Default RE: A turbine as a first PLANE

LOL what a great thread!!

I have seen this kind of discussion in the jet section several times over the last few years. Very similar to this one

A couple of things these kind of threads seem have in common:

1.) There are some people that just want to be contrarian, period (Heck I like to do it to sometimes) They will always bring up the exception case or the boundary condition and extend that to some ridiculous extreme to flex inteelectual muscle.

2.) The water is muddied by confusing (either intentionally or unintentionally) what is "possible" with what is "reasonable" or "smart".

This always reminds me of a great Chris Rock line about single motherhood. "

Sure, you can raise a child without a father, doesn't mean it is smart.

Just like driving a car with your feet, suppose it is possible but that don't make it a good idea!!"
