You know that something similar _really _happened to one V-22 Osprey !? They have hydraulics for every single propeller blade which results in a very narrow structure in the propeller hubs. By accident one hydraulic tube was rubbing against an electrical cable and started leaking. The resulting loss of hydraulic pressure was accidentally misinterpreted !! by some computer on board which indicated an error to the pilots where the reboot of a certain computer system is listed as the required procedure. After restart this computer, which apparently is tied to the FCM, accidentally misinterpreted !! the current flight attitude and lead to actuator controls which crashed the plane :-(( Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
