Linus is being an asshole. He may be right, but he's still being an asshole. Don't confuse the two.

I think you meant charts, not maps. There's a difference.

>> The power curves were incredible and the engines left the Saturn V in the dust

Not really. The Saturn V was the most powerful engine ever built. It consisted of five F-1 rocket engines, each of which is more powerful than all three SSMEs(Space Shuttle Main Engines).

That's most surprising.

You question why the computers would be programmed to prevent a stall in a diving aircraft. Obviously you have only a superficial knowledge of aerodynamics. Stalls occur when the wing exceeds its critical angle of attack, this can happen in a climb, a dive, a turn or straight and level flight.
