  • Anyone noticed theres no 3:14?

  • WTH? STABILIZER BULLSHIT? HOW THE HELL IS BULLSHIT!

  • ugh 1:43

  • @JAPToxicity Wow - never heard of that phenomenon. Sounds then, like you wouldn't want to fly very high then given those risks. It also concerns me that with Fly-By-Wire the computer flies the plane, essentially. What happens if the computer freezes up or otherwise malfunctions? Those joysticks would be useless in terms of the flight control surfaces where as at least with a hydraulic failure you can still kind of control the plane. Since you did so well with these accidents >

  • @psyjpg too much speed and flips on its back....kinda like an upside down 180....and then broke up from stress....

  • @psyjpg stall and even, as weird as it seems, the slightest increase in speed can cause a high speed stall or a phenomenon known as "mach tuck" to happen....for example at say 5,000 ft your envelope might be 140 knts stall and 600 knts high speed stall.....but at 36,000 ft it might be 420 knts stall and 450 knts high speed stall....and thats what they believed happen....they either had a regular stall and broke up, or the leading belief is mach tuck, where the aircraft actually noses over from

  • @psyjpg reference as to their altitude or airspeed. In a cessna 152 going 100 knots on a clear day that would mean absolutely jack, lol, but these guys were in a high performance commercial airplane at night in turbulent weather.....and the problem is that they wouldnt know if they were losing/gaining airspeed or desending or climbing...and the higher you go, the smaller the "envelope", or performance limitations margin of errors acceptable get....the slightest decrease in speed can cause you to
