Russian Plane Crash
#14
RE: Russian Plane Crash
All true, but I'm pretty sure that complete, catastrophic loss of either the entire tail or full control of the elevator would be beyond the capacity of an airliner's FBW system to handle, and because in all aircraft the center of gravity must be ahead of the center of pressure for the aircraft to fly in a straight line (again, I know FBW can handle unstable aircraft, but that's something you design into a fighter, which needs to turn sharply and suddenly, not an airliner) you'd still wind up with an a/c that's nose-down upon loss of the tail.

According to the PDF file, linked below, the A321 has manual backups in the event of power loss (page 39), and is capable of being aft-CG loaded for fuel efficiency, but does have positive pitch stability (nose-heavy design). There are warnings about fuel balance loading too far aft, so I suspect the a/c is not as tolerant as other designs in that respect.

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost

I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
