Re: The Eidelwiess affair…

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...

Re: Railroad Thread

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.

Re: Railroad Thread

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

Superior Argie Bridge Engineering.

Some time ago, a cargo ship tried to destroy an important bridge here , allegedly due to rudder failure (didn't know Boeing made ships) . The bridge was unscathed . I'm sure this had nothing to do with unimportant factors such as mass, speed, angle , etc of the ship and everything to do with our hel...
