I think I've figured out what confused me. :facepalm: In Scandinavia AC is almost always used in conjunction with ventilation. I'm guessing that in warmer climates buildings aren't insulated to the extent that the main problem is ventilation. Most examples I've seen on-line use re-circulation...

Wrong, sorry. Assuming you are talking about relative humidity. And relative humidity is (along with wind speed) the most important factor when it comes to comfort. When you chill air down below its dew-point, you will remove water. But air that's at its dew point has by definition a relative...

I'm a bit confused when it comes to the subject of air conditioning. When I studied the subject in engineering college air conditioning meant conditioning the air, not just cooling it. In fact the most important factor is the humidity. If you cool the air more than a few degrees below the...

:rofl: We used to do a similar thing by adding "...with an axe"

It's great to have a place where you can go: Cop: Do you realize that you were doing 95 mph? Heisenberg: Oh great. Now I'm lost! ...without people giving you weird looks. :hailprobe:

That is probably the reason most of us enjoy our time on this forum. :cheers:

I bet Sir David McDavidface gets chills down his spine whenever he hears the words "Internet naming contest". :rofl:

Kerbal Space Program is kinda here. :) And it is entertaining.

Aaaaw!

I suspect this is meant to be flown mostly by computers, maybe without pilots at all. Sort of a Jetsons future thingie. The problem is that the world changes too fast for extra long term plans. A good example would be "future" aviation in the 1930's. Everyone believed that flying boats were the...

Or a windy day. ---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:51 PM ---------- For the younger audience:

To calculate the correct camber, you have the know the speed and radius. AFAIK planes do not always touch down at the same speed. What exactly are the advantages? I can only see one! RWY length. Listing the disadvantages would look like an essay. I'd rather land in a F9 stage on a barge than on...

Does it have electrolytes?

... and many of them live in Australia. :huh:

Dangit!!! A quite good IMHO April fools story that went unnoticed. http://www.farming-simulator.com/newsArticle.php?lang=en&country=us&news_id=56

The number of inhabitants of the Faroe islands has (most likely) passed 50k for the first time ever. The preliminary count was 50,030 by April 1 and will probably not be revised below 50k. The preliminary March 1 count was 50,006 but has already been revised to 49,994. The number will probably...

It was more expensive to reuse STS SRBs than to replace them, so reusing fairings would probably make even less sense economically. I'm guessing it depends on how expensive the "re-certification" is.

Extreme recycling. :thumbup:
