eric asked:
There is another air crash in US. Is riding a plane safe? Is there a way to go from China to US other than by air? Why not bring paragliders on the planes? In case of emergency, you can jump out. Is there such a boat that goes from China to US?
Is there a boat from Beijing to California? Thanks!

I just got to know that several very close friends of mine died in that plane crash in bishkek (kyrgyzstan) some weeks ago. I can’t get in touch with them, but I want to make sure if they really died…
Please help!
Guido asked:
I always thought water was certain death as water becomes very hard upon impact, but the recent crash in New York where the plane survived in one piece made me wonder if water landings are safer. I was also told pilots don’t train for water landings because there isn’t much chance to survive. Kinda a pointless question I know, but I’m just curious.

Does any force from an earthquake in particular anything over 6.0 on the Richter scale affect a helicopter hovering around the affected area or even bring it down?
’sea link2′…then what the hell are you doing answering this question then. Why bother.
Thomas asked:
I’d like to build a helicopter, which is either remote controlled, or one that I can acutally sit in. I’d like to discover all the technical wonders in a helicopter design. So I’d like to build one from scratch.

bittemeinrammstein asked:
Ka-50 “Hokum”, Ka-52 “Alligator”, Mi-24 “Hind”, and Mi-28 “Havoc” are shown
the most leathel helicopter force on the planet…
The main armament of the Ka-50/52 is the twelve laser-guided Vikhr anti-tank missiles with a maximum range of some 10 km. The laser guidance is reported to be virtually jam-proof and the system features automatic guidance to target enabling evasive movement immediately after missile launch. The fire control system automatically shares all target information among the four Black Sharks of a typical flight in real time, allowing one helicopter to engage a target spotted by another, and the system also can input target information from ground-based forward scouts with man-portable target designation gear.
the main armament of the Mi-28 is 1x chin-mounted 30 mm Shipunov 2A42 cannon with 300 rounds (220° horizontal fire)
up to 2,400 kg (4,400 lb) of disposable stores on four hardpoints including bombs, rockets, gunpods, anti-tank and anti-air missiles

The AH-1 was once the backbone of the United States Army’s attack helicopter fleet, but has been replaced by the AH-64 Apache in Army service. Upgraded versions continue to fly with the United States Marine Corps (AH-1W) and several other users…’
