If he'd sprinted off you might have lost 5-1

Nice phlegm unity from Rooney and fellaini there at the end

I never fancy using the supporters coach so gave PVR a miss today, I do like my away trips to welling though. Should be a win with their awful recent record but we've started to drop off the pace and they are due a win over us. 9 from 9 is possible and would be encouraging for the new year

Keep it tight at the back and you might be able to pick up a 'handy' result

And totally against the respect shown to him at the AON training ground

If you'd asked me that in 2009 and I had any idea what a Lamberts conformal conic chart is I might have a chance :-D

Mostly tongue in cheek here :blush: Merry Christmas Wilson

Not at all, I got to talk about navigation and great circle sailing. Not done that for a long time

It's opposed by buoyancy

Your mum

I've always thought that about Leewilson to be fair

The world is quite large...this is why experiments over 6 miles on a river are laughable, and why the horizon looks flat.

...yes? Haha all I know is the calculations become noticeably different..

6 miles? Well that's not a large enough distance to experiment with, no wonder they thought it was flat. Again, the earth can be considered as flat for distance calculations up to 600 nautical miles.

Not if you consider that any difference is negligible under 600 NM, it would only need the odd correction in long haul flights

You like the side with most possession to win the game apart from when you don't like the side with most possession to win the game. Consider yourself a high functioning imbecile.

What, exactly the same height? Why would they have to do that? We have a couple of pilots on here I'm sure they can answer that

It's an oblate spheroid. If you're planning a sea trip, the curvature of the earth is more or less irrelevant when travelling a distance of 600 nautical miles or less (using plane or mercator sailing). Any calculations over this distance would indeed have to take into account this curvature...

I used to get Christmas cards from my cat :blush: :sad:

Well in that case it's probably Spireite with a second account talking to himself...maybe there never was a pagnell?
