  1. From the comments Yeah, not a former pilot, but I can't believe there's any procedures manual that would have you cut off both fuel switches when you are 100 feet off the ground. Think, McFly
  2. Gonna need a reputable source on that
  3. It will all work out. Have a McFlurry.
  4. The survivor said he heard the engine(s) rev up before impact. Could that have been the APU, or would there have been enough time to switch the fuel back on, relight the engines, and start generating RPMs? The whole flight lasted 32 seconds.
  5. If it's Calicut the Twitter responses to his leaving the state tweet should be a good read before it's deleted
  6. One of the speculation videos raised a theory that there was an engine failure on one engine that led to a checklist item to shut off the fuel to it, but they cut off the good engine. This too should be easy to tell from the flight data. You will see one engine crap out, followed by the wrong engine being cut off, followed by that engine shutting down. In that case you'd expect to find only one switch in the off position in the wreckage.
  7. It should be pretty easy to tell, if the console didn't melt in the fire. If the switches were both found in the cutoff position there's really no other explanation. If you have one I'd love to hear it.
  8. All these fan bases who hate Texas, some of whom saw us whip their team, are really motivated after watching us rake in talent and win more games than their dumb asses. For each school you are in a battle with it only takes one crazy deal to sway the decision. And we are in battles with seemingly different schools for every one of them. Maybe we should try not winning so much and we can recruit better. It also doesn't help that collectives are muted.
  9. https://theaircurrent.com/aviation-safety/ai171-investigation-fuel-control-switches/ Seems the fuel cutoff switches may have been intentionally thrown. Is this yet another case of murder-by-pilot?
  10. There ain't no driver
  11. Over under on his net worth in 15 years: $2500
  12. Why didn't they buy a good QB? Double Eagle? More like double dumbass.
  13. I don't think any of our big 3 men's coaches did. I don't think Mack did.
  14. One thing not factored in here is that Stanford's field is garbage
  15. I imagine most of the jewelry is gone. But not the houses, boats, and stocks bought with the hock. Seize it.
  16. Well, was he negged for shitting on the left? If so he should emend his statement to read, you are allowed to shit on the left until you are sent to Bolivia.
  17. So we're just going to hand off the ball to a DT and everything will be cool?
  18. I saw an interview where some expert said that prior to the strike Iran had increased production and has been parking the surplus in tankers offshore near China. Something to the tune of 40m barrels.
  19. Who do I thank for "throwing in another million" of not my money? About time.
  20. Nothing against LSU team. Most are from other places or colleges anyway. But their fans are utter trash.
  21. For 13 innings they've been waving at breaking balls and missing them by 2 feet. They are pretenders.
