That actually doesn't look out of place!

Due to an fault in the camera browser, a potato was used instead.

Frigate. The Navy designates ships with acronyms and BB is battleship, CV carrier, CG missile cruiser, and FF = Frigate!

Perfect!

Call me paranoid but the first thing I do taking a seat in an airplane is to read the emergency egress manuals. The last time I actually flew was in elementary school but I never forgot what was in those manuals!

How could they miss the runway outright? I'm thinking it would be blatantly obvious the a/c was on the wrong glide slope coming in too hot. Should have aborted and went around.

It looks like it pancaked in the drink at a low speed possibly still in its landing configuration and close to its landing speed.

The issue of aircraft disintegration on impact with the water usually comes about if the a/c came in with one wing low (causing the aircraft to flip), too fast (outright structural failure)…

It's likely the horizontal stabilizer hit the water and was dragged in it. This assumes the aircraft went in the drink in its usual nose-high landing attitude (and full flaps etc etc) to touchdown with as low an airspeed as possible.

Too high altitude and approach speed comes to mind, assuming they're on VFR (Visual Flight Rules). It's likely they didn't follow the correct glide path.

There was only once in my entire life when I rode in a classic Benz on a road trip and it didn't matter that the air conditioning did not work (blower only) and it was 100 degree F heat outside.

I fell asleep about 1/4 of the 300 mile or so journey and DID NOT WAKE UP until near the destination city.

So comfortable!

Agree. And considering I never ever touch all the 500 buttons of those spaceship consoles... I don't need them!

Minimalist design is good.

Wow that sounded like a big cargasm LOL

Bring on the topless protests lol!

I had a Soviet wristwatch once and the winding was so weak it could only power itself for about 25 minutes. If you forgot to wind it... every other minute it went dead.

Angry bird!!

Yeah, from this perspective the engine bay looks intact and frame (mostly) alright.

Easy, he just dumped auxiliary power to the structural integrity field at the last moment :)

Indeed, if they dethroned the Veyron, there'd be the Rebel Alliance at their doorstep the next morning.

I like the SSC cars. A lot. They're just (relatively) simple and very effective at the task!

At least, that cartoon girl is sexy and thus nice to look at.

And she's definitely not boring. I wish top speed record competitions were this pretty.

Where did you get that Romulan quantum singularity drive from? The Ferengi Exchange?!
