Can we have a mature, worthwhile technical discussion without the put downs, sarcasms, and personal attacks?
Flying chicken:
I could not agree more. This entire thread has disintegrated into...well, I don't know what.
The original question addressed
jet aircraft and I have
never in my 30+ years of flying aircraft ever used, heard of anyone using or even advocating the use of asymmetrical thrust in a take-off
OR landing scenario in a
jet aircraft.
PERIOD ! In propeller driven aircraft it is a
different story and there are valid techniques for using asymmetrical thrust in those situations.
Different issue completely folks. Somehow we can't seem to separate piloting techniques in two completely different situations.
Just my two cents worth...and I'm off this thread forever.
