Come on Beachnut. You can do better than just uttering a bunch of ad hominems. The same utterances can be made about Trusters and the OCT. How about some substance? You are a pilot and know about Cabin Air Pressure Outflow Valves (CAPOV) and Flight Management Systems (FMS). Let's hear your analysis of why these could not be adapted to be Remote Controlled. It is a simple explanation: CAPOV lets air out, disabling the occupants. FMS flies the plane into buildings. Witnesses see a plane, plane parts are found, and DNA confirms the people on board. FDRs conveniently "lost" of "have no useful data". Let's hear a good technical response.
Come on TMP/cicorp. You can do better than just uttering a bunch of made up fantasies and outright lies. Try to add something that would be closer to being possible, something with substance.
Let me ask you TMP, what is your experience in aviation? Are you a pilot, maybe an aeronautical engineer, an A&E, a passenger? Do you even know what an airplane looks like?
Firstly, explain to me just how you would install the remote controls to operate the outflow valves in the manner you describe. Do you have any idea where these outflow valves are located? Well, let me give you a hint. They are located at the rear of the aircraft and are directly mounted to the aft pressure bulkhead. There is not enough room to mount your remote control unit, and especially not enough room for your bell and crank mechanism to operate the outflow valves. By the way, all moving parts of the outflow valves are house internally.
No, the outflow valve does not just let air out; it controls the airflow of the aircraft. It is more like a pressure regulator than anything else. As pressure builds beyond a certain point inside the pressurized area of the aircraft, the valves open. As the pressure drops, they close. A very simple operation.
Even if the valves were fully opened, bleed air would still provide warm compressed air to the cabin area, unless of course, you now remotely shut down the engines. And if, by some chance, you did manage to get the cabin altitude to climb to 14,00ft ASL, the emergency oxygen system would activate.
Now, for the FMCS, which you seem to think has a plug and play feature. Your theory of modifying the FMCS is probably one of your more asinine theories. The FMCS is not a very strong computer system at all. In fact, it has a very small storage area that would be stressed to run solitaire. It is more for the purpose of storing a database than anything and only accepts input from one of the pilots. I’ll say this one more time; to modify the Honeywell FMCS used on the B757/767 to fly the aircraft by remote control is impossible, to put it bluntly.
TMP, have you ever been on the flight deck of an airliner?
My apologies Beachnut and others for jumping on this post, but TMP/cicorp won’t answer my posts.
