The experts say that's very difficult to happen under 'normal' circumstances. Not imposssible, but extremely rare!

It could happen though. Last summer, a flight of Air Transat lost all its fuel over the North Atlantic in normal conditions of flight. The pilot, Robert Pich�, managed to flight his Airbus 300 to the Acores for 20 minutes, a reccord. The probabilities for an Airbus 300 to suddenly lose his fuel in flight is, according to experts, 1 / 100 000 000, under normal conditions. I guess that if that can happen normally, losing an engine also can happen. Also, in 2000, it was wheels that caused the crash of the Concorde.

Sorry, it's not I / I00 000 000, but I / I 000 000. Remember that the TWA flight that was destroyed in '96 was also a small probability (the explosion of an airplan in flight under normal conditions). Probabilites for an airplane to crash, or at least having problems, are mostly during the lift-off and during the landings. The Airbus is a very safe type of airplane, but does not fall of that rule. The crashed happened near an airport after lift-off.

And, of course, these days, a terrorist attack cannot be put aside "juste like this". I wouldn't be surprise by any of the theories (accident or terrorist attack). but remember : it's war and war is played on both sides. But my guess goes for the "simple" accident.

Cheerrrrsssss

I thought that pilots, if they're certain their plane is going down, are trained to dump as much of their fuel as possible to minimize the explosion?

Holy John · 11-12-2001, 08:24 PM

They did dump fuel. At least, that's what the medias said, but the medias......

Yes, I'm sure the evil western media was bahind the whole damned thing somehow...

Holy John · 11-12-2001, 08:49 PM

Yes Bama, I really think the pictures showed an Hollywood set for a future film and they messed-up the tapes. It's the evil medias, because evil is now fashion, it does sells.. so why not say everything is evil since it sells and the economy is fucked-up. I'm really sure it's not true, naaah. Can't be true.
