  1. https://www.twz.com/air/marine-corps-av-8b-harrier-pilot-downed-seven-drones-report The next story is about a laser guided anti drone system. https://www.twz.com/land/first-look-at-laser-guided-rocket-counter-drone-system-blasting-a-russian-drone
  2. Not to get political, but perhaps a few letters to say whoever was involved in the EU for getting apple to standardize the cables and not change them every 15 minutes(sarcasm) might be interested to know just how much E waste that this may create? Anyone? It looks like Win 11 23h2 is ok according to what I read on DCS forum but you may have to block automatic updates which is crazy from a security of your system point of view.
  3. Meteor and Spear three for the F-35 by end of the decade. https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/f-35-to-get-meteor-spear-3-missiles-by-end-of-decade We shall see.
  4. Thanks to everyone involved. 72 Flights. Well done Ingenuity. Space.com report https://www.space.com/nasa-ingenuity-mars-helicopter-mission-ends
  5. I always remembered this Star Trek scene thinking about the HB researchers looking for info on the YF-23. The simulator must have been something to try. Here is the YF-23 video
  6. https://www.flightglobal.com/safety/faa-recommending-737-900er-door-plug-inspections/156576.article Sigh. I really hope that all involved can figure this out quickly and with a proper fix.
  7. Netflix has posted the full 1st episode on yt. 1 hour long. Some behind the scenes: Full first episode:
  8. Eeesh. I know they will fix it but...eeesh From the ntsb flickr account https://www.pprune.org/accidents-close-calls/656760-alaska-airlines-737-900-max-loses-door-flight-out-pdx.html#post11577784
  9. The door/plug at the NTSB. Thanks to OP on pprune. That is a few years of bubble wrap popping for me. https://www.pprune.org/accidents-close-calls/656760-alaska-airlines-737-900-max-loses-door-flight-out-pdx-49.html#post11576255
  10. Re CVR/FDR etc They should all be 25hr, and the batteries should all be extended life. Flotation buoys of some type that register the last known gps location in case of a catastrophic water incident. Also why are these not retroactive to already existing and flying aircraft? So a plane built 5-10 years ago which has a cvr still only needs the 2hr? Yes cost, ask the relatives of still missing aircraft how they feel about that.
  11. https://leehamnews.com/ FAA boosts oversight of Boeing; undelivered MAX 9s have discrepancies "Boeing finds discrepancies in undelivered aircraft. Boeing employees have found discrepancies in four of six undelivered MAX 9s that are on the flight line, LNA has learned. The nature of these discrepancies has not been detailed. The customers were not identified"
  12. Glad that you liked them. I hope you do decide to build. I wish I was as talented as these artists.
  13. From the Star Trek Ships of the line calendars. I really like the F-104/Enterprise and the klingon/Federation battle https://www.artstation.com/artwork/4b2lWY Other arts including BSG https://www.artstation.com/sleekndone Marc Bell did a nice version of the original series Enterprise with a nice Saucer separation. https://www.artstation.com/marcbell https://www.artstation.com/artwork/JlLyDm
  14. Plug found https://katu.com/news/local/ntsb-says-the-door-plug-from-alaska-1282-has-been-found Previous to this they found 2 phones, one of which was still functional after a fall from approx 16K feet. Back to the plug, well hopefully it helps solve things. We can all be grateful that no one was hurt when it landed.
  15. Discussion over on pprune. They start talking about bolts etc. For those that like them, there are even blue and red lines, arrows. I dont understand a lot of it, but I found it interesting. https://www.pprune.org/accidents-close-calls/656760-alaska-airlines-737-900-max-loses-door-flight-out-pdx-15.html?ispreloading=1#post11570878
  16. Temporary No fly issued by FAA for this configuration until inspections can be completed. 4-8 hours per air frame iirc. Here is a longer version of the Cockpit/ATC.
  17. Grainy photo from a distance. https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/crashed-b-1b-bomber-carcass-visible-at-south-dakota-base Good that the crew are ok.
  18. RIP to the 5 on the Dash 7. Condolences to their families.
  19. Just puting this out there before anyone buys a HMD that could be affected. From what I have read, this will be a problem for some HMDs not all. I think that the HP G2 is one of them. Hopefully some kind soul who knows how to program will release a driver when windows doesnt work for a given HMD. https://www.uploadvr.com/windows-mixed-reality-headset-support-end-date/
  20. There is a B&W re release coming. The movie even has the J7W1 in it. Nice touch. There is a team using mattes to make it B&W? They want to make it more terrifying according to this post. https://www.reddit.com/r/GODZILLA/comments/18n1t2m/minus_ones_black_and_white_rerelease_is_a_proper/ BW Trailer redone with a filter I think?
  21. P-8 recovered https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/how-the-navy-got-its-p-8a-poseidon-out-of-the-water-in-hawaii
