Re: Passenger Plane Crashes in Brazil (ATR 72-500)
Just like the "Teacups" ride at Disneyland...

What's going through your mind for those 13 seconds if you were in that plane? I imagine the G Forces, and complete panic. And saying to yourself "today is the day goodbye world". Wow!!!

Most cell phone screens shatter if you fart with them in your back pocket. Not sure they'd survive a plane crash and resulting inferno. Even with a stick-on screen protector and Spiderman case from Wal-Mart. Cunts.

Re: Passenger Plane Crashes in Brazil (ATR 72-500)
They would only experience less than 1g at the initiation of the stall and fall to the ground when the aircraft and the people inside are beginning the rapid descent. In simplistic terms, once the airplane's falling speed, in a flat spin like this one, becomes stable at what's called terminal velocity (seemingly from ADS-B data, about 13,000 feet per minute or 147 miles per hour), the people inside, who COULD fall faster if they were not inside a plane protected from the drag of the wind, would be sitting in their seats with 1g of downward force. What they WERE experiencing was a force throwing them toward the windows, like on a merry-go-round. Zero-g is only felt when the body is accelerating downward with no upward force. Once the acceleration downward stops and the speed downward becomes constant, the downward force returns to 1g. That's a simplistic explanation.

Oh man...so sad, respect and silence for all souls. Brazilian national media suggests ice formation on the wings as the likely cause. Pilots from other companies reported severe ice on the same route as the accident. O Globo, Mainstream Journal https://oglobo.globo.com/brasil/noti...z-perito.ghtml |

Re: Passenger Plane Crashes in Brazil (ATR 72-500)
Damn! I misspoke. Those forward of the center of rotation (basically forward of the wing) would be pressed forward as if facing outward on a merry-go-round. Those sitting near the wing would experience rotation only, as if sitting in the middle of a merry-go-round. Those behind the wing would be pressed back into their seats as if facing inward on a merry-go-round. |
