SilentGun Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) Stupid questions about aviation How thick is the rubber on a carrier-born aircraft tire? Edited January 6, 2015 by SilentGun Link to my Imgur screenshots and motto http://imgur.com/a/Gt7dF One day in DCS... Vipers will fly along side Tomcats... Bugs with Superbugs, Tiffy's with Tornado's, Fulcrums with Flankers and Mirage with Rafales... :)The Future of DCS is a bright one:)
Bushmanni Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 Why HUD glass looks green from the front? Does a coating tint reflected light green or is it scattered light from the HUD light source?

Eddie Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 How thick is the rubber on a carrier-born aircraft tire? This kind of thing varies from aircraft to aircraft, and even different types of tyre for each aircraft (temperate or hot&high for example). There's no way to give a single answer, other than to say nothing out of the ordinary..
Bushmanni Posted May 13, 2015 Posted May 13, 2015 The latter, reflections from the CRT tube/projection system. Ok, but how does this reflection occur? Is the reflected light bouncing down from the top of the forward window and then bouncing forward from the HUD glass?
