Clearly u didnt understand any of the examples of the helicopter question i had for u and your answers were long winded over complicated. None grounded in common sense or critical thought. Spewing nonsense that just doesn't fly.
Im not rehashing all that again to no avail such as your weak response to the pear shape planet your buddy N.D.T states. 😅
I'm absolutely shocked to see you not answer the question 😅. Usually FEers are so forthright with clear and on topic responses 😅.
Just to be extra sure the issue is you have no answer, and not that you misunderstand, I'll ask one last time. Will a remote controlled helicopter hover on a flying plane or will it slam into the back? If an RC helicopter flies from the front to the back and then the back to the front of a flying plane, are the flight times the same or different? If your answers for this example are different than how you claim real aircraft behave on a supposedly spinning globe, why?
I was not going to bring this up, but this is another question you never answered (I know, shocking 😅). NDT is not some prophet of science and the earth is not pear shaped because he says stupid shit in popular media interviews. The shape of the earth is determined by measurement, and obviously as the measurements get more precise the earth does not fit some Platonic ideal form. Now, I asked you:
I am just going to say again, this is why pretty much no one takes FE seriously, and why some people, like myself, assume it is mostly people intentionally trolling. These are simple unambiguous questions you can either answer or not. If not, then the result is the issue is largely settled. To just never answer like this is only explainable by me as trolling, because I don't believe you don't understand the questions.
Is this supposed to be a gotcha or something? Lol
How a drone moves inside a plane? Its dumb and not relative to anything we were discussing. Does the plane a pretend spin to it? Does it have fake gravity to it?
Everything we've debated about the helicopter has to do with the supposed movement of the planet below which u haven't established any coherent rebuttal.. just a bunch of long winded unsatisfactory explanations that are grounded in programming from childhood.
Try common sense, especially when one of your own calls it a pear...😂🍐
LOL!!! I'm sure you meant relevant but this was the most unintentionally ironic comment I've seen yet!
No matter how much you pretend otherwise, a helicopter can hover over a ~1000 mph earth for the same reason a toy drone can hover over a ~500 mph plane. And a plane's east and west flight times over a ~1000 mph earth are the same for the same reason the flight times are the same for flying an RC aircraft from front to back or back to front over a ~500 mph aircraft.
I can't believe this is still happening. Again, NDT is a celebrity who makes pop science content for the average idiot. If you are appealing to stupid shit he says in his interviews, you are literally discrediting yourself. No geodesy book would say "the earth is a pear" because that is retarded.
I disagree with NDT's methods, but he said what he said because the average idiot is too stupid to understand what an octopole is. The "pearness" of the earth is about 7/1000000 the average radius. It isn't a pear.
Relative /rĕl′ə-tĭv/
adjective Considered in comparison or relation to something else. "an animal with a large brain relative to body size; the relative quiet of the suburbs." Having pertinence or relevance; connected or related. "How are those remarks relative to the discussion?" Referring to or qualifying an antecedent, as the pronoun who in the man who was on TV or that in the dictionary that I use. Having the same key signature."
Nope I meant what I said and it looks like you're having another personal gotcha moment...again - 🤣
I can send the definition of "arrogance" to u as well...😂
