did anyone know that the blackbird supersonic jet expands over a foot in legnth in flight due to the heat generated by friction when flying supersonic at 65000 feet, crazy fact, gotta love the learning channel

The pilot and his RSO enter the aircraft and the pilot will tell the ground crew to start the engines. The pilot will then move up the throttle about half way. TEB is shot into the tailpipe of the aircraft and a green flash is seen out of the ejector. Then there are about 25 minutes of pre-flight checks before takeoff.
And I am corrected, aparently refueling takes palce 7 minutes after take off

You're wrong Adam.......... it's all about how much cash is in your wallet 
Money buys knowledge. Money buys parts. M-O-N-E-Y......
Anyways, I've said this before. THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS ARE THESE in my mind......... as long as your having --->fun<--- and it isn't becoming a frustrating nitemare and your not living beyond your means money wise, which is REALLY stupid to do. I know some people pushing themselves so hard that their install has become another job.... and a bad one at that. I've been there. Others spending money beyond what they can afford and getting themselves into trouble financially. Yeah sure, it's your choice............. but, this for most is only a hobby. I don't know too many people making an income off their audio system.

I think we all know of a few people living beyond their means to support this addictive hobby.
So far my stash of Canadian tire money has been steadily growing. I find car audio to at least give me SOME return on investment. LOL

Did you know that car audio was once used to help break the landspeed record?
Major surface friction along the body of the vehicle was causing drag. To break it up they measured the resonant frequency of the drag, and mounted an 18" sub inside the vehicle, vented it to the outside, out of phase with the resonance, effectively reducing drag.
Couldn't find a link, correct me if my facts are off...

Actually I read a similar thing about using Buick 428cu in engines to fire up the SR71s [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
The 18" was supposedly in that SuperTuboJetThrust SSR that broke the speed of sound a few years back. I only read about it in hearsay though - not in an article.
Good luck on your quest Adam.

In a world of perfect geometry and how to arrange molecules without creating CHAOS you need to understand the basic's of how sharing idea's works.
In order for you to acheive the sound you want in your car, you first need to realize common sense...trial and error...assuming that you are a super-genious(not to confuse this with sub-genious) your mind still needs to learn and experience different results before the perfect result can be created...so...when various degrees of information can collect into one surface area then ideas can be created from this sharing...without this sharing compatibility in our minds we close the doors to options that are freely shared by everyone simply because our ego does not allow the door to stay open...for example when creating a solution to a problem you must access other files(Ideas) in order to solve it properly assuming you have the ability to use common sense.
The ancient Greeks where masters at this problem solving idea...and the gravity they collected necessary for the idea to materialize was to simply share someone elses opinion. A lot of solutions and problems can be solved using this simple mathematical formula. [img]graemlins/jawdrop.gif[/img]
