Maybe if I strategically cut my pants to make my worst bike-related scars visible I could stop being a 50-year-old virgin?

Do they know that trains have had disc brakes for about half a century? Fixed . From Wikipedia : Successful application began on railroad streamliner passenger trains, airplanes, and tanks before and during World War II. In the US, the Budd Company introduced disc brakes on the General Pershing Zep...

...does it have infinite torque at 0 RPM?

Do you know the case I am talking about?

In case he doesn't.

An engine cowling?

Being a 757 it was probably a slat.

Truth is that we have no clue what caused the nose-down input. Micro-meteorite shower pushing the aeroplanie down ? ...let's wait for the final report. CONCUR .

We were told that swept-wing airliners tended to develop significant sink rates if one lowers the nose much... Ban ALL swept wings . ...and that maybe the folks who engineered the plane and the procedures MIGHT know a thing or two. Of course they do ! Just look at them using the finest composite ma...

We only come here (or go there ) to scold pilots and Boeing employees for how much they suck at their respective works and tell them how to suck a little less , so hopefully they don't did died us a fiery did diedness. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTWKbfoikeg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKlc...

If only we could ask a smaller, but still HALed 'Bus driver for his knowledge and opinion!

”A mechanical issue” caused a WN to return to Denver on or about April 7, 2024:

Aren't loose, dislodging, falling-off and/or exploding parts usual occurrence for both that aerolinie and that aeroplanie family?

This showed up on my FB feed today. Either Mark Zuckerberg is a lurker, or he monitors my activity on www.internet.com.

Or how about... real afterburners?

Why fake? Didn’t your spin-out link also include a fire-belching exhaust stack?

Real afterburners in dinosaur/plant-juice-less electric motors usually result in reduced lifespan.

3) Diesel engines make more noise, this is the USA, and we think louder is always better.

We could install fake afterburners on electric locomotivies and make them cross a wall of fire and explosions every couple kilocorgis to make them more American.

I acknowledge a lot of electrical light-urban rail systems, but I don’t see anything happening with freight.

Europe has freight trainies with electric locomotivies.

"An open door is not an emergency".

Boeing would love that.

Ban ALL braking.

This was cool.
