That was Alpha Centauri and back? Looks like you ran out of fuel about .7 lightyears from earth. :lol:

Not that anyone could give a toss, but I used -13 launch angle, 100 strength of throw and 8 degrees on the wings.

Now I think I'll go back to sleep for a while........ :cry:

Although few seem to care, I have now managed to throw the paper plane backwards nearly sixty metres. It appears far harder to fling it over your head to any great distance and so I claim victory buy a tenious and wildly optomstic default.

And also as I can only chuck it eighty odd metres in the correct direction

Got me!
However, as for flying a plane I think I win

However as far as flying a plane is concerned I think I win convincingly.

What ARE you suggesting? 8O

I am suggesting that u have the exact same values on angle, thrust, elevator, altitude, max altitude, revolutions, time aloft, and number of throws as BlueBall (and Stryker) but you have the amazing 9 exchanged for the 3 before. Not to rain on your parade but you also have the wrong font on the 9. Gives you away big time ...

Bugger! (It's not the wrong font though)

Oh bollox bollox bollox bollox bollox bollox and I say once again bollox.
Had a power cut at 11:40 today and at 16:10, yep you guessed it, no power still.
I'm lost, no pc no coffee no nothing.

Stryker · October 27, 2002, 04:52:25 PM

use this geom....... it exploits an error in the math

angle -4
thrust 67
elevator 2

and startle your friends with your scores :-)

TeaLeaf · October 27, 2002, 05:06:49 PM
