recon 16 said:I was recently watching a Discovery Channel special: Flight 93: The Flight That Fought Back when they were recreating (with actors) when the terrorists took over the cockpit of Flight 93, the narrarator (Kiefer Sutherland says: "The highjackers quickly, either kill or incapacitate Captain Jason Dahl and First Officer Leroy Homer" That fact that they did not know is completely understandable, because all we have is voice recordings. But what made me think is, we have satalites in the sky that are cable of transmitting HUMUNGUS amounts of data, we have cameras that are small enough to be placed into cigarette lighters (ive seen a private investigator use one), most new planes have some sort of satalite uplink, people all over the world have webcams set up (that shows you how easy it is),
Why don't planes have cameras (even low quality) in the cockpit, or even thru out the plane?
With todays technology it would be so possible, heck I'm sitting in a hammock hanging of my backporch righting this, with no wires attached to my computer. This just consumer equipment, big industries have satalite uplinks that could transmit this data. Even it that is not possible we now have drives that size of my thumb that can hold upwards of 32gb (and in the near future 64gb or so ive heard) which can be transformed easily to hold data from a "pin-hole" camera, much like the blackboxes (primitive IMO).
Though it may not prevent that actual attacks (obviously) if installed on September 11, it have alot of today's unanswered questions, answered. Dont you think? Please comment!
instead of talking politics lets talk technology... please stay on topic^^^
