The basic idea is that latitude is easy: just shoot the north star (or
similar) and account for earth tilt (season) and you got it. Latitude is hard
because you need to know the time precisely. The surface of the earth is
rotating about 1000 mph (at the equator) so if your time is off by one

I suspect the failure mode is no brakes. No "manual reversion" system, the
brake pedal is attached to a spring and a positions sensor, not the hydraulic
system. If the servo fails, no pressure (or too little, or too much) is
applied to the brake pads.

For safety's sake, they programmed it to give you a warning to replace the
servo after 300,000 brake pedal touches or something.
Then a cottage industry popped up for resetting the counter when people didn't
want to pay for servo replacements.
Now MBUSA apparently decided it's cheaper for them

I would expect some very severe liability problems for "brake by wire" systems
if they fail.
I sure a s..t would sue the crap of out MB if I were hit and seriously injured
by a Benz with non-working "brake by wire", it's totally un-necessary and is
far less reliable than simple hydraulics.

So why is MB extending such a long warranty?

I know this because as an original member of the Banned group, I await his

Storms dump record rain in Okla., cause death in TexasPublished: Monday,

A storm system dumped record amounts of rain in parts of Oklahoma and

I helped my Dad make a camper out of two C45 (Twin Beech D18) fuselages.
They had been damaged in wind on the ground. He took the bed off a
Studebaker pickup, welded a frame, and cut and riveted parts together until
we had the camper. My ears are still ringing from bucking all those rivets
55 years
Pretty obvious the builder used a truck chassis of some sort, and it was
diesel powered.
I wonder what the "full story" is, since the original builder has now
passed on. Perhaps, the present owner would be open to communication?
