Title: To Tim Wescott
Post by: frank mccune on November 13, 2014, 06:50:21 AM

      Hi Tim:

      Since I do not know how to make a reply to your post, I will place it here.

      Thanks for your reply.  I had a difficult time wrapping my head around the  fact that an one pound airplane at 132 fps. would have much more power/momentum that modern magnum rifle cartridges.  I guess that I would have no trouble killing an elephant with a combat plane! Lol

      Often times the facts are telling!

                                                                        Stay well my friend,

                                                                        Frank

Well, someone called me up to point out I may have made a mistake in my math -- more in the original thread.
