I think that the engine that experienced a brief exposure to supersonic flow got a sudden 'decrease' in engine thrust, and the pilots threw their heads onto the side that was opposite to the malfunctioning engine. Can an actual areo engineer confirm my theory?
The system that should be used for any maglev system, is of course the American developed Inductrack http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductrack, because of the lack of a need to have active magnetised rails, or in fact any permanent magnets in the rails themselves, making this concept feasible. I read another comment above that stated that Public Transport is considered evil in America, is this because it would take Jobs from Japanese Automakers, or Saudi Oil Workers? (Ok, it's not that bad), but it isnt fair, or make sense having to make everyone buy a car, in the name of capitalism, when there are more resource efficient ways to do things (Discalimer: Im not a communist, I hate communism). Anyway a third point is that a cost analysis should be done to compare the cost of a Maglev system to future types of transport, like the BWB http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blended_Wing_Body. My $0.02
What's with this "planning on both sides of the atlantic" business, India is not on the Atlantic Ocean, contrary to Mr Columbus's imaginative Thoughts. Come on... pfft
Yes the teacher does seem to have a problem distinguishing between renewable and non-renwewables, at the limit, all resources are non-renewable. So her definition does seem to have something to do with the human lifespan

Maybe thats why the U.S. is the leading force in most areas of science today, just maybe, maybe its a coincidence, maybe.

Someones probabaly already said this, but simple arithmetic errors in an age of cheap computing is unacceptable 500000000/7600=65789
I Started with C, went to ASM, and now waiting to do java, but i like C alot
