    Most accidents are caused by incompetent drivers. Quite often I wonder how these drivers get their licenses.

    Genetic Link to Long Covid Discovered.

    Very true. Both Myocarditis, and Pericarditis are new diseases introduced by the Covid vaccines. Maybe they should recount as more than 14 Billion vaccine doses have been used by the end of the last year and still continuing. :ROFLMAO:

    China ගියපු මිට්ටනි. මේ ඇත්තද?

    There are very cheap China deals but they are sponsored by the Chinese Government & industries and various vendors. These are mostly organised shopping tours combined sight seeing + hotels. They will waste your time taking you around where the prices are triple the market prices. The above deal...

    China ගියපු මිට්ටනි. මේ ඇත්තද?

    China is not only Shanghai... Been to China a few times before. I am not keen to travel to China at all. However, my wife likes to see some parts not visited before and got a quotation from a travel agent based in China, last week. Copied below. This is to travel during the best season. Travel...

    Air India Pilot තප්පරේ කථාවත් බොරුවක් වගේ

    Don't just believe these pilots. They don't know what's behind the switch. The switch itself is a MIL-std switch manufacured by Honeywell and several aircraft manufacturers use it. Even on some helicopters. Highly improbable that it's the switch. My son did some searching and said he couldn't...

    NYP reports... “I have heard from several Air India pilots who told me he had some depression and mental health issues,” said Mohan Ranganathan, a leading Indian aviation safety expert. “He had taken time off from flying in the last three to four years. He had taken medical leave for that.”...

    Vitamin D check karaganilla

    FYI - Copied from a post I made in March 2025. I have written all about Vitamin D on several earlier posts. I have posted several threads and comments on Vitamin D since Covid era. Please read. <snip> As I mentioned before living in SL or in the Sun doesn't help much. With dark skins the...

    Have you seen anyone explaining how this is possible? Please let me know. PS: Just a bitflip on anybody's brain is surely capable of this. :unsure:

    It's NOT only Boeing that uses these Honeywell TL series switches. Many aircraft manufacturers do use these and even used on helicopters. If there was an issue regarding this switches it would have come to light long before.

    Quite nice if you make Thai style dishes... PS: Like cassava (manioc) , unprocessed fresh bamboo shoots contain cyanogenic glycosides. You need to slice them thinly into strips and boil in lightly salted water for eight to ten minutes. Discard the cooking water after use. This will make them...

    අරූ ප්ලෙන් 🛫 එක උස්සපු ගමන් එන්ජින් එකට තෙල් දේන කරාමේ වහලා,....... ඉන්දියන් උන්ගේ හැකියාව තමා ඉට්ටින්. වැඩි දෙයක් බලා පොරොත්තුවෙන්න එපා.🥵

    It's called the E2 Enhanced Take Off System. When we can land a probe millions of kms away on a remote asteroid and bring back samples to the Earth why it's not possible to devise a system for an aircraft to take off? The pilot will always be there because human lives are involved. But the...

    There are several aircraft that are auto take-off capable. But not in commercial use currently. However, Embraer (Brazil) plans to get approval soon to operate from select airports. Yes, surely the EICAS system will display alerts of fuel cut-off on the HUD/Cockpit display. But it might not...

    AI plane crash preliminary report reveals engine fuel switch changes

    A preliminary report on the Air India crash that killed 260 people in Ahmedabad last month says the plane's engine fuel switches were flipped off within seconds of each other, starving the engines, three seconds after take-off. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner immediately began to lose thrust and...
