RE: The future of civil aviation
Errr, these would be the same Russians that so successfully gassed so many hostages this week, wouldn’t they?
DC, as for wild erotic fancies, don’t you? (This is a family forum so I don’t want to bring sex into it!!)
I must confess, the actual mechanics of the gassing mechanism have not been thought out, but if the gas containers were designed into the aircraft so that they were pressurised to the same atmosphere as the cabin, and the ducting length was kept as short as possible, I imagine the gas would remain effective regardless of altitude. It might be that the Russian system excluded the gas feed system from the cabin pressurisation.
