One person's junk is Lord Buckethead's find!

Okay smarty pants.

Hey that looks cool (although I am guessing it's at least a hybrid if not actually some sort of prototype or gimmick).

[Tim-ANC]

All the rage? ALL THE RAGE ? ! ? !Do you live in a cave? When is the last time you saw anything that resembled civilization?``

Don't get me wrong, Buck! (you don't mind if I call you Buck, now do you Buck??)
OK! A legitimate question. I really wanna know why the plane isn't made out of the same material that the black box is made
out of.

Huh? (I know you get that a lot). The "black boxes", there are two, are painted orange. All the other avionic boxes are black

[Tim-ANC]

I think the plane is made out of the same material as the black box, but it's just that the black box is buried installed within the plane in a location that maximizes it's chance of survival.

Yes Cockpit Voice Recorder and Digital Flight Data Recorder are installed in the back of the airplane. They have battery powered underwater locator beacons on them

[Tim-ANC]

...what? Your caps lock got stuck?



...I thought someone made it clear the other day....NO POSTS ARE TO BE DELETED. NO POSTS ARE DUMB..

Yes, quantity, not quality, (like where BB is going.

[Tim-ANC]

Yes. There are only so many seats at the back of the plane.

Last ones to the scene of the accident

According to the intraWeb, the black boxes are specified as having to withstand some pretty ridiculous G forces. When SwissAir 111 went down a bunch of years ago off the coast of Nova Scotia the impact was estimated as several hundred Gs. They were able to recover the black boxes. I would guess the biggest risk of damage to the black boxes is often everything else around the black boxes that becomes debris and projectiles.

According to this...
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List...ight_recorders
...the recorders periodically don't survive (although in lots of cases they simply aren't found).

I wonder where that stolen 727 ended up?

Nice. There's one somewhat similar to that around my area.

Time to get back off topic.

Yes, built to survive heavy G's, shock, fire, submersion, water depth. But still, nothing we can build in indestructible. And in the the case of the CVR's there is an erase button in the cockpit. Pilots often hit this when they've been talking shirt about the company.

Back to the vodka. Mash is looking awesome. Lazyboy, how long do I ferment it again? Remember, shooting for 100 proof

Blat, he didn't answer his phone. Bet he got into last year's batch

[Tim-ANC]

Okay smarty pants.

Man, almost straight jet with little if no fan bypass. Bet that was mega decibel. Can't see it being more than 10k lbs thrust and a fuel hog. Not so good for a train
