Absolutely. In fact, flying an aircraft with fixed wings doesn't make significant difference in these terms - the fixed-wing aircraft is just a bit more forgiving if you make mistakes while in air (your passengers might be _not_ ;-) This is why you will always get into trouble doing a 'smooth' landing with just a simple, spring-loaded joystick - even with the C172, Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
