Ukrainian troops totaled up to 1,740 servicemen in a day…

Estimates vary, WW2 military dead, some say 20 million/6 years, more or less. Assuming that, the daily murder rate was roughly 9 thousand. Are we in WW3 yet?  Sure making a fine effort to get there…

….when both Russkies and Krauts were exhausted, and build Zion undisturbed on the ashes of the world…  I suppose so. Incidentally, Hess, according to Molotov, was a pederast – and Molotov says that the charming little cadre contained several fine fellows of that disposition. One may speculate on the correspondence of manifestation of cruel and abusive perversions and the  more overt features of feudalism, capitalism, fascism, and the end-stages of vice… imho they fit like skin. All of these are denials of the good, and they line up on the chart as descent into Hell.

We note that Hess was murdered. Only one logic explains that…to keep him from speaking what really happened.

Geewhiz… shall we conclude that there’s a Policy of Murder in zone N ?

Gholam Hossein Esmaili, who was on the third helicopter in the president’s convoy, details the moments before Ebrahim Raisi’s chopper disappeared from view.

Same tale.

Indeed. AHH posted the transcript above in this dialogue. I made copy.

The NOTAM relating to splash zone off San Diego is still operative, also Barrents Sea up north, iirc.

Ah betcha the nazi navy is desperately looking for the Ruskie submarines off both coasts of nazi inter marium.

Dear emerson, thanks. Me too. Remarking that machine design in the previous era, from which we came, generally was in the direction of near infinite life cycle…as in almost entirely rebuildable. Modern machine design focuses on rent extractive profitable in the very short term one-shot machines that cannot be repaired and don’t last long after they are sold… Cousin Brother Smedley would say that’s a racket 😉 Something that pretends to be something it is not. A 1940 motorcycle can be re-built many, many, times…and can be copied with fairly simple machine tools in pretty basic shops… The Koreans and the Japanese, for example, copied the old Harley…to the extent that many parts are interchangeable with the US built examples. And the Brit-built Lister 6-1 engine, copied long ago by bare-foot wrights in India… (I have an Indian 6-1, and it’s better than the English grand-daddy!)

I am not a helio fella, and not a pilot… I did ground school for Cessna 152 and flew a few times VFR with a licensed pilot observing… many years ago…I found flying entirely easy and natural, and if I’d had 10 hours and enough money I’d have soloed…I really like stall recoveries and landings! (and I think I could solo to-day under good conditions.) However I was very interested in the machines. Speaking of ice, icing… of helio ice problems I know little. But in prop aircraft ice can form on the prop. It’s more or less symmetrical, so the balance is not terrible. Thrust suffers a lot though. After a little while, the ice flies off one blade before it flies off the other – then the vibration is terrible, and pretty soon the ice falls off that blade too. Meantime the ice changes the profile of the blade and makes the propeller efficiency really bad. The process repeats until things change.

Helios have rotors, they too must ice. However an iced rotor that throws would, I am pretty sure tear the machine apart. Helios are in dynamic metastatic struggle between the stresses of centrifugal and gravity and drag forces. Essentially they’re trying to explode. Recall also the tail rotor may also ice up and toss ice and create problems similar to those encountered in airplanes.  I have been told by a neighbor who ran (he’s dead now) a very profitable helio charter company at Anoxia Field…. dozens of birdies….that chopper drivers need many more hours to achieve competence than is necessary in fixed wing.

In aircraft like DC3, C54, etc, prop ice sometimes makes big dents in airplane, probably even comes through the skin…it certainly would in a fabric aircraft.

The condition at the locus in quo sure looked like icing conditions. If ice was a factor that would, maybe, explain the other two helios bugging off. Better one chopper down than three… pilots 1st responsibility is to the passengers, then to the machine, then other stuff… The radio silence? I spoke of the HF aircraft band and posted a url relevant to that… Radio silence may have been procedural according to policy ?? I mean they got Yamamoto … eh? Flyers make target in war-time.

Age…depends on maintenance and hours…just as in a boat. Eventually the airframe times out from fatigue…aluminum tends to work harden and crack…operating temperature probably matters too, fatigues faster in colder weather iirc… but in the example it looks like a toss up between vertigo in white out (I assure you that “up” is indistinguishable from “down”… pilot must trust his instruments and nothing else).  Ice can foul instruments too… 😉 Between vertigo and ice…maybe both.  Of course the big technical problem is hitting the mountain.

Are there any experienced chopper drivers out there who would be so kind as to speak to these musings? Please speak!

Some possibly silly notes on the affairs. 😉

Remarking of MQ-9 flying spy robot and the nazi claim that it stopped flying due to “technical problems”. We previously inquired about the root meaning of “technical” in the context of the Russian December 2021 “ultimatum” . iirc the key meaning is, includes, action or movement, as in a flowing creek, etc. Thus, for example, an explosion is highly “technical”…and we assume that was the “technical problem” Nr 1 with the special birdie. The technical problem Nr 2 being the lack of movement when the junk stopped moving, as in finished in silence on the ground, bang!  Big technical problem came to smashing end. US words highly risible and appreciated!

Noting Cornel West (RT) speaks of “US Empire” in decay and must be “dismantled”. Remarking that “dismantling” – such a process necessitates a master in charge of the project. Decay is another matter, it’s an auto-destruct process. Now then, what agency might be engaged to “dismantle”, to be the boss of the project? Well… Quiz is not necessary, is it? Speaking of unified Heartland and the expertise gained in 404 and many other loci.  😉  Indeed, does Brother West conflate “decay” and “dismantle”? Which is to say that dismantle is probably mistaken for decay. imho we observe that decay cannot go further and assume that dismantle is what we see, while decay was what we saw previously. Sometimes decades happen in weeks, somebody said 😉

Palestinian with nice “home-made” rifle make maybe 700 meter hit… remarking that it would be interesting to ask a US Marine sniper to make his own rifle and ammunition…right down to the brass casing… and duplicate the shot. (Stumpy laughed at the thought!). (aside… a fella I knew made his own rifles and, being poor, used one in competition for the prizes, turkey… meat. Until he was asked by the other fellas to stop attending the competitions…he was too good, noone would compete against him because it was pointless.) Remarking that when men are trying to kill you it’s difficult to shoot accurately…the Palestinian fella must attend the Russian and Chinese games when the action is complete. He’s very very good. A champ!

Noting that democracy and Communism share a common set, and that’s obvious...fascism on the other hand… 😉

Splash? zone near San Diego… re-entry of booster story sound like bs to me…as does the assumption that it is not a launch zone… Ruskie U Boot most quiet    😉  And Bi-don loves surprises! (Well, doanever’ybody?)

Is the 18-5-2024 Der Spiegle cover real? Remarking that indeed many things have been learned…particularly by the Rest of the World, especially by the old allies of the Heartland. The nazis, well, it’s ideology…and that prevents learning, does it not? Speaking of auto-destruct 😉

Finally, of Comrade Stalin (I have been also reading Molotov) I see that there is opinion about poisoning. It would not be the first time… but the actual evidence is not known to me…speaking also of the terror in nazi zone EU, with respect to Brother Fico and the inspiring of servile obedience by force nazi… Are we treated to be also witness to tactic poisoning as terrorism, coming soon to a theater nearby? Thinking of Fidel…who, btw, said that he always kept a .45 handy… 😉 and who failed to die for a very very long time. Keeping that .45, ah reckonz, served also as a reminder to be thoughtful about what a fella might eat.

Time for some chores in cool period of day…
