Turbofan's Engineering forum links (split from: AA77 FDR Data, Explained)
Turbofan, when will you start your thread on the electronics engineering forum which pwns us all?
Will you link to it when you do? |

If I don't see a link to Turbofan's electronics forum thread, the most likely conclusion is that he did post such a thread, and doesn't want to tell anyone the results. After all, he wouldn't lie about his intention to post it, not when it's so trivially easy to actually do.
Respectfully, Myriad |

Thanks chillzero, I can't wait to see his thread in the EE forum! Don't forget to link to this one in the OP Turbofan, so everyone knows exactly the context of what you're talking about!

Could someone fill me in on the background to this? I've been spending most of my time posting at ATS so I must have missed the comedy.

From the last post on this page forward. Turbofan takes on R. Mackey and promises to post R. Mackey's "errors" on various electronics forums. *chuckles* |

Can someone quote or repost the links when he does (some of us have him [Turbofan] on ignore, but would still like to enjoy watching him have his ass handed to him).

Will do, TAM, if it ever happens (which I wouldn't bet on-I think he's just trying to brazen it out, and failing).

Remember when Turbofan's hero Balsamo posted at the PPrune forum to claim Hanjour couldn't hit the Pentagon and got reamed a new one? It's gonna be deja vu all over again!

Seems the moderator there removed/relocated a lot of the "ass handing" comments, as the 2 page thread now seems pretty boring, and pretty benign, Wildcat.

That linked thread does include a hint on the second page that Robby had brought up flight 77.
Rob tried valiently to say that if the aircraft was changing it pitch angle that the spot-on-the-glass method would not work but many others pointed out that if the flight surfaces remained as they would be in cruise that there would be no need for a change in pitch and that flying the spot on the window into the target would work just fine to crash into said target. |

bump
and my .02 I call this: Turbofan goes AS Turbofan to a few forums, explains his argument with Truthy rhetoric, clues that he's a total clown, rips on Mackey personally, and links to the threads here. The first couple responses will dismiss him as a loon, and refuse to even address the question. Then someone will go to the hassle of explaining why he's wrong. He will say they attacked him for being a truther and lied and know nothing, support the gov't story, either out of fear or because they're loyalists or agents. To avoid this coming true, TF, I advise go incognito, don't name Mackey as the defendant, just ask the questions simple and accept the answers and post them here. Otherwise, again, it'll be hard to take you serious, or to even remotely consider starting to do so, even on a trial basis. |

Balsamo's primary problem appears to be his arrogance. He actually has very little experience in real aviation terms, but he pretends to be God's gift to the aviation world.
I've met a few like him, but for the most part they usually don't live very long. A old saying in the aviation world is that there are "old pilots" and there are "bold pilots", but there are no "old bold pilots". His arrogance has NO PLACE in the Commercial Transport World of flying. Of course, the airline business is really quite safe compared to other types of flying, but if he exhibits the same attitude in the cockpit as we've seen everywhere he's posted, he's a hazard. I can't imagine flying with someone that cocky, unwilling to ask questions and learn, with his level of experience. The jerk doesn't have an ATP Certificate, but belittles it as being a $ 1000 piece of paper. For those who don't know an ATP can be obtained with 1500 hours of flying time with some other caveats that most have with that many hours of experience. He claims to have around 4000 hours of total time and still doesn't have it. Most folks I know have gotten one just to make themselves more employable. While it's not a major issue until it's actually required for PIC duties in FAR Pt 121 or FAR Pt 135 the fact that he belittles it is very telling regarding his attitude. Turbofan exhibits precisely the same type of attitude, so it's not surprising that they are cohorts. |

If I knew where these EE forums were, I'd take the liberty of posting the exchange in the FDR thread (from, say, page 61 on) there myself and throwing it open for comment.

What do you expect. At least Rob had the courage to actually post his nonsense on professional sites. Apparently his minions don't even have that.

In post 2606 on page 66 of the FDR thread I give a suggestion for the wording of the question. Point the physicsforum group there perhaps.
Specifically, I suggested that Tf ask; "I have a question about the EEPROM data storage used in flight data recorders. I have been reading about the FDR found in the Pentagon after the crash there on Sept 11/01, and that it seems to be missing the last several seconds of data. That would represent several full frames of data. If the FDR was working properly right up to impact then how can more than just the last word in the last frame be lost? After all, the previous words would have already been recorded and set. I know that transients can corrupt an EEPROM and obviously the power down procedure was not carried out but how could that explain a loss of up to 6 seconds without completely corrupting everything?" |
