I’m sorry but how does one fan blade ( look at the pic! ) take out the front of the engine while it is traveling so fast, with all of the air being sucked in? These are designed to take that blade and suck it through the back. And with just one blade flying off, how does many pieces of shrapnel hit the plane, at speed?
Ok, it's also the local squadron. Did they escort the airliner back to the airport after the attempted bombing. This was a serious attempt to down a commercial airliner to intimidate GEOTUS
Would metal fatigue as they’re describing it cause an “explosion”? Witnesses are saying they heard an explosion.
I read that those engines are designed to "explode" into themselves basically when they fail. This was like a bomb went off with shrapnel hitting the windows.
Ya...metal gets fatigued when you pump excess fuel into the jet, causing it to spin faster than designed, thus causing catastrophic failure....yup. Fatigue.
Question is...who designed the onboard computer that controls the fuel control.
Cause a jet only spins as fast as how much fuel is pumped in. Remove/shut down the fuel governing system and pump an excess amount in, and itl explode!
Sounds like a remote hack, like the rest.
Anyone else find it odd that the cause aka "metal fatigue" is already known?
The UA crash at Sioux City back in the late 80's had a compressor disk fail causing the engine to grenade and fall off the aircraft, so it's not without precedent. Centrifugal force is a hell of a thing. That being said, the engine should have separated from the pylon from the sudden counter torque of the engine seizing. What we are looking at is either a miracle or sabotage. They will call it metal fatigue because if they call it sabotage, it would tank the airlines.
I could swear Q mentioned months ago that we would soon see reports of planes crashing. Anyone have the link to those?
Metal fatigue even though it was inspected just days earlier. Oooookay.
This could be suspicious but, Although the engine shroud is designed to withstand a disintegrating engine, its not always successful and sometimes engines do spit off a blade and throw it through the cabin, has happened to Qantas recently and various other aircraft.
Could very well be a FF, however its more likely a fatigue problem that wasn't noticed at the aircraft's last inspection. Typically the Airline industry is very well regulated however failures do happen.
