  • In cliché world yeah… But in reality, not so much. 😀

    It been years… no… decades that smoking have nearly disappeared around me - including in the office.

    I work with hundreds of people and the amount of people smoking can fit one hand. 25 years ago, i needed more than 2 hands to count them. And in my family, nobody starting at my parents generation and younger smokes.

    Same story with wine during lunch. 25 years ago, it was several bottles each day at lunches.

    Today, no more wine bottle and the trend started since easily 15 years now. Only for big occasion and the quantity have decreased a lot.

    People drink more beers now. But far less than wine.






  • You have normally 2 segregated electrical system (1 & 2) with, for each system, several sub-segregation (like primary, secondary, essential, secours with bus bars, contactors that can cut some non-essential systems depending on rules or switch in the overhead panel) and several sources of power (engines, apu, batteries, sometime rat).

    Black boxes don’t have battery (to dangerous, the battery could destroy the recordings when damaged and that would also require specific maintenance) but normally they have several power source. Loosing power like that is strange and could indicate a fire or a maintenance problem (on board batteries should be able to work for at least 40min without engine… but they had a running engine as far as i know… that doesn’t make any sense).

    APU can be run while flying, you must be below a certain flight level to use it (<FL100?).




  • He is one of the root cause of the overspending as he has given a lot of taxes cut (that would have make the balance better) to his very rich friends.

    So don’t tell me he’s trying to balance the budget. He did tell that publicly but of course did the contrary. Look at the balance when he took power several years ago, look now. He was fully in command all this time.

    I paid a lot of taxes not to give gifts to already rich people but for public services. He only cut public services.

    But as he loose control from the population, he want to make us fear of an economic crisis to make old people vote for his party again.







  • First time war?

    It has always been like that and it’s a reason a war should be avoided when you don’t have the power to maintain your military and economic force…

    And it’s exactly why main leaders of the worlds warned russia months before the invasion until the first day of the invasion: “Are you sure? You should not move so many troops near ukraine border for your ’exercice’ Because you have more too loose as a super-power country”

    He didn’t listen so now pay back!
