The modern ejection chair has on board radar and positioning gear that links to any still functioning positioning gear on the plane and canopy to plot an ejection path away from the aircraft. The chair can compute gee forces to try and keep the pilot conscious while detecting and maneuvering around objects in mid air. The parachute won't deploy until it is clear of obstacles.

the technology is there to make passenger plane ejector seats. The willingness to wear flight suits (w/life jackets) and helmets and to stay strapped into chairs is not there.Its hard enough to make stupid asses keep their seat belts on.

This is my favorite post in this thread.

Even though I hate Foolproof.

gee forces.

The forces that make you say gee.

Like 'Gee, what an idiot?'

So I was watching MSNBC this evening and saw a clip of Glenn Beck ripping into the poor guy who lost his house to the fire that the nearby city's fire department refused to put out, saying that if they'd helped him he'd be mooching off his neighbors and that he was a freeloader to expect help he had forgotten to pay for in advance and so on and so forth in spite the fact that both he and his neighbors offered to pay whatever was necessary to save it on the spot. I was prepared to sigh heavily and roll my eyes as usual until I noticed that one of the posters he has hanging in his radio show space was visible in the corner. Specifically, the one on the far right here:



Aaaaaarrrrrrrgh!

actually the most grotesque part of this fucking charade is the fact that he put the word "FAITH" under this man's portrait

this is a guy who re-wrote his version of the new testament to remove all references to the divinity of Jesus along with every single miracle

this is a guy who wrote

"Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear."

and

"History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance, of which their political as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purpose."

and

"I do not find in orthodox Christianity one redeeming feature."

Fortunately Jon is a really good interviewer so it was still entertaining even with Bruce talking like this the whole time.

Faricazy

The Galaxy, you might know, is the largest aircraft ever. Like, ever.

Wikipedia has an excellent picture illustrating just how huge it is:



That's right. The Galaxy is so huge it can carry another Galaxy.

the thing is so fucking huge that when they land it here for air shows and shit they have a GODDAMN AVIATION MUSEUM INSIDE IT.

FALSE

the Antonov An-225 is bigger. About 25 feet longer and 70 feet longer wingspan.

Damn, you beat me to it.

You hear that everyone? If you don't practice religion as Mr. Monroe sees fit then you don't really have faith.

Good to see that SE++ has it's own Glen Beck or more acurately that the tea party has it's own Mr. Monroe.

The ghost of Jesus and every american that died fighting fascism and the forces of intolerance are looking down on you and shaking their heads MM. I always knew you had it in you, so glad you decided it was time to share with the class hater.
