Which they would then quote out of context as "there is no authority except for god".

Are there actually no safeguards against this? It seems like a pretty big fucking flaw in a democratic system if you can kill the opposing elected officials in order to gain control of the state. Like their votes should temporarily go to someone else in the party or something, not just be wiped out completely.

Guy with a nuralink cut me off in traffic, so I took out my flipper zero and made him gender dysphoric.

I got lucky and in my years of gliding never had an actual rope break. In fact I only ever heard of one happening at this place while I worked there. They had the ropes down to an art though, inspected multiple times a day and the end inspected on every launch, custom covers for the ring to protect it while dragged down the runway, it was fancy. Being a training facility I suppose that's smart. Closest I got was during my instructor training with the chief pilot, that's the only person allowed to do unbriefed emergency simulations. It definitely caught me off guard!

Yeah, India has to be one of the worst places for an accident like this just due to pure population density too. Looking at the direction it took off, they would have had to make it 7 miles at an absolute minimum to clear most of the densely populated area, or turn right and attempt to land in the river. But in this situation it only made it 1 mile, so neither was a possibility.

It's a whole lot different with an aircraft that size. I mean I used to practice power off forced approaches pretty frequently when I was flying, in small aircraft it's pretty safe. But that was starting from altitude. How many times have you cut the engine and practiced a power loss situation shortly after takeoff? I don't believe I ever have at least, closet thing I did to that was a simulated rope break while instructing on gliders and even then we gave ourselves wayyy more altitude than we required and were flying over the airport still when we pulled the release. Plus it's a glider, so cheating a bit. It's just too risky even to practice really, because you don't have an easy out if the engine dies after being pulled to idle or something. Same goes for an airliner but much worse, at most they may have trained for this in a simulator. Best thing you can do to prepare is have altitude based decision gates so you don't have to think as much and can just act if something does go wrong, even if those decisions are "200 to 500 feet I'm landing in the trees".

Really it's far too soon to say and until they get a chance to look over flight data, nobody knows for sure. The RAT would be a good indicator, I know Airbus deploys the RAT automatically in a double engine faliure but am unsure about Boeing's but asume it's the same. I have also heard that the airline's mechanical inspections and maintenance procedures are not great, so maybe that had a role too. The sole survivor said about 30 seconds after takeoff he heard a bang, possibly a bird strike or turbine breaking apart. Even a single engine lost that soon in flight would probably cause a similar outcome to here, the aircraft is at it's heaviest on take off and didn't have altitude to work with. But again, lots of guesses from me here.

Really depends how much the pilots were paying attention, a stall should have a few different warnings, both electrically from the AoA indicator and physically how the aircraft behaves. To me it looked like the pilots were doing what they could to gain altitude without stalling in the process, unfortunately there was just no way out in that scenario. If the power loss situation ends up being correct, it's a very shitty position to be in and was always one of my biggest fears while flying as your options during the initial climb are extremely limited to none at all.

So the VR speed for a 787 isn't going to be set like a Cessna 172, it's going to be a calculated value depending on weight, temperature, etc. The computers will calculate this speed for you before flight, assuming all info is input correctly.

The cockpit won't be able to see the flaps visually but will have a digital indicator that shows the position. During pre take-off checks one of the procedures would be to check this indicator for the correct setting.

With the very limited available info and the fact that video shows it slowly descending without obvious external mechanical issues, my initial guess is on pilot or computer error.

Apparently one guy survived, it's early on so I wouldn't be surprised if the story changes but he was in the exit row and allegedly jumped from the plane before impact, which is insane if true.

Yeah I have not been fond of him so far. He's trying to gaslight and manipulate us and isn't addressing any of Canada's complaints, just waving them off and changing the subject to how mean we are to the Americans for 'no reason at all'.

No, just frame 2.

Some person named Lily is going to be very disapointed in the future if they want a username with their name in it. What do you mean they're all taken?!?

Not that I've ever heard of, at least in the area of aviation I deal with. You might 'dock' it at an airport with mechanical ramps, but even then you'd usually just say taxi to the ramp or parking.
