'''LILO-LOWI Adrenaline''' is a theater where to explore and train your pilot skills "at the edge." | |||
No one will do this "in the real life..." | |||
Actually, this is not so sure. In real life, "real" pilots have to train to react | |||
appropriately in extreme situation. | |||
And yes, you already got it, they do it not in the real plane but in simulators ! | |||
But the | Well, here in Flightgear, it does seems we already have the simulator. What still | ||
was missing was a theater to train at the edge... | |||
Now, with LILO-LOWI-Adrenaline, we have it ! | |||
One could argue within himself, "yes but for the small planes only..." | |||
Well, small planes is the best way to learn the "habits" that save your life | |||
when later you fly a "big plane". | |||
All the real life pilots : | |||
- "Gimli Glider, Captain Robert (Bob) Pearson, Air Canada flight 43, at Manitoba, | |||
zero loss and minimal damage to the plane ; | |||
- Captain Tadeusz Wrona (+officer Jerzy Szwarc) - belly landed the B767 with no | |||
injuries to anyone (LOT Polish Airlines Flight 16, Nov 2011) ; | |||
- Captain Chesley Sullenberger (+officer Jeffrey Skiles) accomplishing that | |||
controversial but impossible landing on the Hudson river (US Airways Flight | |||
1549); | |||
- Captain Carlos Dardano (+officer Dionisio Lopez) achieve a dead stick landing | |||
on the grass levee at Michoud (New Orleans) May 1988 (Taca flight 110) ; | |||
all off them have, of course several things in common, but one have called for | |||
my attention : countless hours of flight in small plane with the habit to take | |||
their small planes at the edge. | |||
If you still have doubts, think, is their out any aviation company or flight | |||
school that spent heavy money to train edge / extreme situations ? | |||
Indeed, not really, some company have started to do more advanced training but | |||
only after already lost hundred of lives ! | |||
So, this is what have driven me. The creation of a theater where we all could | |||
exercise at the extreme and with a bit of chance and perseverance become better | |||
"virtual" pilots. | |||
My 1st idea was to call it '''''"Disengage Auto-Pilot"''''' . | |||
But the first tries run by myself and others in the meanwhile I was designing the | |||
