Question:


Answers:

I wanna know passenger flight can stay at same place?

I know for a fact that the Martin 130, as flown by Pan American World Airways had a dining area and sleeping berths. The Boeing probably did as well (my dad used to work on both as a mechanic in the early 1940's)

The Air france Concorde crash was surely a cover up wasn't it?

probably not.

In order to fly i was told that you need perfect eyesight without corrective lenses is this true?

yes, and the sterwardess wore mini-skirts.

Why do they build all around airports,then complain about noise & safety ?

Yes they did; the big ones, especially the ones that crossed the Pacific, weren't the bulk passenger carriers of today-they were fitted out like mini cruise ships. The passengers paid well for the trip, and expected a certain level of comfort & luxury, since the trip could take days with fuel stops and such.

How long does it take to get a Private Pilot License?

they definately had sleeping berths, and dinning rooms, i am not too sure, Flying boats are the most luxurious, but i don't suppose that they did, because since the planes flew so low, turbulence is very frequent, the meals were usually at the seats so there is less room for the food to move around instead of flying all over the place.

Hydrogen-powered jet planes?

Most likely not, because of all the turbulence and rough landing would make if hard to eat at when flying over seas.

feul consumption of an aircraft is said in terms of lts/hour or miles/litr.?

The 130:
The passenger deck is divided into five sections, including a lounge or recreational room seating twelve passengers, six separate passenger compartments, a specially, finished deluxe compartment, galley and rest rooms and lavatories for men and women. The two decks are interconnected by a Staircase. Complete radio, interphone and signal light system. Soundproofing, controlled heating and ventilation.

The 314 Clipper
The era of the glorious clipper ships (named for the swift square-rigged sailing ships of the 1800's) had arrived. And on February 23, 1939, the grandest embodiment of the flying boats, the Boeing 314, made its inaugural flight from San Francisco to Hong Kong. The California Clipper had plush seating for 74 (sleeping berths for 36), a separate dining room where passengers were served full-course meals, separate men's and women's bathrooms, a deluxe compartment for VIPs, dressing rooms, and a dedicated lounge.

homebuilt aircraft?

possibly, but I doubt it.
