Jim, 
Harry Rat is the guy who keeps the official measurement for a knot. However, 
it's been noted that as he's gotten older the knot may being coming untied and 
the measurement has been changing...at least it appears that way based upon the 
numerous numbers listed for the official size of a knot :-)

I'm back in bidness, sorta.  My main hard drive in my PC crashed the 
other morning, I got the machine resurrected more or less by 
re-installing WinXP on another drive I had in the box.  I tried to do a 
backup and discovered that the full backup of the failed HD was not to 
be found on another HD -- I had done a backup just a couple days before 
when the HD started making Unhappy Noises.  WinXP does not see any files 
on that HD but Acronis (my backup program) will see files on it, though 
not the backup file I did with it just a couple days before.  h.  I 
had also done a copy of my email files over to another HD, so had that 
fairly new.


Anyway, got my backed files transferred over to an iMac, will see how 
this works out.  At first it did not work, but then I found a simple 
process and got it going.  Now to keep fooling with the PC to see if I 
can recover everything.  ugh.

 Not sure how'd you work a 4,6,9 shift? The working RPM range
 of a American style big Diesel is ~1400-2100, every gear in a
 crash box is about 500rpm, so skipping from 6 to 9 would mean
 you either rev the guts out of the engine or lug it up from
 about 800rpm, neither of which is good practice.

The _loaded_ RPM range starts at 1200 to 1400.  But bobtail it
pull plenty strong from under 1000.  And keep in mind, any sort
of drag racing isn't good practice in _any_ vehicle! *grin*

Heh.  I'm sitting here at my desk, waving my arm around like I'm
shifting gears... (right arm, 'cause I never drove a big truck
anywhere but in North America).  Maybe it was 3,6,8.  I do
recall I did it mostly in town.

Also the RPM drop per gear is a percent, not a RPM.  The 7, 9,
10, and 13 speed transmissions (for class 8 highway trucks with
10-14 L engines) all have about the same ratio in 1st and it the
top gear.  The size of the steps change.  15 and 18 speed
transmissions typically add deeper low gears.

I didn't drive bobtail very many miles compared to those with a
trailer, and it was a few years ago.

Reportedly turning at that altitude in a U2 was a hairy experience --  
the outside wing would be shaking because it was going into a high  
speed shock stall, and the inside wing would be shaking in a low  
speed aerodynamic stall.


Of course, it wasn't carrying passengers, either.
