Thread regarding Gulfstream Aerospace layoffs

Gulfstream Problems

I’ve asked so many people, (peasants, leads, STM) and still nothing. Like it’s not a real problem in today’s technology because no one has built it, but can a G250 take off if the speed matched the speed of a treadmill?

Thank God for Dave Ramsey and my 6 month emergency fund. 2 years ago, I'd have been effed.

An Airmen would know that ballast isn't useless.

Breaking news GAC has sent notice all CBT’s must be completed before severance packages are issued out. You have until the 15th to complete.

And this is why the company has lay offs, to get rid of the useless ballast. :/

Without forward motion (air across the wings) there is no lift, so, no, it won't "take off"

No way! No wind speed no lift!

As an engineer I’d say yes! There would eventually be enough thrust to give the airplane lift! Not much and it would crash but it would take off the treadmill! The wheels have nothing to do with it and that’s where people get it mixed up!
