This person doesn't know how airplanes work

2020-01-17 00:27:06 UTC  

Engines only provide forward thrust, the wings themselves give the lift, on the same principle as sailboats

2020-01-17 00:32:38 UTC  

I’m not responding to the ‘if’ scenario. Just sharing something else. https://youtu.be/2yhzNJfV5Ko

2020-01-17 00:34:26 UTC  

well said it's not the thruster that maneuvers the airplane but it's the elevator, aileron, spoiler, fllaps and rudder which moves it either up, down, left or right

2020-01-17 00:36:31 UTC  

for lift to happen there must be the thrust happening and the aileron, flaps, spoiler and elevator all activated

2020-01-17 03:15:15 UTC  

yes, accurate

2020-01-17 03:15:39 UTC  

one engine is enough to provide sufficient thrust to keep a plane airborne

Hello fellow flatties how is everyone?

2020-01-17 09:49:44 UTC  
2020-01-17 09:50:00 UTC  

why is the earth flat

2020-01-17 09:52:14 UTC  

@here

2020-01-17 09:52:36 UTC  
2020-01-17 09:53:44 UTC  

plz someone

2020-01-17 09:54:13 UTC  

It’s what we observe, measure, and experiment with in reality.

2020-01-17 09:54:27 UTC  

but its round

2020-01-17 09:55:06 UTC  

@Derek Nelson is that all you have

2020-01-17 09:55:58 UTC  

That’s literally all I need. That’s what proof requires.

2020-01-17 09:56:19 UTC  

@Just Round like a quarter? Okay then.

2020-01-17 09:56:26 UTC  

no

2020-01-17 09:56:27 UTC  

spheric

2020-01-17 09:56:43 UTC  

How am I supposed to know what you mean?

2020-01-17 09:56:57 UTC  

Am I just supposed to assume your gender too?

2020-01-17 09:57:00 UTC  

yes

2020-01-17 09:57:03 UTC  

Omg, what a bigot you are.

2020-01-17 09:57:16 UTC  

What about gravity

2020-01-17 09:57:17 UTC  

my man derek nelson

2020-01-17 09:57:29 UTC  

Wait, you don't believe in gravity? What about the tides? The interaction between the Earth and the Moon sort of proves that gravity exists.

2020-01-17 09:58:19 UTC  

Tides aren’t really explainable in any scenario. They’re a phenomenon. And gravity requires a belief. When the earth is flat, we don’t have to believe that.

2020-01-17 09:58:19 UTC  

How can a lunar eclipse happen if the Earth is flat?

2020-01-17 09:58:34 UTC  

you know surfing

2020-01-17 09:58:38 UTC  

where waves go swoosh

2020-01-17 09:58:41 UTC  

swoosh

2020-01-17 09:58:42 UTC  

Ngl. Lunar eclipses are mysterious.

2020-01-17 09:58:42 UTC  

swossh

2020-01-17 09:58:43 UTC  

wossh

2020-01-17 09:58:50 UTC  

you need gravity for that

2020-01-17 09:58:50 UTC  

so

2020-01-17 09:59:06 UTC  

Isaac Newton explained that ocean tides result from the gravitational attraction of the sun and moon on the oceans of the earth

2020-01-17 09:59:26 UTC  

There’s only theories. Not proof.

2020-01-17 09:59:34 UTC  

and my man have you ever been to a beach

2020-01-17 10:00:06 UTC  

I’ve been to a beach. Even to a lakeside or seashore.
