… I've forgotten all the details anyway :-( Pretty simple: Delta 191 hit a horrendous wind shear and crashed, even though the pilots commented that they were probably going to lose airspeed suddenly…and hell-better aeroengineers said the plane could have remained airborne. The industry then recogni...

Two updates: 1. WSJ article on a bacteria that turns CO2 into ethanol. Sorely missing from the article is information on what actually “powers” the bacteria . I have my doubts given that it glosses over that one detail. 2. Towards the end of the article, there is a bunch of talk of the aviation indu...

1. I infer that Dan Juan stole the light bulb? IMHOAHO, he is bat shit certifiably crazy and needs to be banned. 2. I call bullcrap that a sudden density altitude increase caused a loss of altitude. 3. One might cite procedures, that she was more than one dot low, and that maybe 98 feet is adequate ...

Is it sort of a bad idea to slightly nose over in your last 200/100 whatever feet of altitude? (Yes, size matters)

I think the "by the book" answer for airliners is very simple: if you bounce, you go around. Period. Holy [obscure god]. Who is sending out Evan-black-and-white nanoprobes? Have you ever done ANY fence perving? Watched landing YouTubez? Bounces (albethey small) are not_uncommon for airlin...

Any squid involved?

Part 1: I have a genuine question: ARGUABLY, and from the vantage point of a keyboard, should LH-B'747's guys maybe just "salvaged" the bounce instead of going around? You don't necessarily have great airspeed and engine power right then, so why fight getting those things back when you are...

This is an odd one, for sure. I've watched the video several times now in hopes of getting a clearer view not of the aircraft's attitude but of control surface positioning, specifically if the elevators were ever deflected downwards. The video is not very clear but it does NOT appear that elevators...

Indeed.

Evan has not_approved it.

It’s designed for single-engine death traps.

I’m continuing my boycott of Long videos. I did see a genetically-modified squid, hanging from the ceiling. Was it preparing to pounce on people, or was it accessing Chat GPT to inject “correct” information?

1) I don't know why but Village People crossed my mind. 2) Your helmet strap is loose. This thread is titled checklist, procedures, rules for God's sake! It’s called stepping out of the bubble and riding a bike, Evan ;) :lol: Admittedly, he’s using his face diaper. https://youtu.be/CS9OO0S5w2k?si=p...

Priceless, Robert.

That was Robert Hilton.

Thank you, I wasn't sure.

It occurs to me we all have been going at this for a while, long enough to where people are continuing to die off...

Fixed.

Humour appreciated. Unfortunately, we have YouTubers making YouTubes about YouTubers. I gotta say, the gals are cuter than the ugly, dorky guy, and she seems a bit more grounded than TN Flynot_boy. https://youtu.be/zUWvf7v9ed8?si=zkxE7ds2Q6ZB13gB There’s also something very close to all of us pictur...

Frank quit posting in 2011 and lurked an unknown amount through 2019.

As you might imagine, I liked his razz of Evanie more than Berntie.

The biggest ironing is that Berntie cited his credentials and ATLboy seems to be chipping away at his facts.

Thank you for the information. Our original forum owner/moderator, and the one who sort of saved us AD.commies. Just think, he now has THE final report on MH-17 and knows what Bonin was thinking. Did he lurk much, Monchie? Is there an explanation for the saxophone? :( PS: No spreken ze Deutch Y Espa...

Excellent post.
