also, just because someone says the fly an airplane, does not make them a 100% expert.. i am not type rated in the XP, but i have been able to get some sim time.. not to mention that i am not in the actual airplane considering i am only getting ground school and sim time at FSI.. talk to me in a few weeks

Dude,

This is why I hate webboard "experts". Uconn, you might have more info about the Hawker than I do, but don't pass yourself off as being in the know (by saying "I fly the XP now") if you haven't even finished ground school.

It does nothing but hurt your credibility for the future. You free to tell us that you've discussed it in training. Or with other Hawker pilots. But don't pass yourself off as somthing you aren't. That's lame.

Fair deal. Sorry if my initial rant was a bit harsh. I guess that all of the CRJ "experts" that have surfaced this week have been driving me up the wall a bit.

Yes, and I can also say goodbye...please find another forum to troll.

UConnQB14's decision to misrepresent himself is self-correcting, and as pointed out kills his current and future credibility. Instead of calling him on the issue of claiming to be something he's not, you elect to lob personal attacks. After reading some of your other posts, you really don't bring anything to the table.

I can't think of a single aircraft that does 450 KIAS at 16,000...

[QUOTE=...judging by the force of the crash, there is a high probability of damage to that system..."[/QUOTE]

Wow, please advise actual forces measured: from either accelerometers, accident report, or from your sources (probably Kevin). Then - and only then - can we assess probability of system decay.

I can name about a dozen. They all start with the letter F. F-16, F-18, etc.
