The things even skilled observers of this force seem to understand can
be even more subtle than at first thought! Most of us tend to 'view'
things and 'solve' problems in two dimensions. That person is in my
face or I'll just flank attack this, said in humor here. But even a
very skilled and observant person, for example, gains a really more
interesting perspective of life and everything around them when .. for
the first time .. they solo fly an airplane!

The average person takes about six to eight hours of dual instruction to
get to the level of awareness at which it is safe for the flight
instructor to let the student go it alone. Just before takeoff when at
the practicing takeoff and landing routine is going on, just before
takeoff, "Well, your good enough at this to do it on your own! Take it
around the pattern by yourself!" And the flight instructor pops off his
seat belt, opens that right side door of the aircraft in a Cessna 140 or
150, for example. Gets out and slams the door shut and walks away!

The average student is so thrilled and whatever at this he or she just
jams in the throttle and away it goes! But then even the most capable
candidate suddenly has a different perspective of things when as the get
set for their first solo landing. as they are looking down into the
whole space between them and the approach end of the runway, it hits!

It's the first time they ever have really had to make a life or death
decision in more than two dimensions! Height is totally involved here
too. Suddenly, even though they don't realize it, they are dealing with
the third level of infinities. You can have an infinite number of
points in a line. But since you can have an infinitive number of lines
in a plane that means the second order of infinity is so defined! And
.. surprise .. you can have in an infinite number of planes in a cube or
sphere, so there is, for the first time, life or death, the experience
of their total involvement in level three of infinity. Plus since time
is the fourth level of infinity, when the wheels touch the pavement and
the student completes this once in a life time experience, their life
will NEVER be the same again.

For the rest of their life they will begin solving problems and
understanding what is said, displayed, posted in a discussion, all by
looking down into the scenario. And once this is done, you can NEVER go
back again to the person you were before this event.

And no, computer games and flight simulators don't do it, unless the
simulator can kill you if you make a mistake, grin! It has to be the
real thing. Every Peregrine Falcon knows when to turn lose in the dive
of love, as far as I've ever known, chuckle.

But that also doesn't mean you know everything about force problems to
which you are presented, grin! Yes, I was the Chief Flight Instructor
for Texas Airmotive Company at Easterwood Airport in College Station,
Texas, during much of Viet Nam. And I had to ride at least once with
all the Texas Aggies who were trying to become pilots as part of their
path into the future of life. Which, incidentally included such people
as Robert Barr, one of the pilots for the US Air Force One and what
became some 47 US generals. In my humble view all because they jumped
forward to multi-dimension problem solving.

But .. that doesn't mean even at this level of perspective you see all
that confronts you, grin.

I never realized for more than a decade later, how this issue of
Coriolis Force is far more important to all living things than I suspect
even many of us here have understood. As, much later at this, the CEO
for the manufacturer of Hanover Trailers here in Bryan, Texas, the
actual marketing main vector for the introduction of all the gooseneck
cattle and small utility trailers in all the USA, I learned lots more, I
think. Notice I said, "I think." No, the original gooseneck small
utility trailer was originally created by James Batchler of
Throckmorton, Texas, in 1936. But even as it vectored out into the
Hanover Trailer in the 1940's and mushroomed into tons of other
manufacturers, it was the custom horse trailer versions of this which
revealed something else to me about Coriolis Force.

Yes, I knew the toilet water runs around the bowl one way on the North
side of the Equator up here in the USA. And the other direction down in
Australia. But I kept getting asked to build trailers for horse owners
for more than two horses with stalls at an angle! The head of the horse
was asked to be toward the left side of the trailer. The stall gate was
angled back on the right side so the horses were stalled all with their
heads forward and to the left! Teir rear ends behind them and to the
right. I asked, "Why?" I was told, "It's simple, Mike! A normal horse
is right footed. If they go to fall, they always start to put their
right front hoof out first to give then the best chance of handling the
situation."

Hmmmmmmmmm. Interesting. As a human, do a little research. I think
you will find that, just as most humans are right-handed, we tend to
start walking or running with our right foot also! Hmmmmmm.
Interesting. So I started looking down into the problem and yes, dogs
and cats do to! Why? Well, if you peek down into all this, all
vertebrates seem to be right sided, I think.

Duhh .. then why? I speculate. Well, if all vertebrate life is somehow
related over all these eons, is this because all current life forms sort
of focus on evolution on the planet from one side of the Equator? And
they swim looking for food kind of right sided so they don't have to
fight the average Coriolis Force against it for the best chance at
eating easiest? And so on? And does this really mean that this is
really all 'proof' that even the humans came from what was most
efficiently evolving in the march of life traveling the the fourth
dimension that we need? Even for huge numbers of generations?

And might be even more of an explanation why there is still so much fuss
going on between even very brilliant and skilled engineers who may not
even ever see the real issues of why things seem to be different between
them, or the need to do everything we can to go forward with the least
confusion and flanking amongst us all?

For what is going to become of all this Coriolis Force issue, perhaps,
on December 21, 2012, and who will be in the right doing what for all us
humans and so on at that time?

Chortle!


Oh my Goodness, is this Art's Doppelganger?
