Hell to the no it can't. Pressure is *regulated*. Also, I haven't seen a carburated vehicle sold since the '90s. That little needle valve attached to the float will regulate flow more than it will regulate pressure.

Weapons and ammunition is heavy and most helicopters have a stores jettison avaialble if they're low on power. The Apache helicopter as an example has two Turbines to carry everything. If you're down to one engine and need to enter a hover for any reason you may need to drop stores. If you're on the ground with one engine and a rolling liftoff is not available you won't get off the ground unless you jettison some or all your ammo. Missiles, rockets, etc.

The short answer is yes, as you fire, you will reduce your collective as needed. Ammo is heavy.

Lets talk about teachers that walk in, give you pages to complete and walk out for the rest of the class. Or the ones that are only capable of quoting what's written in the book and can't / won't help explain the material.

I could go on but those are my top two.

Don't feel bad about your grades in America. The schools here are pretty much just state subsidized day care.

I would ask that both of yo be placed in a private school where there would be greater interaction with staff where the feedback loop to your parents could be augmented.

You wouldn't have to do anything more.
