I'd like to see what appends when a nuclear implant or a electric traditional one explodes.
What's the meaning of this video???

This is the same thing that caused Howard Hughes plane to crash. The mechanism that changes prop pitch failed. The pitch can normally be controlled so that even in high wind the assembly doesn't rotate at all if desired. You have heard the expression 'feather the prop'. In this case, it apparently wasn't working. Electrical output is controlled by another mechanism, which is using magnet field control, it is not linear, so electrical output is flat once an optimum speed is reached.

That's expensive? Do you see what that is? It's not super-advanced machinery, they were able to do things like that in 1950 and maybe i think they could do it in 1930 or even in the late 1800'... expensive lol

Things go wrong with almost every technology - lots of power in a high wind, so any component failure can do them in - but I'd rather take my chances with mills vs. exploding power plants! Part of the testing and learning curve.. good thing they're sited away from homes!
