Hi, The FAA may not care, but a 4 pound chunk of metal being hit by a plane travelling 400KM/H or more will take out the pilot, and likely cause a small plane to crash. If a 747 is hit in the right spot, even that may come down.. Single engine aircraft windshields are tested to withstand 2lb birds or less. A 4 pound bird will already go through the windshield, even at medium speeds at low altitudes, I know someone who this happened to. bye, Said In a message dated 5/31/2010 03:01:41 Pacific Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:
Do you let it run continuously or do you do something to save power? What's the total payload weight? One of the people I talked to at Maker-Faire said the FAA doesn't care if it's under 4 pounds. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
