Breaking, leading "expert" says 804 was sending telemetry to satellites warning of comp failure and smoke in front lav

I'm no expert either but I would have thought it would be quite easy to override it in that particular situation by simply cutting off the power supply to the computer, by pressing a switch or unplugging a wire for example.

Yet they're saying it was "terrorism".

I guess when you constantly blame everything on terrorism it justifies the never-ending neo-con military crusades.

My toaster malfunctioned and ISIS has claimed responsibility. So let's invade Syria.

Government Logic 101.

Wow. Interesting

Airbus have a Joystick to "fly" . . . those inputs are the way to move surface-controls . . . no backup system if "joystick data" is a no good for the cpu´s. Burn the cables and that is it. Depending on the configuration pilots can over-ride cpu´s commands some or all.

So where's the plane? If it had of crashed there'd be a slick of gas, and oil and floating debris.

This story is bull crap. Pilots grabbed it, terrorists grabbed it or nefarious hackers. Bad scene no matter which.

Still doesn't rule out a smaller bomb or an incendiary device...

the report of finding debris and body parts today is suspect.

the ACARS report that just popped-up is a phony plant.

they still know NOTHEING of what happened to Flt. 804

.

If somebody flushed an explosive device it could have caused the simultaneous report of de-icer, sliding window, and lavatory smoke.

I'm thinking of that creepy FB picture of the female flight attendant showing the plane plunging headfirst into the ocean, and herself wading out on the shore with her luggage. Weird.

Airbus A320 Primary Flight Controls


[link to www.dutchops.com]


In contrast with the flight control system installed on conventional aircraft, the Airbus A320 is fitted with a fly-by-wire flight control system. This means that the mechanical linkage between control column and control surface has been replaced by electrical wires. Just like the Boeing 737, the Airbus A320 flight controls are divided into primary and secondary flight controls. Both the primary and secondary flight controls are controlled by a total of 7 computers. The primary flight controls fitted on the aircraft are controlled by sidestick inputs and digital processing by the Elevator Aileron Computer (ELAC), the Spoiler Elevator Computer (SEC) and Flight Augmentation Computer (FAC). When the primary flight controls on the Airbus A320 are being operated, electrical signals from the sidestick or Flight Management and Guidance System (FMGS) are send to the flight control computers before being passed to the flight control hydraulic actuator.

If a plane descends rapidly from a great height the stress on the airframe pulls it apart. That plane was at 37,000ft so it would be in many pieces before it hit the ground.

unless it was a fast controlled descent, so the pilot could
fly at 100 ft. above the deck, under the radar, and land in Cypress.

Throne, blast pot, crapper.

Thanks for the pin!

Water from the lav sink was plugged and the faucet was left on. Water accumulated under the lav where the computers reside, a short was created and the fire started, knocking out the computers...

You're right, that is what they should find. Oh wait, they have!

Possibly Acars telemetry. Sound like a small device that took out various systems and hull integrity.

Pprune will have chapter and verse

I think everyone is missing the obvious....... Was the lavatory where the fire broke out and tranny or binary shitter?

Exactly. That's why Boeings still have the old-fashioned cables and hydraulics to operate the actuators on the flight controls.

the Airline Companies cry all their crocodile tears, but they really don't care if all these planes crash all over the place.

Nothing will happen to AirBus, other than a hefty fine and payoff to all the families. Boeing didn't go out of business when the Alaskan Air flight out of Cabo went nose down with their employees on it flying back to SeaTac due to the elevator screws breaking in the tail section and crashing into the Pacific. 3 mins of complete hell.

You know they will just change the story so they can make Trump look like a fool!

Already thought about that but shitllery came out and said the same thing a little while later.

That's true. It's cheaper to settle a lawsuit than it is to address the root problem.

Wrong! Boeing started installing fly-by-wire when the 777 was introduced. The pilots can instruct the computer to give them manual control, if they can commnicate with it.

Wow. I had no idea these planes had so many stories they need elevators!

Cool. I wonder what upset Hal. Trannies smoking in the restroom?

Fire!

Fire extinguishing system!

Critical wiring wrapped in fire protective jackets and segregated to prevent total failure of system.

It took more than an accident to melt down this system.

Thermite anyone?

I don't think this has been posted yet, but it could be huge!:

They are spinning it to not be terrorism cause Trump said it was.

They are spinning not to be terrorism because it wasn't
