I’ve just got off a flight from Birmingham to Edinburgh. Considering this flight is mostly overland (if you forget the Firth of Forth), it seems strange that at least half of the safety briefing is about how to put the lifejacket on.

So while there are lots of statistics about how many plane crashes there are and how safe air travel is, I would like to know how many lives have ever been saved by those yellow life jackets? I’ll bet it’s very few.
I know that that plane might make journeys over water, but I meant for global air travel overall. I also appreciate that falling out of a plane from 13,000ft is not survivable even into water (unless you are the Hoff).

The assumption is that a plane will be able to crash land into a body of water in a controlled fashion that will allow the passengers to enetr the water and use the lifejackets to stay afloat until rescuers arrive. I doubt many people have ever survived a plane crash and thought, “few, if it hadn’t been for that life jacket I would have been screwed!”

A few weeks ago my biggest RC plane, a Christen Husky, crashed while aerotowing due to some technical failure, probably caused by the reciever battery. It was not even two years old From the footage taken from the gliders cockpit I made this video also including the maiden flight. This is the old version; now I have made a revised one with an alternative ending which is posted as a response (see link below the video screen).

This is a promotional video intended to advertise a custom skin I created for the video game Left 4 Dead 2. It alters the rescue helicopters seen throughout said electronic entertainment title to become of the chocolate variety. I have been lead to believe that this has some manner of critical importance to the plot. Based on a t-shirt: store.valvesoftware.com Download the Chocolate Helicopter here: www.fpsbanana.com This is the Beta-Style Coach skin also seen: www.fpsbanana.com Also, AI Tanks are horrible actors who do not know how to shut up and STAY OUT OF THE DAMN FRAME UNTIL YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO BE REVEALED.
