you do know that a plane with full fuel will actually slow down faster?   :-X


Strange :/ I would have thought the momentum of the plane would be increased if there is more weight behind it...

I suppose the only feasible explaination I could come up with, is that there would be more pressure on the tyres, and therefore it would create more friction...maybe, maybe not ::)
