Maybe waiting for the pane to go down while it’s out of range of any possible radar? It seems to be in the middle of the ocean and maybe that was where he planned to more or less run out of fuel 🤷‍♂️

Maybe it could also have been the first officer if he prepared really well? There seems to be a lot of evidence confirming a well planned route with all communication disabled.

Anyway, it clearly looks like it is a suicide that he tried to mask as an accident. It’s the worst way to go, taking all these casualties. It wouldn’t be the first one, but definitely the best covered up so far.

No, the html file itself. It just contains elements like a paragraph, image, list, table,… just like a word document.

A word document can also contain a script, as can html pages. It’s why I thought these two were the closest match. Nobody is going to call those programming languages.

A PowerPoint, word document or even a text file or picture. There is only a description in the file of what it holds and it’s up to the program that reads it, how it will visualize or interpret it.

A word document or PDF would be the closest.

That is true. I do think we should retire pure ICE cars as soon as possible. If you need to do long distances, a hybrid that could be converted might be a good intermediate solution. If you only need a car sporadically, a car sharing platform with electric cars is a good solution. These already exist in big eu cities. Ofc good and adorable public transport is nr 1.

Decreasing the amount of cars would decrease emissions short and long term more than the current shift to EV and would make shifting easier as there are just fewer to replace.

I put very minimal calculation which at least puts it around the same order and linked a report by Volvo where they try to count the whole cycle of a car with the emissions of the production and transport of used parts and fuels.

On current electricity mix, an electric car is only slightly better on a CO2 emissions. With only renewables, it can be 2x better.

But the statement that in China it’s at least better than a Prius is just wrong. Until renewables take a serious share of the grid, a smaller well engineered hybrid is not worse.

A Prius will definitely pollute less than the typical SUV electric cars on a coal grid.

Cause:

• Efficiency of coal power plant and all losses are as bad as ICE cars. The EVs do thermal->mechanical->electrical->grid->battery->wheels and if you count them all up, is not better than an EV

• Prius is designed for low drag unlike an SUV

• Prius had regenerative braking like an EV

But just the numbers:

• Prius is rated at 94g/kg

• Coal 950g/kwh

• Volvo c40 0.2kwh/km or 190g/km even without losses

I took Volvo cause they published a report with a good compare ev and ICE https://www.volvocars.com/images/v/-/media/market-assets/intl/applications/dotcom/pdf/c40/volvo-c40-recharge-lca-report.pdf

Even with the current EU energy mix, it takes 77’000 km to be better than ICE, so arguably better. On coal electricity, they are worse. And this is comparing equally sized cars, a Prius will do better.

Coal power plant efficiency is less than 40%. You’d also not get 90% of the outlet on the wheels. There is also a lot of loss on the grid, but there is also on the production of fuel. The two pollute almost the same.

Burning coal however is a lot worse for the air quality.
