Yep, but first I would park right in the centre of a major city, to maximise the inconvenience and publicize what is going on. Closing the commercial centre of a city for a few hours should get some unwanted attention to the agency involved.
This was the most sucessful attempt at a human powered aircraft. It required 400w to maintain level flight. Powered by pdeals and a propellor, it would be significantly more efficient than a wing flapping system, which produces large vorticies.
It was very fragile to acheive its 100KG auw and an encounter with even mild turbulance would have destroyed it.
Ahem, Laminar flow is NOT neccesary to generate lift, turbulent flow does too, it just produces higher drag in the process.
In fact modern sailplanes deliberately turbulate laminar flow where a laminar seperation bubble might form, which causes more drag than turbulent flow. Airfoils are desidned very carefully to control the transistion between laminar and turbulent flows.
What I think you are confusing is streamilned flow and laminar flow.
Interesting you say that. I do not like standing on the edge at tall buldings, getting a vertigo feeling, but I fly gliders and no matter how high I go I am perfectly happy
Why do I need self defence when there is little to no threat. Only americans have the foolish belief that guns are needed for self defence-we have a whole country here without them and it is simply not a problem. If we have a government we dont like, we vote them out as is appropriate. There is essentially zero threat from the govt to me.
Just yesterday a criminal was killed by police whilst pointing a shotgun at them. That is the first time I can recall the police shooting anyone in South Australia.
Face it you live in a violence crazed society driven by the irrational love of weapons violence and revenge.
I do not believe there will ever be an armed revoulution in the US, as there has not been since its foundation.
But by all means follow your delusion, it provides boundless laughs for the rest of the world at your silly overcompensation and paranoia.
In South Australia we have caontainer deposit rules for all cans, drink cartons and bottles. When one visits other states, the level of this sort of rubbish in the environment is huge compared to our very tidy state. It seems a good thing to me.
It is illegal in.au to export ewaste to third world countries. I deal a lot with the local govenment computer recycling scheme, where I get a lot of system for my poor schools. They are banned from exporting any ewaste.
Police are continously selectively enforcing the law. Everry time any cop doesnt book a litter bug or a illegally parked car they are using their discretion. Personally I would like the police to concentrate on protecting people from violence and theft not enforcing pot laws for example.
To fast froward on my latop based HTPC, all I need to do is place the mouse over the timeline and use the scoll wheel. This was the standard setup of VLC. Easy!
I just use a HP NC8230 laptop on a docking station with wireless KB+mouse.
Does all except blueray. Quiet, low power consumption and cheap, as the laptop does not charge its battery due to a faulty charging circuit. Even a laptop with a broken screen is fine.

In .au Telstra the former public carrier is forced to allow ISP acces to its copper lines for ADSL.
I have literally a dozen or more choices of provider.
Interesting how the bastion of free market porpaganda has much less choice of ISP than
overegulated, socialist Australia.
I can choose from at least a dozen providers, for ADSL2 here.
No bank bailouts were needed here.
We dont allow idiots to have guns either.
The rest of the world is not entirely convinced that you are less likely to be harmed by another citizen who has a gun than your government.
Statistics in most western countries strongly bear this out
There seems to never be an end to the excuses some Americans will try to justify the obvious excess of firearms in their society.
What was perhaps thought needed 200 years ago
does not necessarily still apply. How many armed revolutions have you had again?
Just the one, the war of independence I think.

tells the story nicely.
I do actually hop im a glider and use various forms of lift to maintain flight.

The human body has a max output of about 200 watts. About 1/4 HP. sustained flying is probably a pipe dream.

You Sir are either a liar stupid or a paid military shill. I wonder which?
Didnt you SEE the vidoe. Only a fool would make the claims you make based of the video evidence. No weapons no insurgents only civllians.
Maybe you need new glasses.
Funny, I thought I just fitted a flash based SSD to my Dell D430, replacing the old fashioned hard drive.
I must have imagined it.
How is living in the past anyway?
Eureka stockade was a failed revolution of criminals against the govt.
I do not know even one person in .au who thinks a the general population should be armed.
It is YOU who have no idea of the opinion of the general pubic.
Speaking as an Australian citizen, I am glad our society does not have every idiot armed with a gun.
Fact is the US public would never have a successful armed revolution as they are so divided politically.
The bizzaro dream that such could occur is just an excuse to allow overcompensating morons to have guns. Not for us thanks.
4 inches WIDE! (:

They wanted US troops out of Saudi arabia, and they are out! Sounds like they got what they wanted.

Nice and compact too.
I get 15Mb/s on ADSL 2 in .au.
My father gets 24Mb/s.
