That would be the worlds sport aviation bodies, who mostly delegate matters involving records to the FAI.
Without an FAI logger (More correctly called an IGC logger, not an FAI logger, as they are mainly used for gliding, powered aircraft records are mostly pointless) there is no real world proof, other than the word of the manufacturers. The loggers are made by a few different manufaturers, such as LX navigation, Volkslogger and EW.
No FAI/IGC logger = no CREDIBLE record. Does that make it easier to understand?
They were so concerned not to let anyone see the plane they published a photo on the Internet.....pleeease.
Proof is very inconvenient eh?
IGC = International Gliding Commission.
To the poster who mentioned would a logger fit, they are quite small, around the size of a packet of 20 cigarettes, and would easily fit into the machine shown.
The poster who mentioned the AMA is on the right track, that would be the proper organisation, but guess what, they are a FAI affiliate, so I am guessing the same rules apply.
AC, they were so concerned not to let anyone see the plane they published a photo and details on the Internet.....pleeease, get a grip!
NO FAI record claim can be lodged, and quite right too. Any FAI record claim must be overseen by a registered FAI official observer, who checks data loggers installation and seals. The loggers use an encryption system, and strong physical security to prevent cheating
No FAI logger/observer=no record.
There would be several official FAI observers at each gliding club just about everywhere, so they are easy enough to find if needed. If these guys really wanted an official record they should have followed the rules.
Some years ago I had a house on a very large piece of land in the Adelaide Hills, in South Australia.
Many magpies lived in the surrounding trees.
I lost count of the number of times that when I arrived home from work at about 5:30PM and found a bunch of 20 or more Magpies were standing very close together in the middle of the driveway, babbling away as they do. They were not eating, and were literally standing shoulder to shoulder. The odd thing was it was always around that time of day.
It looked for all the world as though they were having a resident magpie association meeting, and discussing something somewhat vigourously.
It certanly made me think!(About Hitchcocks The Birds!)
Some years ago I lived at a property in the Adelaide Hills where there were many resident Magpies living in the trees around the large block the house was on.
On at least 3 occasion when I arrived home from work I would find a large group of Magpies (20 OR MORE) standing on the ground in very close proximity to each other.
It looked for all the world as though they were holding a meeting OF THE local magpies resident'S association. Once I could have thought to be conicidence, but it happened on MANY occasions-I would love to know what they were talking about!
True enough McGrew, but Irish Americans happily supported terrorism financially right up until 9/11-It was no coincidence that after that the IRA gave up-when their US funding stopped. As usual, terrorism was OK with America as long as it was somewhere else.
Why on earth is there a presidential veto in the US?
Why is the president allowed to override legislation produced by elected representatives?
It must be the most stupid concept I have encountered in politics.
I am very thankfull we have a constitutional monarchy in OZ, the head of state has only a ceremonial role, the leader is elected by the majority of representatives. This works very well. Whilst the Governor General is appointed by the government, the appointment is generally uncontroversial and bipartisan. Saves a huge bill for elections too
As an agnostic you_are_a_believer, just dont act on it. You also were more than likely to have been part of organized religion at some stage, so you are an adult who believes in imaginary friends.
Any observations you make are made in the light of your beliefs.
My observations are the opposite of yours. Particularly the catholic faith seems to promote evil(By forgiving all sins wtih just a few hail marys).
See what I just did; I gave anecdotal evidence with no real backing to make a claim, this is familiar ground on slashdot eh?
Quite right, recently there was a TV forum on file sharing and one lad had a great perspective on downloading. He said " If I hear something good from an up and coming act, I am happy to buy the CD. I wont however pay for more bling for some mega rich rapper. Summed it up pretty well.
This reminds me of a show I once mixed (I was a freelance sound engineer at the time) The artist, Joe Camilleri (Well known here in Australia) was on a stage in the middle of the main shopping street/mall in Adelaide, right next to a record store. At the side of stage were the record compant reps.
At one point Joe told the audience to buy his CD, then looking pointedly at the record company reps said "Or you could just put 20 cents in the hat"- cause that was how much he got from the CD sales(Which at that time cost $30 aust). The reps looked most uncomfortable, as I LMAO at the mixing desk.
One of the principal faults of corporate law is that corporations are artificial persons with respect to the law and almost always fall under the term "persons."
Fixed that for ya!
This is only in the US by the way, most other countries do not view corporations as people.
You got moded flamebait cause you posted flamebait. I have repeatedly been modded down by right wingers here, but I dont whine about it, get over it and grow up.
A fire KILLED at least 95 people-fixed that for ya.
All the rantings about the FBI killed ignore the fact the the people involved refused to follow legally issued instructions from police, apart from being well armed lunatics.
AQ I would guess is simply waiting for the towers to be replaced.
I cant believe this-in Aust we pay a single fee for both registration and 3rd party injury insurance, the insurance scheme is govt run, and it works very well, by having all drivers pay towards the cost. How incredibly backward, having the two seperate. No surprise here.

Is there some part of the word "register" that you dont find clear? If it did not make an automated record it would just be a cash draw.

They were not eating anything.
Yeh, your anecdotes are in contradiction to the pile of reports and complants about the Iphone.
Everything you say about your iphone I could say about my 02 XDA2.

MAny many problems for many users.
You are missing the point!

Heaven knows, you would not want the universities to have to compete on academic merit would you?
What kind of system would that produce?
Excellence at sport is obviously vital to a good education in the US.
Why on earth is there a presidential veto in the US?
Why is the president allowed to override legislation produced by elected representatives?

According to the dear departed Douglas Adams,
The ultimate question is either;
Where shall we have lunch or what is 6 x 9=42
To be comparable with the jesus phone they would have to cripple the range and make it drop out regularly.
Gotta be the most overhyped POS of the last 10 years.
Even better, JOhn Landy-see

Now thats a good sportsman.
The world being better without alcohol and tobacco.
Fixed that for ya
The official 2006 Australian statistics figures for deaths from drugs.
Tobacco 19,000
Alcohol 2,871
All illegal drugs 864
So yeah, the world would be a better place without the legal drugs.
Yes they do.

Ah you mean state the bleeding obvious truth then?
Nice try at positive spin on Iraq though, pity its bullshit.
Its based on their juvenille belief that the writings of that silly old fool Henlein, its a direct quote in fact.
They will never believe that other countries without guns still are polite.

Nah Bush has just been responsible for the deaths of 100's of thousands of Iraqi people, much better.
Ever heard of the Alcohol and tobacco beureau, who were actually the people who were involved at Waco.
