Memories,

heres an old article on we we were doing in the F28s and airfield surveys,
whilst off topic, it may be of interest.

Item 8 -- (8) good low speed handling and go-around performance from very
low altitude;


This i clearly remember like yesterday, sitting in the jump seat at the end
of a VASI approach test, under full power doing 180 turnback to 1000 feet,
cows beside the airstrip just below us, running in all directions with their
tails wrapped up over their backs. It looked like we were going to put the
wingtip up their backsides.

We thought it was a hell of a joke, but the farmer I assume was not
impressed.

The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE:
Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
Find and fix more than 250 security defects in the development cycle.
Locate bottlenecks in serial and parallel code that limit performance.
