Can't you crash into something else where you might have a chance to survive?

I am fully aware that pilots in the US cannot be on any anti depressents and i know the medicine i take is banned. But how long do i have to be off before i can get a certificate. I also plan on becoming an airline pilot will this conflict much? Are the rules strict? Do they have to do a lot of testing? Anything would help if anyone knows something about anti-depressents or depression with aviation.

With the recent incident surrounding the Yankees pitcher with 95 hours of flight time, is it safer statistically for a person who has recently picked up private flying, or safer for a motorcycle rider perusing the dangerous public roads?

Is anyone as tired as I am of the media freenzy surounding the tragic accident in the NYC VFR corridor? The media types are looking for sinsationalizm and titilating news gossip. Debbie Hersman from the NTSB is doing a great job and sticking with the known facts. I certaintley hope there will not be a knee jerk reaction brought on by mis informed political powers and news media prattle.

ok i was wondering if you had a single engine cessna but instead of having 1 prop you had two
one of them would spin clockwise and the other would spin counter clock wise. if youve ever seen the aviator they have a simular concept.

would this have any advantages as far as speed or performance

All the f-4s for microsoft flight simulator and a model I have, have Navy on the fuselage. Didn't the USAF have any f-4s?

Really, the training includes rehearsing all sorts of things that novice pilots need to know about, and many of these maneuvers are to some extent dangerous, as are landings and takeoffs.

For me, I like Emirates & Kuwait Airways [although it's been a long time I have'nt rode that airline].. Emirates has many great inflight services.. you can even watch your own movies, cartoons, & play video games. Emirates also provides cameras both forward & downward somewhere outside the cockpit to let you see what's happening outside the plane... Emirates cabin crews are friendly and always help you throughout the flight.

I read somewhere that there's a free website where you can details of planes flying over certain areas in the UK. Anyone know what the site is?

Why?
I was watching TV and a show mentioned these. I can't see why they would be beneficial.
Propellers going the same direction seem to get the job done.
Ok, watching TV gets me into trouble, can anyone help me get out?
Just curious....

This a thermodynamic question from a chapter on specific heats, entropy & adaibatic-processes: "Commerical jet aircraft fly at cruising altitudes between 30,000 & 40,000 ft. Yet such aircraft carry heat exchangers to cool cabin air while flying at these altitudes. (a) Estimate the air temperature at which jet aircraft fly. (b) Explain why it is necessary to cool cabin air at cruising altitudes. Hint: The ratio of the heat capacities of air at constant pressure and volume is about 1.4." I alrealy have the answer to (a). It's 181 Kelvins. I need help with (b). Even if you could just give me a verbal answer for why airplanes have to cool their cabins and hence pressurize them would be helpful. Thanks.

I read this article and it was suggesting that people who are over weight are supposed to purchase first class or buy 2 seats. Since other services that ship stuff it is charged by the pound such as UPS FedEx and so on, people should climb onto a scale with their luggage and pay buy their weight. Also the more the weight of the plane the more gas that is needed.

The army says there are not enough helicopters in Afghanistan, so I'm wondering about buying them one! (Joke!) But don't know how much they cost. I guess chinooks are dearer than others, but don't know.
