I understand and mostly agree. I think Randall was the big proponent
of this as a means to generate flight profiles for every second of
flight for each scenario of 1, 2, 3, or 4 engines out (or was it every
0.1 seconds?). I think I mentioned at the time that in the latter case
it does not so much fly as plummet, but he wanted to know WHERE it was
going to plummet. Something we could file with FAA.
I don't know if he's still adament about it, but thought I'd pass the
link along as a simpler means of achieving the goal, should it still
be desirable.
