Thanks for this educative post op. I just had to go read on the German wings 2015 and more about the Malaysian airline MH370. The pilot that crashed the German wings (Andreas Lubitz) was suffering from depression and it was a contemplated suicide that he took days to plan. Thanks a lot op.
ur welcome shuga

Very informative........thanks op.........in other news why did he AIB of the Dana crash in Oshodi tell us that the flight recorder was burnt beyond recognition........just wondering......

maybe the black box was 'ABA' made. smiley

was Concorde actually designed as a military jet? Or do you say so because of its speed of mach 2

Yeah. Speed. Excessive streamlined body.
Different playbook was used in training the pilots. Training share close similarities to military. E.g must accumulate enough supersonic flight time or very good at flying 747.

Now I know.

Thanks.


But they should rather invent something useful that will prevent the plane from crashing. To me it is useless when lives are already lost.
No it's not. Every plane crash reduces the risk of another and this happens when a thorough investigation is carried out.

I read that he did that because of his lover. He eloped with her.


It's kinda crazy when a pilot just shuts the cockpit door and wouldn't allow any one enter, even his co-pilot or engineer crew members.

Have you read about the MH 17, that was passing the Ukraine air space?

War was going one between two cities there and the MH17 was passing their airspace, it was immediately shut down by the use of missile ( the missile has a kinda rader for proximity; shoot down any closest object you can find in air).



Try to read about Pan am flight 1736 and KLM flight 4805. March 27,1997.

You will learn about air port, the control tower, ground radar, clearance, radios,taxi way, run way, apron,exist....


Just this past 30 mins I just learned somethings, like how aeroplane fly, parts of a plane wings, how air lifts it up, gravity, plane engines, the newton law application for turning,landing and thrust.


The OP just inspired me today, still learning.


I am about to read about the German wing

Did they show us the burnt black box? No. My assumption is someone is covering up something
The black box is really strong but it's not indestructible. It can sometimes be damaged.

booking back seat still won't guarantee your survival grin

Emmm at least it will increase my survival rate than other passengers cos when plane crash i believe i would be the First BoneBeing to be rescue B4 others since am closest to the BLACK BOX ,and remember the Black Boxs are placed in planes where the acident have less impact grin

Toilet dey back too, no forget. Most people rather sit next to the exit door especially the mid section exit door.

Most times on half filled flights, the rear seats are empty so you can help yourself.

Jerrychimaijem:
What if the same materials used in the construction of the black box is also used to construct the aircraft itself?


Then the law of motion changes, everything changes. The weigh will be too much, and that means more speed is needed to lift the plane up as motion occurs ( a better escape velocity) + large quantity of fuel will be consumed + risk of attaining an altitude.


Remember, as the plane is moving fast before take off, the speed must be very high to produce a lift force. The more the air hitting the slat the more the lift.


Newton law of motion comes: If the air is deflecting down,it pushes the object up( as you can see in the pic below) and if the air is deflecting up, it pushes the object down(as you can see in the third pic below).

A balance would be hard to attain if that black box protective metal is used.

okay thanks

Plane accidents kinda very bad and horrific.

may 25, 2002 a chine air flight divided into several parts as a result of poor metal and maintenance.


Let parachutes be allocated on a plane and in case of emergency, people should use it. Train passengers if necessary before flight.

Yeah.... I read about MH 17 too. It was shot down in Ukraine air space four months after the disappearance of airline MH370 killing all 298 occupants on board. It's the deadliest airline shoot down incident till date. I'll read about the others... Thanks for recommending. �

TechCapon is good..no doubt

But articles from Autojosh, Explorer and BiafranBushBoy are outstanding.

Explorer is mentioned more that 200times a day by different people on this forum because of his great work, but unfortunately he doesn't got to see the massive and majority of the mentions because when mentioning him people tend to call him explorer instead of explorers, from my own observation, i wish the guy could remove the s from his name Explorers and change it to explorer, it would have been great

it records voice and sound in the cockpit in the last 2 hours. After which it will keep erasing and recording. This means anytime you open it, you'll find sound recorded in the last 2 hours before the plane crashed
confirm!

This is very educative and I've learnt a lot that I didn't know before. Thanks.

I often wonder though. Why don't they just make planes out of the stuff used in making the "black box"?

No body should mind me o. It's a rhetorical question.
Re: Everything You Should Know About The “black Box” Of An Airplane by Gemc3(f): 9:50am On Mar 30, 2019
MrBONE2:
Thanks TechCapon grin

Your gist have really help,since you said that Black Box is placed toward tail end of the plane,It would be more adversable for We BoneBeing to only Book for last seat which is more closer to the BLACK BOX so that if any Catastrophy should incase occur we would be at save hand than the rest passengers ..Emmm what amma thinking grin grin grin

As in ehn, my mind went there too o. Sadly, we all know how planes are.

MrHighSea:

Now I step in.

Fighter jets are flew by fighters. The fighter pilots pass thru rugged simulations and they are combat certified. They are good marksmen. Shoot a fighter pilot down, he changes to guerrilla, war continues. The prominent safety gadjet in jets is the ejector seats, others are that dy wear parachutes while flying, technology behind the helmet of F-35 is still classified. These jets passengers are the missiles, enough electronics to enable "ghost mode" as I call it or evade radar detection and encourage precision. For 4k sake, a fighter pilot is expected to eject out of his seat once in his life time. Second attempt can render his vertebra/spinal cord useless.

Integrating the safety measures on d blackbox in the liner itself, will màke d jet very heavy for commercial use. These companies are out to make money. More passengers, more money. Concorde was designed as a military jet, read up why it was retired.

God, I love jets.

Wow. Today I'm being schooled o. We learn everyday indeed

why can't the plane be made to withstand crash like the black box

It would make the plane too heavy
