    Okay if you are talking about sound waves, they’re not really waves in the traditional sense. They are waves because it tracks the compactness/vibrations.

    The reason why sound transfers faster in solids is because the atoms are more rigid due to, you know, being a solid.

    If you pump enough energy into it, won’t you start doing funny things?

    Ie: if you put enough energy into a rigid material there’s a point where it stops being able to take the force and breaks

    I’m also not a scientist and also am the wrong type of engineer too so…

    I’d imagine if you compact things faster than the energy can leave the immediate area, you’d run into funny phenomenons with the temperature/pressure/state of matter histogram.

    Which brings me to my question of what is a shock wave if not a sound wave?









  • Unless you work for the FAA, NHSTA, Boeing, or relevant Indian equivalents, I’m going to have to ask you to stop speculating.

    If it’s spring based, and one side failed, it’s possible that next to no force will flip it to one side, but it takes the expected amount of force to move it in the other direction.

    These determinations always require more knowledge than is publicly available.

    I’d like to remind you Air India has a notorious record of bad maintenance in the case of AI101 in 2018. I’d like to further point out that they landed that plane and demonstrated that Air India has hired very skilled pilots.



  • I’m not the person you replied to and I’m not familiar with India’s certificate process, but the FAA is a stickler about mental health - even for a PPL on a class 3. It doesn’t matter if you’re getting treatment or not. The fact that you have any history of mental illness is huge. It seems really fucking stupid to me, especially if you are getting help.

    I hope to god indias certificate procedures aren’t as ridiculous as the FAA
