Fölöttünk (Szigetszentmiklós) meg 1 perccel később, a FR szerint most 127 fokos irányba tart.Most röppent el a házunk felett.
Most 167 fokon repül Izmirtől ÉK-re, ha ezt az irányt tartja akkor az Kairóba vezet, de én is inkább Beirutra tippelnék.
Úgy néz ki Szaúdia, Rijad lett belőle, ott szűnt meg a jel.Ebből Irak lessz

Az gyönyörű.
Rosszabb helyen konkrétan ki sem gyulladhatott volna - a centroplán alatt direktben. Az egy dolog, hogy minden létező csővezeték, kábel, szenzor miegymás kuka, de a kondirendszert átnyalni egy tűz után maga egy móka, futóakna szintén necces.
Az igazi baj viszont szemlátomást a fő teherviselő elemek hőterhelése. Mivel ez egy felsőszárnyas (tipikus anhedral) szerkezet, így az itt lévő összes megerősített csomópontot ki kell szedni, NDT vizsgálatnak alávetni (UT meg eddy current legalább) - ami a repülőgép lényegében totális szétbombázása. Ha pedig azok kiterjedten roncsolódtak/kilágyultak, akkor gyakorlatilag úgy jár, mint a Bonhomme Richard. Mehet a kukába, bár ha nagyon kell a sárkány, akkor utángyártják az egész középső szekciót. De az piszok drága lesz.
Ez egy D Check szintű meló alaphangon, nem beszélve az anyagköltségről.
