Ka0 posted:A reminder that the air france 447 investigation took over 2 years to find the flight recorders (and over a hundred missing passengers still strapped to their seats) about 14000 feet deep in the atlantic ridge. This has been touched upon a bit in the last few pages, but does anyone know what the exact method of death is upon impact? Like, when a plane smashes into the ocean or ground at like 400 mph does your brain and internal organs just splatter across the front of your skull and ribcage or what?

Massive trauma because the water surface might as well be concrete at that speed. You might have already died if decompression was the cause, and I guess if you the fall somehow you'd most likely drown.

If you look up the early air crash investigations from the BOAC Comet accidents in the 1950's, massive head and chest trauma from people being thrown into overhead lockers, bulkheads and seats was a big factor. One of the accidents was in the Mediterranean, and an Italian pathologist who conducted the autopsies of some of the victims of the crash noted that the injuries were remarkably similar to the trauma suffered in serious car accidents. It took a re-enactment for the investigators to work out how the gently caress it all transpired in the actual aircraft cabin.

So basically shattered ribcages/spines/skulls, ripped up organs and such? I figured as much, but the article about passengers in AF447 being found in their crash positions made me wonder just how extensive the trauma was. I always figured that in that type of accident the physical trauma is so severe that you clean victims up with basically trash bags and shovels, so I was a little surprised to read about presumably (mostly) intact bodies in a jetliner crash. Also as far as air accidents go, Saudi Flight 163 is a pretty poo poo way to die. It's not the only incident of that type either, Saudi Arabia apparently has bad luck with jetliners catching fire and killing everyone on board over their territory. quote:Fuel, "probably introduced as a result of 'burn through' of the centre fuel tank",[1] intensified the fire, which eventually consumed the cabin floor. People began falling out of the airplane when their seat harnesses burned through.

Did they ever disclose where Bin Laden was buried? Maybe the Illuminati in the military somehow managed to drop him in a deep crevice, the place where the old ones slumber. Imbued with dark energy, he came back to life, only to shoot down planes with his evil gaze, and confuse malaysian officials with his jedi mind tricks. The next chapter in international supernatural terrorism has just begun.

It's not a water landing, but if anyone is looking for something to haunt their dreams for a while, there are a bunch of photos of the JAL 123 crash that you can find with a simple google search.

I didn't know that the passengers were more or less aware of the situation and are "prepared" to brace for impact. I thought it was simply a total anarchy in the cabin and in the whole plane as the pilots had not idea what the hell was going on and didn't quite expect that they were about to crash until the last words of the captain.

It looks like the data reporting system and the transponder were shutdown about 13 minutes apart from each other, possibly indicating they weren't taken out by the same system failure and may have been shut down manually. http://abcnews.go.com/International/malaysia-airliner-pinging-indication-crashed-indian-ocean/story?id=22894802 It also appears to have been following a regular navigation route indicating that somebody who knows what they're doing was in control of the flight after contact was lost http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/03/14/us-malaysiaairlines-flight-idUSBREA2701720140314 Maybe this Tom Clancy bullshit will pan out after all

http://news.sky.com/story/1225731/missing-plane-flown-towards-andaman-islands Summary: Flown to secret base on Andaman Islands. No doubt being loaded up with nukes right now. Passengers probably held in some sort of rickety island prison, no doubt saving them for future bargaining tactics. At least one of the passengers is likely to have "a set of unique skills" like Liam Neeson, and will probably escape and become the protagonist in this ongoing situation.

Is it out of question that the plane would have had enough fuel to fly all the way to Pakistan or Afghanistan? I can't really come out with any kind of remotely reasonable theory for landing the plane in the Andaman islands and then keeping it there for a week or whatever the gently caress.

Road_Warrior posted:Isnt this near that island where those wankers live who come out and throw spears and poo poo at helicopters? Helicopters, not so sure about it, but yeah, some of the tribes over there are not very warm and they are known to kill approaching foreigners, whether it is accidental or not. Thus, we know nothing about few of their languages, such as the Sentinelese language. And until today we still can't contact them as we have no idea what are they saying, even through the other people of the islands. Edit: you're right, the Sentineleses did shoot arrows at helicopters that came to retrieve the bodies of killed fishermen and that was only a few years ago. I guess that whatever happened flight 350 was one of their shenanigans.

Bolivar posted:Is it out of question that the plane would have had enough fuel to fly all the way to Pakistan or Afghanistan? The only other explanation is that whoever was in control, found a way to disable ACARS reporting and the plane carried on from the area of the last known 'ping' from the system. MAL stated to the New Straits Times that the plane had enough fuel on board to last "until 8:30" that morning (local time): http://www.nst.com.my/latest/font-color-red-missing-mh370-font-mas-refutes-claims-aircraft-ran-out-of-fuel-1.502461 So if that is correct, it could have strayed much farther than the 2,200nm figure being bandied around by the press.

It's at the bottom of the ocean. If it had landed anywhere where there was enough land to do so, we'd have known about it. Freaky as poo poo, though. My mind keeps wanting to say "terrorism", but someone would have taken responsibility for that by now.
