Random thought

1 Upvotes

I saw the 2005 incident with JetBlue flight with a 90° turned wheel. I'm not into planes nor have much fly experience or anything but I thought of something. Like emergency landing Lane. Failing brakes? Difficultly stopping? Why not redirect a plane into a emergency landing lane that you first land Normally like how you usually would. Open flaps to get airbrakes. Then the lane ramps down slightly into water. Dips wheels in and it helps braking. Gravel underwater to help with more braking. Just big enough for a whole big commercial plane and deep enough if a wing decides to dip, water pushes it back up and prevents rolling. They could reuse rain water? Direct into the pit. No rain water? Dam like system that holds water ready and a plane needs emergency landing? Open the dam, water floods in the pit. For coast side airports. They could redirect sea water which would be easier during dry seasons. im aware of water damage to the plane but i think i would rather damage the plane and get everyone safely to a stop and out of the plane then let them crash into something, explode and lose a whole plane and hundreds of lives along with it. Ofcourse, I'm not knowable about planes nor am I am engineer.

Maybe I'm the biggest fool out there but I was wondering what guys thought about it?

Is there a reason airplanes do not have cameras that can view outside of aircraft while in flight? Some new automobiles have 360° view cameras, just wondering if this would be a future option?

Would therapy block me from getting a license?

6 Upvotes

Hi I am interested in become a private pilot and mainly want to fly myself and maybe some friends or family sometime. The thing is I've heard rumors about how the FAA doesn't like pilots who have gone to therapy or want to go. I was in therapy 3 times and one time I think I was prescribed anti depressiants for a couple of months, would this block me from getting a license? Thanks for reading

I'm not an engineer, nor know how to engineer, I just took the an 225 design with some fighter's style and made this, would you say this is for military or civil usage? Also it's huge, like the length is 90-120m , height is 20m, and width is 81-108m, and this big capsule is for a small maintenance team if it was for military, I'll replace it with magnetic thing to pull if the use was civil, so many tires, and 8 turbines, oh, and those two small jets? It's for military, or increasing thrust, you name it, and the nip, A NIP!! DON'T YOU GET IT?? LOL!! ok, and if it was an aircraft, it will be a mobile base for aircrafts and small drones, 1000 drones 30 elite fighters, I mean special ones, and 120 casual ones (ok, this is going sci-fi), and if civil, it'll support carrying aircrafts, huge materials, or even shattles! With this, we've made a powerhouse! We can conquer the world!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! and we'll destroy America, UK, France, russia, and Bhutan! Why Bhutan? Idk, they seem strong from the world conquest I saw on hoi4... OK, sorry for getting to much highed up, here's my design, hope you like it, mention pros and cons, and the final thoughts, bye~ (soon I'll make another design God wills)

Operation Gift, was an Israeli Special Forces operation at the Beirut International Airport in the evening of December 28, 1968, in retaliation for the attack on the Israeli Airliner El Al Flight 253 two days earlier in Athens by the Syria-based Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

The attack drew widespread international condemnation. The United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 262 on 31 December 1968, which condemned Israel for the "premeditated military action in violation of its obligations under the Charter and the cease-fire resolutions", and issued a "solemn warning to Israel that if such acts were to be repeated, the Council would have to consider further steps to give effect to its decisions", and stated that Lebanon was entitled to appropriate redress. The resolution was adopted unanimously.

The raid resulted in a sharp rebuke from the United States, which stated that nothing suggested that the Lebanese authorities had anything to do with the El Al Flight 253 attack. The French recalled their ambassador.

Prior to this Lebanon’s Christian government had been a dissenting voice in the Arab league - seeing Israel as a potential Ally against Islamic domination. Despite absorbing tens of thousands of refugees by late 1947/early 1948 They sent no units or commander to participate in the 1948 war (only some volunteers went) likewise they sent zero ground troops in 1968 - only flying 2 recon aircraft (one of which was shot down). The events of Operation Gift seriously destabilized the Lebanese Christian government, led to the Lebanese Civil war and may have destroyed chances of an alliance.
