Sorry, mirage.....your point?
We all know about the ValueJet accident. You DO know what the term 'COMAT' is, don't you?
Those poor people dove into the Everglades. You're almost proving a point....the composition of the ground and the soil at Shanksville, that is the
key to understanding the UAL 93 crash scene.
EDIT...now I've seen the whole NG video....it is so annoying when a show uses stock footage, especially of a cockpit scene....and it's wrong. It
was edited quickly, but several times I saw shots of an instrument panel of a THREE-ENGINED airplane, when eveyone knows that the DC-9 has only two
engines.
ALSO, the Attitude Indicator.....not from a DC-9. I happen to know this, because I am type-rated in the airplane.
BUT, nevermind. We all know the reasons for that accident....the O2 generators, improperly packed. When triggered, they get very hot, thus the
tragedy.
I guess the only comparison is to UAL 93....as I've said already, the composition of the ground, at impact point, is the key here.
Comments??
