Post by Beer-lord »

Not to make fun of the horrible Malaysian airlines disaster but this was really on CNN's crawl on live tv!

This is why I stopped relying on CNN as a news source a long time ago.

I wonder if that's a problem unique to the 777's or do all aircraft have this same problem? They should have expanded on the subject for some of the less informed viewers

News Flash: This problem MAY extend to ground vehicles as well!

Someone should let them know. :whistle:

Not to worry. The Feds will soon pass a regulation requiring aircraft to stop flying when they run out of fuel.

CNN produces more Cow Flatulence than cows do. I think the Gob'ment is looking in the wrong places for green house gases.
And as far as CNN, if they said Good Morning, I'd be asking myself... What the Hell is going on now?

If I remember correctly, during the oil embargo in the seventies, there was a state - I can't remember which one - that passed a law that it was illegal to drive in to the gas station with an empty gas tank.
Things men have made with wakened hands, and put soft life into
Are awake through years with transferred touch and go on glowing
For long years.
And for this reason some old things are lovely
Warm still with the life of forgotten men who made them.

Only if they are going downhill! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oShTJ90fC34)
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."
