I need a "forehead rubbing" icon or a "face slap" icon, cause my head hurts and I feel stupid.

I might need to remove the air combat and fighter maneuver stuff from United We Soar's next chapter, save it for another chapter, and give my brain a break. It's also past 2,000 words. While I probably don't need to research so hard on something that's probably too complex for me to fathom unless I'm in the military, I am determined to find out how much I can actually get.

The rest of the chapters contains combat. Dogfighting can repetitive and can end easily. I do know that the ailerons and elevators are used a lot.

Expect a new chapter of UWS soon.

Here are some maneuver and basic forces terms (some self-explanatory):
LIFT VECTOR
LIFT
FORCE
DRAG
GRAVITY
STALL
Immelman
Flat Turn

Note: Moving through centrifugal force causes you to pull Gs.

Word OF THE DAY
Today's word is "Chagrin"

1.) Feeling of vexation, marked by disappointment or humiliation.

2.) To vex by disappointment or humiliation (for example, having your work rejected after working really hard on it)

Etmology:
There are various ideas as to what makes the word but I think this explanation helps: In French, the word "became by metaphor the expression for gnawing trouble."

HISTORY OF THE DAY
On July 12 1862, The Medal of Honor (image above) was established.

In Iraq, Somebody was recently awarded the MOH for tossing a grenade away from allies. He lost his right hand.

This is from the Code of Federal Regulations, title 32 National Defense, chapter 5 (for the U.S Army):

The Medal of Honor, established by Joint Resolution of
Congress, 12 July 1862 (amended by Act of 9 July 1918 and Act of 25 July
1963) is awarded in the name of Congress to a person who, while a member
of the Army, distinguished himself conspicuously by gallantry and
intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty
while engaged in an action against an enemy of the United States; while
engaged in military operations involving conflict with an opposing
foreign force; or while serving with friendly foreign forces engaged in
an armed conflict against an opposing armed force in which the United
States is not a belligerent party (figure 1).

The deed performed must have been one of personal bravery or self-sacrifice so conspicuous as to clearly distinguish the individual above his comrades and must have
involved risk of life.
