On June 1, 2009, Air France Flight 447 crashed into the Atlantic, killing all 228 people on board. The following article originally ran in December 2011, months after AF447's black box recordings surfaced and spurred new revelations. On the 11th anniversary of the crash, we're looking back at the mysterious tragedy and republishing the article in full. For more than two years, the disappearance of
25. RE: The 6 Most Lethal Aircraft in History P.S. The (JUG) P47, is credited with the destruction of 11,800 aircraft, 9,000 trains, and 160,000 vehicles. Finally, I have seen recounts of pilots who flew both P51, & P 47, and every one, without exception, asserted that they preferred the Jug it they had to go to war again. 24. RE: The 6 Most Lethal Aircraft in History All the aircraft menti
It's January, which means time has come for the electronics industry to release all its secrets for the year ahead. That means plenty of announcements at the Consumer Electronics Show beginning Saturday in Las Vegas, and then at Apple's Macworld the week after that. (We'll be live at both with video and analysis, so bookmark here and here now.) Last year, Apple upstaged pretty much every other com
1. Patch A Radiator Hose Steam hissing from a ruptured radiator hose? Here’s a relatively easy, temporary fix with duct tape. Wait for the engine to cool off. Open the hood and locate the source of the steam—i.e., the rupture (A). Clean and dry the area around the fissure; the tape won’t stick as well on a damp, dirty surface. Wrap 2 to 3 in. of duct tape around the hose over the hole; press fir
At the preseason tryouts for the U.S. Boomerang Team in Greenfield, Mass., one figure stands out among the hacky sack players and pizza delivery guys gathering in the soccer fields, limbering up their throwing arms. Eric Darnell, a soft-spoken 62-year-old Quaker and backyard inventor from South Stafford, Vt., has brought 60 of his latest handmade boomerang prototypes, along with several notebooks,
REALITY: It's Safer In the Back. The funny thing about all those expert opinions: They're not really based on hard data about actual airline accidents. A look at real-world crash stats, however, suggests that the farther back you sit, the better your odds of survival. Passengers near the tail of a plane are about 40 percent more likely to survive a crash than those in the first few rows up front.
The software giant has built a new touchscreen computer—a coffee table that will change the world. Go inside its top-secret development, then forget the keyboard and mouse: The next generation of computer interfaces will be hands-on. Microsoft's corporate campus is a sprawling affair, with more than 100 buildings scattered over 261 acres. To make sense of it all, you have to navigate by numbers. T
Click to enlarge The leading candidates to deliver Prompt Global Strike's swift knockout punch are the sub-launched Trident II missile and the X-51, a cruise missile launched from a B-52 and boosted to supersonic speed by a rocket. A scramjet takes it hypersonic. Every strategist remembers Aug. 20, 1998, when the USS Abraham Lincoln Battle Group, stationed in the Arabian Sea, launched Tomahawk cr
Bendable concrete is 40 percent lighter than regular concrete and 500 times more resistant to cracking under pressure. (Photograph by ACE-MRL) The nickname for Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC) is self-explanatory: bendable concrete. Specially coated microscopic polymer fibers slide past each other instead of snapping under stress, so ECC bends without breaking. The material has been used t
Driver-Monitoring System Instead of just watching for hazards on the road, Toyota's latest precrash safety system is turning its attention to the most likely cause of an accident: you. This spring, Lexus models in Japan will be available with a camera mounted on the steering column that uses facial-recognition software to determine whether you're watching the road. If not, and the front-mounted r
