Qantas 747/Yellow alert!

[UShadItComing]

"We recovered a valve from an oxygen cylinder," Neville Blyth, a senior investigator with the Australian Transport and Safety Bureau, told a news conference yesterday. "It is likely that that valve is from the missing cylinder."

CASA said metal fatigue, a failure of the regulator valve on the cylinder, something hitting and puncturing it, or the cylinder becoming too hot, were possible causes of such a cylinder exploding.

Passengers were last night getting back their luggage. It had remained in Manila so inspectors could ensure the blast was not caused by the contents of suitcases and bags.

Passengers have been warned that some luggage has been damaged by debris from the exploding tank.

Whether or not they have found a valve is questionable now Rob. If they did then there would be little doubt that it would have been the cause. I quite expected that they would produce info to show it was a gas cylinder because they had already introduced that story.

But then knowing that you people would rather accept conspiracy theories such as the Martians being responsible for the WTC attacks, it's not puzzling at all that you wouldn't want to accept possibilities.

Actually more obvious when you refuse to accept possibilities that it shows your personal agenda is most important to you.

My agenda on this right from the start was in the interest of stimulating a conversation on the topic. If we hear no more I won't be disappointed in the least.

I wouldn't discount terrorism... however, just from very limited experience, I worked for a short time at a plant where they made oxygen tanks and propane tanks. Oxygen tanks can very well explode. It's very rare, but yet it is possible.

If I'm not mistaken, it was an oxygen tank that caused the explosion on Apollo 13 yes?

Based on the picture given, it looks to me like there is quite a bit of flammable material where this explosion happened. A typical incendiary would catch some stuff on fire would it not? I don't see any typical charring or smoke streaks. Look like shrapnel damage, what one might expect from a non-incendiary metal tank explosion.

One thing is for certain. The air transport industry guards it's consumer confidence very well. They will find out what happened no matter what the answer is.

They just announced that they did find a valve. In the story that I linked.

The majority of people who are posting here regularly do not think the US government was behind 9/11.

Actually more obvious when you refuse to accept possibilities that it shows your personal agenda is most important to you.

All I said was let them do their investigation. They are doing it, and nothing points to terrorism. Why do you keep insisting that it is with no evidence?

My agenda on this right from the start was in the interest of stimulating a conversation on the topic. If we hear no more I won't be disappointed in the least.

Stimulating conversation about what? If it was or was not terrorism? We can ramble on for days about this, but until the investigation is done, it is all pointless.

.....I think you are thinking of ValuJet and the Chemical Oxygen Generators it was carrying as cargo.

I thought Value Jet was Jet blue and they changed there name after it happened? maybe it was some other name they changed to.

I had to edit that cuz I said Value Jew for some reason lol

So if you think it's pointless then don't worry about it Rob. Are you becoming paranoid about me being able to slip something past you now?

Slip meaningless conjecture by me? There is no evidence that points to anything terror related, why are you so quick to jump to that conclusion?

This is a lot easier when you include references to what you are talking about.

I was going to leave the link out to annoy you a little more and then I decided that I would have to suffer the derision of the other numbnuts so I decided it wasn't worth it.

This is supposed to be fun Rob, get with me on this stuff.

Wow. Ever since I defeated his amusing claim that people loved his socialist insurance, his posts have become even more and more lacking of thought and logical theory. I think his ambiguous 'everybody loves ICBC, was the pinnacle of thought for him, and now he's just spiraling downward.
