Cool So, what did we learn?

So, what did we learn?

1, The drain pipes are not big enough, they are easily blocked, Not just on a 747 but it appears most aircraft suffer from this defect.

2, A 70kg NiCad battery will supply emergency power for 45 mins.

Anyone got a suggestion how we can make things better?

(clue.... think bigger)
