Can we be open to a perverse negative? A perverse negative scenario stemming from viewing Children of Magenta is... perhaps they were in the auto mode up until too late, at which time they regained situational awareness and flew the airplane with what they had, i.e. nothing. The auto mode may have destroyed the entire plane, instead. It occurred to me after watching the video that while the video shames the auto mode addiction, perhaps the crew had in good time gotten off the addiction and really did fly the plane with zero lift and zero power, but they lifted the nose to avoid the wall, nixing the tail, avoiding complete fireball and crash? Perhaps? Actually... I know nothing... Stray thoughts occur from time to time while I watch stuff. mao _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
