    Virginia Tech Hokies vs. No. 19/19 Virginia Cavaliers Postgame Notes Jan. 4, 2020 John Paul Jones Arena | Charlottesville, Va. FINAL SCORE: Virginia Tech 39, No. 19/19 Virginia 65 RECORDS AND NOTABLES ● Virginia Tech falls to 10-4 overall and 1-2 in ACC play. ● Tech is now 1-1 on the road in ACC play, with its lone victory coming over Clemson 67-60 in the season opener on Nov. 5. ● Tech trails Virginia in the all-time series 94-56, with the Cavaliers owning the last three meetings. Tech’s last win was a 61-60 overtime victory in Charlottesville in 2018. ● The last time Tech was held to under 40 points was on Feb. 18, 1967 at East Carolina in a 43-33 loss. ● UP NEXT: The Hokies will continue their road stretch as they travel to Syracuse, New York to take on ​ the Orange on Tuesday, Jan. 7 at 9 p.m. ET at the Carrier Dome. TEAM NOTES ● Virginia Tech used the starting lineup of Wabissa Bede, Tyrece Radford, P.J. Horne, Landers Nolley II, and Nahiem Alleyne. After tying a season high of 49 points off the bench, Tech just mustered seven points versus the Cavaliers. ● KEY FIRST HALF RUN: The Hokies struggled to find offense early due to stifling defense from Virginia. ​ Tech fell behind 26-11 late in the first when redshirt freshman Landers Nolley finished off an old-fashioned three-point play followed by a triple from Nolley to cut into the deficit. Nolley scored 15 of Tech’s 17 points in the first half as Virginia entered halftime leading 30-17.

    Product Support (Do Not Remove From Department) INTRODUCTION TOP FLITE MODELS, INC. is proud to introduce the new Elder 40. This design is a direct result of popular demand after the great little Elder 20 was introduc- ed. Modelers loved the design, still do, but wanted something "larger" and "while you're at it, give it ailerons." So, here it is and does it ever fly nice'. The Elder 40 was designed and sized expressly for .40 engines and this includes the popular .40- .45 and .49 engines. The design turns in great performance with the four-stroke power plants and there is plenty of power margin left over for the aerobatic- minded pilot. However, the real "kick" of this design, like its smaller brother, is the the design with 4-cycle engines is an absolute delight. realistic, slow-speed flights that allow you to actually Give it a try in your Elder 40. Note that the motor mount see the airplane instead of just a blur. we have provided in the kit may not fit some 4-cycle The design lends itself to all kinds of detailing, if you're engines and it may be necessary to visit your local retail so inclined.

  • Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight Author’S Note to Flightlab Students
    Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight Author’s Note to Flightlab Students The collection of documents assembled here, under the general title “Unusual Attitudes and the Aerodynamics of Maneuvering Flight,” covers a lot of ground. That’s because unusual-attitude training is the perfect occasion for aerodynamics training, and in turn depends on aerodynamics training for success. I don’t expect a pilot new to the subject to absorb everything here in one gulp. That’s not necessary; in fact, it would be beyond the call of duty for most—aspiring test pilots aside. But do give the contents a quick initial pass, if only to get the measure of what’s available and how it’s organized. Your flights will be more productive if you know where to go in the texts for additional background. Before we fly together, I suggest that you read the section called “Axes and Derivatives.” This will introduce you to the concept of the velocity vector and to the basic aircraft response modes. If you pick up a head of steam, go on to read “Two-Dimensional Aerodynamics.” This is mostly about how pressure patterns form over the surface of a wing during the generation of lift, and begins to suggest how changes in those patterns, visible to us through our wing tufts, affect control. If you catch any typos, or statements that you think are either unclear or simply preposterous, please let me know. Thanks.
