I saw the Mercedes EC145 at Airbus in Grand Prairie at the delivery center. It really wasn’t anything to write about. No one seemed to care at Heli-Expo.

The devastation is already there even before the oil industry got there. The tarsands can be found pretty much everywhere, just dig down about 10 feet. Most of the rivers in the area have oil floating on top just due to the natural erosion from the river.

I worked with the folks at Phoenix Heli-flight on a project. They operate one of the largest fleet of helicopters in Fort McMurray. Here’s an article from the owner of the company on the situation. Hope they stay safe. http://www.verticalmag.com/news/article/F…

I think one of the key thing was he also took out Ricciardo when he hit Vettel the first time. #1 rule is not to take out your teammate.

He could have made it. Dumbass wasn’t looking far enough down the road. He was probably only looking at the moving water and following the current.

It doesn’t have a radio just a CD changer. It also doesn’t appear to have an aftermarket radio or sat-nav fitted.

The long tail was created for the sole purpose of meeting the regulations to race LeMans.

They should also sue Daimler for making a car that can go that fast. They should get politicians to mandate speed limiters to limit the maximum speed of any car to 85 mph since that is the highest speed limit in the US. No one needs a car that can go faster than that.

The girl and her family most likely won’t have that kind of money.

COBOL is still commonly used in government offices.

I know. Which is why they have toned down the symbol because most Volvo owners are women.

But that’s average speed. Factor in takeoff and landing, he had to be going supersonic. I think they are stretching the truth.

You are forgetting that Volvo’s symbol is the symbol for iron.

The families can sue all they want, but SCOTUS ruled in Warren vs. DC that cops are under no obligation to serve. They can stand there and watch you die.

Because it is funnier to keep going and see what else gets destroyed.

This kind of stuff happens more often then you think. A friend of a friend told me when he was with the 82nd Airborne on a jump, he was day dreaming as he was floating down. He forgot to release he gear prior landing. So his entire pack and radio hit the ground full force. When they met back up, they asked him where…

What they didn’t do is what any pilot would have done for self preservation, pull the yoke all the way back to the stops.

This doesn’t surprise me. Even when I was in college back in the late 90's, my buddies that were involved in the Future Car competitions built a hybrid Ford Taurus that was doing 0-60 in the 6 sec range, got like 80 mpg. Wasn’t really cost effective though with the amount of money they spent.

You can open the engine cover.You just need the special tool shown in the video.

There is also the disparity of force, 3 on 1, which would justify legal use of deadly force.
