Now in FE does the speed of light remain constant?
Does the formula E=mc^2  hold true.

of course
Ah most excellent so the earth has been accelerating at a constant 9.8 m/ss for a number of years.
So what speed are we currently accelerating from and to?

In the UA model, how do you account for falling objects falling at different speeds based on mass and drag?  It seems to me that if the ground was racing up to meet them mass/drag would be irrelevant.

The same reason as described in RET/Gravity.  why wouldnt air/drag affect an object?  both the air, ground and object all have an initial velocity moving upward.  so of course the object coming back down would see the same effects.  if you did the same test in a vacuum then yes, the results will be same, which is obvious in either RET or UA

lets argue about UA as described by FET, not someone's personal opinion about what they think UA describes.
Yes please that would be perfect a few things first as to do this properly we need to agree on certain things OK
I will agree for sake of argument the the earth plane is accelerating at a constant rate of change of 9.81 m/ss.

Now in FE does the speed of light remain constant?

So bringing this back to the original title. And how I got interested in the topic was to further understand the current understanding of gravity in a flat earth.
I’ve been told it’s due to UA. Ok that’s good. I’ve been told that there is this notional CG that explains the tides. I made a bit of a light hearted suggestion that what happens when we stop accelerating. I was told about Special relativity and good old Eisenstein and I needed to understand this. He was the one that said a rightly so that acceleration and gravity are indistinguishable to the observer within the bounds of the observers reality.
However the problem comes with the oft quote E= mc^2.
The way you need to understand this is that mass increases the faster you get. Now at slow speeds of which we are always working at it makes little difference to our ways of calculating such things as trajectory of canon balls etc. We can use Newton for that.
However it does when you start looking at the mass of the earth and the UA theory. The closer any object gets to the speed of light the greater it’s mass becomes until such a point that it has infinite mass and therefore requires an infinite amount of energy to accelerate any further.
I believe this is the point the OP some while ago was trying to make and something that I was trying to resolve.

The accurate clock link given had nothing really to do with this other than to confirm the theory of general relativity which also stated that gravity has an affect on time.

You see I really do understand the general theory of relativity and how UA couldn’t possibly work. Well not in this universe. As currently we are now happy to accept that there is a high probability that there are an infinite amount of universes which we will never get too and these in all probability will have different laws of physics and may well support a working model that allows for a flat earth system.

Didn’t skim read article. Read it and understand that time will alter ever so slightly with a change in altitude due to the variation of the gravitational effect. We know that time and gravity are indeed linked the only constant in the universe is the speed of light. 
The proof of local time was very welll described in one of Stephen Hawkings lectures that I read. I can put it here if you like it’s simple enough.
All I asked is how this fits in with a genuine interest in the UA model of the universe I seek an understanding of the thought process and the interaction between UA and CG
So I take mild offence at the accusations of snide comments.
If you have nothing constructive to say say nothing at all is what my good old(now dead) dad used to say.
Pete literally pointed out how that had already been pointed out in this thread. Don't act like you care about an answer when you would rather post to just make a snide comment rather than skim-read a single thread.

Started reading your works on DE. That’s a great start and a hell of a lot of work. It’s going to take some time to get through it you seem to have a great way of explaining some of the details that are missing with the standard FE model. How’s this being received?

Going to have to take a big more time to get the best out of it!

Erm not quite understanding this we perceive the acceleration while on Earth so is the Earth actually accelerating or not?
Depends on the observer/frame of reference. Special Relativity is not always intuitive.
Oh OK could you help me get a better understanding of your understanding of general relativity I have my own preconceived ideas that may of course be completely wrong!
So far I have that the speed of light is constant. 180000 miles per second give or take.
If I fire a beam of light while traveling on a train at say 0.5 times the speed of light the distance traveled in my frame of reference would be 180000 miles per second however an observer outside of the train cannot see light traveling at 270000 miles per second so therefore the time it takes for the light to travel for the observer must be different.
Is this correct?

Sorry had to modify this as I forgot of course the light traveling a fixed distance duh!

And what happens when like my car we run out of horse power? And we reach our final speed? Really concerned about that.
You cannot logically consider this situation from a classical mechanics point of view. You have to account for Special Relativity and the fact that we perceive an acceleration of 9.81ms^-2 while on the Earth or immediately above it.
the value varies. See http://www.npl.co.uk/news/transportable-optical-clock-used-to-measure-gravitation-for-the-first-time
Wow cool article.
Really interesting that you can use a very very accurate clock to measure the difference in gravity resolving with a change in height.
Erm how does this fit in with UA I thought the point was that the whole of our Flat Earth was perceived to be accelerating uniformly at 9.81 m/ss if there is a change with altitude how does this even work!

When I’m in a lift I perceive a local change in gravity during acceleration but then return to “normal “ gravity when speed is constant.
It’s just that the details say that we have gravity due to the acceleration of the Earth not a perceived acceleration. I’m not quite sure I grasp how a perceived acceleration can give us gravity.

Hi Pete sorry for jumping in on this discussion.
I've had a read of the FAQ and am struggling to understand UA and CG. Is there some kind of unification of these two theories or are they two separate things?
The way it seems to me is that we stick on this disk as we are accelerating at a constant velocity of 9.81 ms2 which gives us 1g. the rest of the universe is doing what at this time? I'm guessing accelerating with us. CG is the other kind of gravity that holds the rest of the universe together?
That's pretty much it. Generally speaking, everything in the Flat Earth Model is affected by gravitation, much like it would in the round Earth model. The main difference is that it's a relatively weak force. While the brunt of the gravity we perceive comes from UA, precise measurements will reveal slight variances which are currently understood to be caused mainly by CG.

CG from what I can read, isn't really defined.
Spherical, you are essentially taking an issue with the fact that the Flat Earth Theory is a work in progress, and that there are still many unknowns. This, of course, is only normal in the pursuit of truth. We don't have all the answers, but an incomplete answer is vastly preferable to an incorrect one.
Nope no issues here at all just seeking to further understand UA! So we get out weight from a constant acceleration got that bit and yup it works really well.
So we accelerate at 9.81 m/ss? This fits in nicely with everything yay science!

How long have we been accelerating? And what happens when like my car we run out of horse power? And we reach our final speed? Really concerned about that.

Oh is spherical some kind of thing I’m kind of flatnostic to be honest I kind of like the concept as it fits with what I can see with my own eyes but do have a few reservations when it comes to the physics of flat.

Now what about the question of "Universal Acceleration versus Newton's Law of gravitation?"

what specifically are you asking? 

you have to remember that all laws/math that you are using to try and prove a round earth were all developed based on the same earth that we are claiming to be flat.  a lot of the math would be the same, but the fact the math was done based on an assumed "round" earth is where some errors can occur.
Hi I hope you can help as you seem to be well versed in FE gravity. I’m new to this whole thing and studied Newtonian physics for a while for working out trajectories and various other things.
Newton came up with his theory’s to explain the movement of the observable planets in a simple way that could be tested by experimenting and observations. It all works rather well in a local environment i.e short range.
Eisenstein and his theory of relativity and later Stephen Hawkings works on a unified theory of gravity and the distortion of space time now works for the larger part of the universe we still have issues with quantum gravity but hey ho! At least we can work understand the workings of the bigger picture.
Now I studied this stuff and would like to study the FE models of UA and CG could you either point me to some stuff to read up on or explain it in a way I can make some kind of sense out of it all.
I’ve tried to follow this thread but to be honest there seems to be a whole lot of missing information.
Cheers.

Is there anything in FE to account for this difference when using any FE model?
Again, CG. The correlation between latitude and measured discrepancies in gravity does not necessarily imply a causal relationship.

The force of Gravity would change due to distance and due to other massive objects, while UA would always stay the same.
UA alone, perhaps, but the changes in perceived gravity (not to be confused with gravitation) are down to Celestial Gravitation, and not UA.
Hi folks new here and struggling to get a handle on this UA thing.
I’ve just read the FAQ and well it’s short and to the point which I like.
Gravity as described by Newton is now not a universally accepted model it kind of works for small scale maths but not on a scale of universal proportions.
Eisenstein and his theory of general relativity is all well and good and what we actually live in is a distortion in space time. It took a long time to get my head around gravitation lenses!
How does UA predictions stand up with reguards the bending of light due to mass and black holes?
Genuinely interested as I’ve just finished Stephen Hawkings’s books.
