  • Does anyone know about the Have Blue's cockpit? 5 months ago

    "We were able to take a lot of off the shelf components from other vehicles," said Burnett. "The flight control system was lifted out of (General Dynamics') F-16 design. The engines were out of the (Northrop) T-38, and the nose gear also came off a T-38. And the main gear were from the F-104, if I remember correctly. The ejection seat was from the F-16." To put it all together, tools were pulled from Lockheed's C-5 cargo plane line.

    The F-16's flight control system was an important piece of the puzzle, because it was a "fly-by-wire" control system. Since the strange nature of Have Blue design would make the aircraft inherently unstable in flight—more than any human pilot could cope with—it needed a "fly-by-wire" control system to make it work. "Because we knew we had a very unstable vehicle, the F-16 flight controllers made a lot of sense," Burnett said.

    The rest of the cockpit layout was decidedly low tech. Aside from the F-16's "side stick" arrangement, the Have Blue aircraft used "a lot of the old-fashioned steam gauges for instrumentation," Burnett explained.

  • Does anyone know about the Have Blue's cockpit? 5 months ago

    idk, but there might be a write up somewhere that says something like "using the f-16 instrument cluster and the f-5 stick etc" yk what i mean? lots of those kinda aircraft used off the shelf parts

  • Haven't felt a sense of joy in a while. 1.7 years ago

    One thing I’ve done which helps my heart go numb is listening to all of spacey Jane’s songs and also just songs in general
    Try not let the Instagram algorithm get to your head either take a break from screens they make me more stressed and go spend some time in nature w supportive friends, and find something to get lost in too
    Idk

    Honestly going thru sum stuff myself
    My brain reverts back to thinking about her all the time and all the things I never got to say and the things we had planned but it just wasn’t the best for us in the end
    I know it’s different from what your going thru
    But something that helped me massively is talking to my close family and especially my auntie and uncle like they helped me see that the future is going to be better and that good things are ahead, while now it’s hell on earth try your best to take some positives, it’s not the same as your situation, but, if I may suggest, when your ready focus on the positives from what has happened and the lessons you can learn and even though that person isn’t there anymore they can still teach you and help you become a better person through your memories
    I hope this is ok to say
    Please if it’s not just remove it or I can I barely ever log in
    :) all the best, take care, deal with it safely :)

  • General Dynamics F-16A Falcon 3.5 years ago

    great build!!
    also had a look and found this, on wikipedia, about the first flight which was accidental "While gathering speed, a roll-control oscillation caused a fin of the port-side wingtip-mounted missile and then the starboard stabilator to scrape the ground, and the aircraft then began to veer off the runway. The test pilot, Phil Oestricher, decided to lift off to avoid a potential crash, safely landing six minutes later. @FairFireFlight @BogdanX
    edit: about the stabilator
