  1. Congresses intent. That leaves alot of wiggle room, IMO, especially with a debt-o-crat congress. Any comments? We are all engines of karma
  2. Tremendous discussion. Thanks for posting it Darius. We are all engines of karma
  3. If I understood what the pilot was saying, at the TCZ there's alot of warm water that causes the icing zone to be higher than usual. Hopefully, I'll see him before he heads out of country, and replay the chat with what I've learned here. Thanks. We are all engines of karma
  4. So, the guys flying the plane didn't turn around in time. Is that a reasonable statement? We are all engines of karma
  5. What, the pound is? We are all engines of karma
  6. Nice feedback. I'm learning something here. I'm not certain what the acronyms mean, but here goes: How long does APU power last? What if the RAT was iced, and didn't do anything? Was this because of severe icing conditions? We are all engines of karma
  7. Just spent some time at my local pub talking to an Airbus Captain. Here's his take on the Air France flight: * The crew had just spent several days in Rio. * Multiple daily flights have stopped. * Crews are staying over. * The captain took his break to sleep prior to the TCZ. * That left two young first officers on the deck. * Those two young first officers had a good time in Rio. * They were bullshitting with each other * They were not staying on top of things. * Going 8 miles a minute. * They suddenly found themselves in a massive thunder storm. * The icing zone in the TCZ can extend over 30K. * Due to the warm air coming off the ocean. * They hit that, because they didn't turn around in time. * The engines started dying due to massive icing. * The electrical systems starting going out. * Because the engines weren't turning. * They lost cabin pressure. * Because the engines weren't turning. * The rudder protection system kicked out. * Violent, violent airflows going on. * They over stressed the tail fin, and it came off. * The plane came apart.

  10. Before 3 months (maybe less) gestation, it should be an option. After that, it should really not be widely available. This assumes the woman realizes she has missed more than one period. We are all engines of karma

  17. Yep. Based upon what he's done to secured debtors of the auto companies, he has shown a complete disregard for precedent. He knows how to live your life. And he's hell bent on proving it. We are all engines of karma
