*** Posted by Rapier *** Put it this way, the bigger the object the more drag there is through air space. You dont need all this mathematical shit it's just the way it is. Regards Rapier

*** Posted by Kim Nielsen *** Hi Rapier. You must have misunderstood my letter. I'm not facinated of the sound, but surprised, and interested in the technique around the background why it appears to its standing level such sudden (aproximately within a speed-difference of less than 50 km/t, due to the elapsed time of between 5 and 10 seconds ...

*** Posted by Kim Nielsen *** OK! I'm glad to experie that the case is'nt closed. This is why I'm able to ask You, to take Your time. So: Dont run, run (run@) :-) Kim. My mistake I wrote red bow, but meant red bowe, so we are talking about the present-alike Draken. I haven't figured out the story about the Dragon so I will investigate a little

*** Posted by Rapier *** Hello, Firstly I would just like to ask Kim what is the facination with the sound of air on the outside of the fuselage? All planes are aerodynamic, some more than other's particularly regarding fighter's. When you go supersonic in an airliner (pretty rare apart from Concorde) you dont notice anything special from the ...

*** Posted by run *** I've always experienced the noise as gradually increasing, but in a couple of weeks I'm going on a DC-10 to US & then I will try to listen for it. I don't see any reason why this should happen, but I'm looking forward to listen myself. In the F-16 it's a gradual increase in noise. run [Recently homecomed from a charter

*** Posted by Rapier *** I'm sorry I cant help you Kim, I would like to know these stories as well but I think it's a little bit of History I dont know? Maybe RUN will know or someone else?

*** Posted by Kim Nielsen *** Recently homecomed from a charter trip to south Spain, one Q about drag lies on my tounge: During the actual 737's acceleration in air, airnoise around the fuselage appears quite sudden and keeps in the same sound level for the rest of acceleration and flight. I've done the same observation in as well a 727, as an ...

*** Posted by ICE *** Hello, This here is the real ICE. haha. Did you know that not just the Airforce gives out nicknames. I was with ATC at Schiphol Airport and it got me the nick ICE.
