Re: More situational ethics at Airbus.
It should have been found that there was shared blame.... wait a minute, there was, Continental, and John Taylor.... but, the fact that the Concorde is still parked leads one to suspect there is a serious design flaw and blame should be shared by more. Still? It did come back into commercial servic...

Re: Boeing E-3A simulator
500 lines of code isn't really very much. Just the code for talking to a real battery in a laptop is more than that. 5000 is probably more reasonable for modeling a battery, although it depends heavily on what generic facilities the battery code can make use of. I'd guess the whole simulator is pro...

Re: Qantas A380 emergency landing in SIN
And now a QANTAS 747 SIN-SYD turns around with an Engine failure.
If any of the PAX were fugees from the A380, I would advise staying well away from them on future flights!

Re: Slam Dunk Descent Rates
[There's a rule of thumb- for a gentle level off, start at 10% of your vertical speed in fpm. I don't know if it holds up at 6000 fpm descent rates, but if you start leveling at 2000, you will be done at 1300 and the customers would only feel several seconds of a slowing elevator. Doesn't every lev...
