I just got back from the doc's. Had to have a serious case of
"Athelete's Toung"
(Foot-in-mouth -- It's amazing how one can still communicate this
way...8D)
I was able to look that up....Fleetbook, Page 3, first column, "Maneuver
thrust"
section, 2nd paragraph....(see I did look it up...:)
The maneuver thrust is 1/2 of the main thrust, but does not use main
thrust to turn
the ship. (Essentially it is free. I suppose one would go slowly nuts
if one had
to keep track of every detail...)
