You’d be disappointed. I’m too busy enjoying the roomy simplicity of the Airbus flightdeck.
On a serious note the Max is too big too fail. They’ll certify it, go through political theater and passenger angst, and then it’ll be in mass use.
It’s kinda a problem having them hold offshore because of the inbound and outbound LAX traffic, and to a far lesser extent LGB, SNA and perhaps business jets off of SMO if it’s still operating turbine traffic.
But you’d like to think someone had considered a way to keep a heavy close by so that it could dump fuel without dropping widget juice on local children.
Does the size of the base of the damn matter if the amount of water it’s holding back is proportionally larger? I dunno. But it would seem that you’d only need to start the failure to let the water behind do the rest.
Actually, they skipped to the damn and then sunk to somewhere near the base. Or that was the design anyway. The skipping was the only way they could devise to snuggle the weapons up close to the concrete as they sank.
Epps’ struggles with 5’10” DB’s makes me think that his ability to out physical DE’s and OLB’s would be pretty limited to non existent. I guess he could marginally get in the way at times.
I don’t know about that. The bouncing dambuster bombs employed by the British were quite a bit short of a nuclear blast, but the incompressibility of water made for giant hammer blows against the concrete.
You implied that it was a set up.
It’s a city with millions of people in it. Go out and about any place that big virtually anywhere else at that time of night and you’ll see people with smart phones out filming all kinds of BS.
I was having a similar discussion with an Air Force Reserve Major who currently flies 130’s as his side hustle. His take was basically that the Herc’s get beat to hell during service, and that they wouldn’t be ideal for the rigors or fire flying.
The converted civilian airliners certainly take their share of wear and tear, but most aren’t doing combat landings into unimproved fields with armored vehicles on board.
It just struck me as interesting that the Lord would drop in to the tent of meeting, and act surprised by the actions of the Israelites before showering them with his wrath. As though an omnipotent being wouldn’t know exactly what they were going to do from the beginning.
Or the fact that Moses would have to head in for consultations on what to do with legal/ethical situations as they arose as though an omnipotent being wouldn’t know what’s coming, and just go ahead and lay out the minutia before it became a problem.
I think Genesis and the Flood is a very fast and loose retelling of “how we got to here” following what was probably a cataclysmic event like a comet strike or something. The story being familiar across continents and different societies kinda points to the s*** hitting the fan and a general global reset taking place where oral tradition was about all that people had left as civilization rebooted.
Honestly, IMO not a real news site. Still rumors IMO.
Two things:
1. I never said it was anything more than rumors.
2. There aren’t a lot of real news sites anymore.
The funny thing is that, besides showing what a pain in the ass it was to atone for sin the Old Testament way, I always thought that Exodus/Leviticus portrayed a God something short of omnipotent.
