Robert I really liked yor post. Especiallly the wing analogy of the Plenum, 
which of course may be what I call the aether.  
Neville, of course the aether is frictionless in the mechanical sense. More to 
you later, as I have worked out without NASA's info 
your logical conclusions re the easterly launch of appollo, annd accept that in 
the Geocentric sense, using their newtonian mechanics of motion, there is a 
problem. This is why I posed the alternative effects of the plenum (aether) 
simply because I do believe we went there. 

Now back to putting a spoke in Robers argument for the geostat Satellite.  No 
offence meant Robert. , but we must look for the objections before they think 
of them. and work out the solutions.  

Objection #1. 

Given the HC expectations and theory concerning a satellite at the orbital 
height of 22,240 miles, being the correct position without any reference to a 
plenum, would not their case gain support against the existence of any effect 
of a plenum  should a satellite be launched from the exact geographical pole, 
to the same height, and it proscribed a similar 24 hour period. 

Reason: The plenum would have no relative motion to the orbiter as it moved in 
this vertical period. 

Food for thought here. This launch would impart no rotational force to the 
orbit, except if the earth did rotate it would receive a twisting motion upon 
itself that would result in a twist period of 24 hours. Other than that , this 
orbit would fe fixed and not rotate with the earth . If the earth was 
stationary, this orbit would remain covering the same latitude. If the earth 
rotated, the path would appear diagonal to the vertex. 

Using a stationary earth , then what effect would the plenum have. say at the 
equator  and the poles. At the equator more lift ? At the poles no effect. 
(presuming our plenum is spherical rotating only in the equatorial plane.) 
Using your analogy, the "wing windspeed "would be zero at the poles and max at 
the equator.

  Gary,

  Notice that Mr. Hoge had the last word, which always is an advantage in a
  debate.

  Here's my comments regarding a possible GC model that explains the geostat
  sat.

  Pax Christi,

  How the existence of geostationary satellites proves that the earth rotates
  by Gary Hoge

  GH: How did the geostat became stationary? they [the launch team] placed
  their satellites into an orbit at which they circle the earth once every
  day, believing that this would result in a geosynchronous orbit.
  .. if they somehow went from 6,856 mph to 0 mph (without anybody noticing),
  what stopped them?"
  RB: Clarification: 6856 mph is with respect to Earth's center, the center of
  rotation.

  GH: And my assertion is that a geosynchronous satellite must move at about
  6,800 mph whether the earth rotates or not. That's simply the speed it has
  to maintain in order to maintain its orbital altitude of 22,240 miles. Any
  slower and it would fall into a lower orbit. Any faster and it would rise to
  a higher orbit.A satellite orbiting a celestial body follows a very simple
  equation of orbital motion, and that equation is independent of the
  rotational velocity (if any) of the celestial body itself. Put simply, a
  satellite in orbit around the earth doesn't care whether the earth is
  rotating beneath it or not. It moves at a velocity proportionate to its
  distance from the earth..A satellite will move around the earth according to
  the equation v = SQRT (GM / r), where v is the velocity of the satellite, G
  is the universal gravitational constant, M is the mass of the earth, and r
  is the distance of the satellite from the center of the earth.
  RB: Agreed

  GH: in order for the Telstar satellite to maintain an orbital distance from
  the earth of 22,240 miles, it must travel at a velocity of 6,879 mph. That's
  true whether the earth is rotating or not. The fact that such satellites
  appear not to move relative to the surface of the earth simply proves that
  the earth is rotating.
  RB :  Invalid logic here. The simplified argument is:
  If the satellite appears not to move with respect to to surface, the earth
  is rotating at the same speed as the geostat.
  But the satellite appears not to move wrt to surface
  Thus the earth is rotating
  ........Invalid conclusion!
  The first premise is 'the satellite appears not to move wrt to surface', so
  a valid conclusion is 'the earth is rotating at the same speed as the
  satellite', not the truncated version, 'the earth is rotating.'..... period?
  With the corrected logic the valid conclusion holds for any speed. This
  includes the GC case, if the speed of the satellite is zero.
  Both HC and GC views are possible, as expected for relative motion.

  GH: ..a satellite has to keep moving in its orbit or it will fall (in fact,
  an orbit is nothing but a free-fall toward a planet whose surface is always
  curving out of the way), and so in order to maintain that geosynchronous
  satellites don't actually orbit the earth at all, but just levitate up there
  in space, you assert that as luck would have it there just happens to be a
  mysterious gravitational force at 22,240 miles from the earth that just
  happens to precisely balance the gravitational attraction of the earth at
  that altitude.
  RB:  The force is neither mysterious nor gravitational. It is the well-known
  centrifugal inertial force exhibited whenever a body and the plenum are in
  relative rotation with respect to each other.
  See washing machine model  at
  http://users.rcn.com/robert.bennett/GeocentrismRJBv1.doc
  The plenum's inertial outward force increases with distance from Earth,
  while gravity decreases. At 22,240 miles from the Earth, the inward force of
  gravity balances the outward force of rotation. The motion of the plenum
  vortex around the Earth causes a upward radial force away from the Earth.
  A crude model of this would be the lift created on an airplane wing, when
  air moves across the wing airfoil. Relative to the local plenum the
  satellite is moving at 6,879 mph.
  There is no resort to illogical action at a distance here, as both forces,
  gravity and centrifugal, are CONTACT effects of the satellite with the local
  plenum.

  GH: ... The fact that it [the satellite] does keep up with the earth's
  rotation at that altitude [22,240 miles ] merely proves that the earth is
  rotating, and it confirms that the scientists who chose an orbital altitude
  that would give their satellite an orbital period of 24 hours knew what they
  were doing.
  RB: The first half repeats the prior truncated illogic; the second assumes
  that the HC view of the relative motion is the only correct view - which
  begs the question and violates relativity .of rotation.
  Knowing the properties of the plenum, geocentric engineers would also
  successfully insert the geostat into its proper orbit.

  GH: You can verify Telstar's velocity yourself simply by applying the
  elementary laws of orbital mechanics to the known parameters of the
  satellite's orbit (i.e., its distance from the earth).
  RB:  There's no denial that an HC view of a geostat is valid;  what's denied
  is that a GC view is not valid.

  GH: . let's pretend there's no sun and no stars or planets. Let's pretend
  there's just the earth sitting motionless in space with a satellite orbiting
  it.
  RB: OK, as long as there's a plenum.
  GH: At a given altitude, the satellite must go around the earth at a given
  speed.
  RB: .relative to the local plenum.
  GH:  It doesn't matter whether the earth itself is rotating or not. However,
  if we put a satellite into an equatorial orbit, and if we give it an orbital
  period of 24 hours, and if it maintains a fixed position relative to the
  surface of the earth, we have our proof that the earth rotates.
  RB: ... repeats the prior illogic
  GH: But either way, if you want to keep a satellite at an orbital altitude
  of 22,240 miles above the earth, it must make a complete circle around the
  earth's axis every 24 hours, whether the earth itself makes such a circle or
  not.
  RB:  Proof of the above ??  A helicopter maintains its position above the
  ground, as the geostat does. Does it make a difference whether the Earth is
  rotating beneath it or not?

  GH: The only force acting on a satellite in orbit is the force of the earth'
  s gravity.
  RB: correction: forces of the plenum's gravity and the universal centrifugal
  force.

  GH: Both "centrifugal force" and "coriolis force" are fictitious forces that
  are the by-product of measuring coordinates with respect to a rotating
  coordinate system.
  RB:  Both are real forces that reflect aspects of the plenum's rotational
  effect on bodies immersed in it (which is everything).

  GH:  a satellite in orbit encounters almost no resistance to its motion, not
  from "centrifugal effects," not from "coriolis effects
  RB: The centrifugal forces are radial, not tangential. They have no effect
  on its forward motion.
  There are no coriolis forces if the satellite's motion is parallel to the
  plenum vortex streamlines.

  GH: Inertia and centripetal acceleration are what keep a satellite in orbit,
  not "centrifugal force."
  RB:  A geocentric view is that inertia is motion relative to the surrounding
  plenum

  GH: But seriously, I don't see why you have a problem with the idea of
  relative motion. We use such ideas all the time. For example, if you want to
  design an airplane you don't have to test your wing by moving it through
  still air at a hundred miles per hour. Instead, you can treat the airplane
  as fixed and use a wind tunnel. The result is the same either way. The wing
  will fly if air goes over it at a certain relative speed, and it doesn't
  matter whether that's caused by the motion of the airplane or the motion of
  the air itself.
  RB: Exactly. Now replace the air with the plenum, the wind with the plenum
  motion and the plane with the satellite.  This is a GC model of satellite
  motion.

  GH: Planets and satellites move the way they do because of their own inertia
  and because of the force of gravity acting upon them. It's really not that
  complicated.
  RB:  Substitute the plenum forces for inertia and gravity
