Excellent Holly, nicely done.

We used to call it W.F.O. back in the OLD days.



Jim

 

okay, who knows the origin of ***** To The Wall?

hints; nothing to do with anatomy and senior pilots should know this

 

Wide open bottle
Who ordered b33r
Why others bother
Wide obsene behind

It satands for Wide Open Throtle as others have said .

 

Very rare event

 

WOT are you going so slow for??? Probably because you didn't know WOT WOT was.

 

 

I'm gonna get in trouble for this one, but:

WOT =

Run FLATOUT until you see GOD, count to THREE, then BRAKE!!!

I just love that T-Shirt!!

 

A term used by pilots. when accelerating quickly, the throttle is pushed all the way to the panel and the throttle lever (ball) actually touches the panel (wall). Hence, ***** to the wall.

Hope this helps....

 

WE HAVE A WINNER

all the control levers in older aircraft had ***** of different shapes so they could be identified by feel. throttles were round

 

I gotta admit, I heard fighter pilots use that term years ago, I forgot most of what they said, so I googled it......

 

well...... I'm sorry, you must be disqualified.

you had won the grand prize of a new ZR1. all you would of had to do is send me a $9,000 money order to my Caymin Island PO box to cover processing fees and the keys would have been yours

better luck next time

 

Dang, and I would have gladly sent you $9k for that ZR1....

 

I freakin' needed this...thanks!
