am invariably going to see in the world of Slack, "IRC, why don't you die already". No, IRC is not going to die. FreeNode is alive and well. And while you busy slamming and wishing death of IRC, just check the memory usage

Also, I am wondering is this different from say, Apple iPhone Locator (apart from the fact that this is relevant to Android)? I think with the latest OS, unless you choose a weak password, your device pretty much could be made a brick if st

While, I completely agree with the fact that the Government is trying to deal with financing terrorists and anti social elements, I think what will now happen is services like xoom.com is going to bloom. It would just shift the transactions

I have come across this kind of support numerous times from various companies like Apple, NEC and Wacom. The result is, I firmly recommend them everytime I have a chance and will continue to do them as long as they provide transparency.

Oh I surely have missed it. Thanks so much for telling me that!!
