hmm what's that bomber nose to the left
<soundnfury>
it almost looks like a Lanc, but a few things are just... wrong
<Bornholio>
you mean canadian
<Rokker>
soundnfury: really?
<Rokker>
soundnfury: I got u loved britplanes
<Rokker>
thot*
<soundnfury>
Rokker: the cockpit looks too short, and the blown-bowl for the bomb-aimer also looks odd, leading me to wonder whether I identified it correctly at all
<Rokker>
anyways concert, gtg
<soundnfury>
does a Canadian Lanc apologise after it drops bombs on you?
<Bornholio>
lol, my grandpa had a lancaster drop bombs on him instead of the factory he was calling fire on once
<Bornholio>
as a candian he would have appreciated that joke
<Bornholio>
canadian
<soundnfury>
Bornholio: hmm, using lancasters as arty tends not to go so well
<soundnfury>
more of a job for bostons and marauders and other such yankee planes I guess
<Bornholio>
americans didn't support british insurgents in czech areas
<Rokker>
soundnfury: before I go to listen to music, bullpup hype
<lamont>
ferram4_ if you’re still around — is there a way to pull Cd/Cl mach curves off of a rocket sitting on the pad? basically a programmatic way to get the information the GUI tools in the VAB show? (and i’m not at the point where i actually care what those APIs are since I’m not ready to code anything, but just wondering if its possible...)
<Dasm>
Rokker NICE!
<Dasm>
I meant to say Event*
<Mike`>
btw lamont, latest peg seems to work beautifully, just did an excellent dogleg into the plane of the moon :)
<lamont>
wait till you see what an actual trajectory optimizer can do...
<Mike`>
:D

ProjectThoth has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
ProjectThoth has joined #RO
<ferram4_>
lamont, it should be possible, I think I've even got code to do that in the FARAPI so that Trajectories can make use of it
<Dasm>
Rokker So did he like "The Right Stuff" ?
<Rokker>
Dasm: crowd was too big and now hes eating and I dont wanna bother him
<Rokker>
I have an hour to ask
<Dasm>
Awesome
<lamont>
ah that’s cool, and yeah its probably the same use case — maybe even simpler
<ProjectThoth>
Rokker: Go into the garbage and sell his half-eaten sandwich.
<lamont>
although i have dreams one day of a high lift-to-drag SSTO trajectory optimizer which might be more complicated, but those are gonna remain dreams for quite some time...
<Rokker>
ProjectThoth: holy fuck
<Rokker>
I'm sitting next to milton thompsons daughter
<Rokker>
ProjectThoth: gahhhhh
<ProjectThoth>
Rokker: Brett Thompson?
<Rokker>
ProjectThoth: ahhhhh
<Rokker>
hes getting in the x-15
<Rokker>
aaaaaaaaa
<ProjectThoth>
Rokker: Like, the one in the museum?
<Rokker>
ProjectThoth: yes
<ProjectThoth>
oshit
<Rokker>
ProjectThoth: this will be the last time an x-15 pilot will be in the X-15
