@ trunking - 10.03.24 - 09:07pm I'd rather crash into the sea than on land. Can't planes survive that way? Travelling at speed hitting water is like hitting concrete |

water cannot be compressed, on land at least there's a chance of trees slowing down the impact speed.

Yea, I dunno. I dont think a plane free falling from 30 000 feet is gonna break its impact from the average tall trees of say 100 feet high. Granted, the sequoias are almost 400 feet high, and even then I cant see that making much of a diff. |

They would rip the plane apart surely

https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/malaysia-airlines-flight-370-boeing-expert-b2511758.html A decade on from the MH370 aviation mystery, a British Boeing 777 pilot has claimed that the flights take-off documents are clues that the pilot pre-meditated a mass murder-suicide. Simon Hardy believes that the Malaysian Airlines flight plan and technical log reveal last-minute changes to the cargo including an additional 3,000kg of fuel and extra oxygen that indicate Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah directed the plane to oblivion. Hardy, who worked with the Australian Transport Safety Bureau during the search in 2015, told The Sun: ''It's a strange coincidence that the last engineering task that was done before it headed off to oblivion was topping up crew oxygen which is only for the pit, not for the cabin crew.'' The aviation expert called the additions to the flight ''bizarre'' and said that they didn't meet the official requirements to justify the changes. |

Combined with a trail of satellite clues Hardy believes he has calculated the position of the missing aircraft just outside the official 7th arc search area in the Geelvinck Fracture Zone of the Southern Indian Ocean, a trench hundreds of miles long.

@ 3mel - 11.03.24 - 12:34pm water cannot be compressed, on land at least there's a chance of trees slowing down the impact speed. Trees are incredibly strong, they don't move. More the issue, trees or any object has more resistance, the faster it's being forced. So as much as water is like concrete when hit at high speed, trees are, too. A simple test of this is to place a brick on the floor, and kick it. The slower you kick it, the more it will move without hurting your foot. A car will be cut in half before it moves a mature tree. Whilst the roots anchor the tree, the entire weight of the tree is countering the direction of the car. Yet high speed entry into water does relatively little damage - whilst water can't compress, a body of water can move in many directions at once, so no small area of water has to move far. I'd prefer it if my pilot chooses water before trees. |

I could just suicide myself and everybody else by simply not taking off. Nobody could stop me. why do I want to do all this extra sh*t ? |
