Have you ever been to Bolikhamxay in Laos and eaten the local delicacy, Bird's Cock Soup, at a Baci Ceremony?
If you have I am sure I ate it before you.
See you in 2 minutes.

Wrong, the answer is 20.1 mph or 9 meters per second.tonytonytony wrote: ↑Fri Jul 05, 2019 3:43 pm24 mph or about 11 meters a second.

I think you will find the slower speed was recorded when taking in only 4 kinematic ratios in winged flight where as my time takes in 6. By averaging all 6 values, its estimate that an average European Swallow flies at cruising speed with a frequency of roughly 15 beats per second and an amplitude of roughly 22 cm.kinard wrote: ↑Fri Jul 05, 2019 4:04 pmWrong, the answer is 20.1 mph or 9 meters per second.tonytonytony wrote: ↑Fri Jul 05, 2019 3:43 pm24 mph or about 11 meters a second.

You are not a very good expert.
The Strouhal Number in Cruising Flight showed how simplified flight waveforms that graph amplitude versus wavelength can be useful for visualizing the Strouhal ratio (fA/U), a dimensionless parameter that tends to fall in the range of 0.2–0.4 during efficient cruising flight.
If we settle on an intermediate Strouhal value of 0.3 we can estimate the airspeed of the European Swallow to be roughly 11 meters per second (15 beats per second * 0.73 meters per beat).
Get your facts right son.
Just on my first Tiger.
See you soon.
