Cool

Hi,

It is my belief that Boeing aircraft are more heavily constructed than the certification requirements dictate ...
It is also within the boundaries of good manufacturing practice that when a hull is exposed to excessive "G" (crash) that there is a regularity to the fractures ... that would be considered at the design stage, similar to the expected deformity of a car after impact.
Interesting comment .. but nothing to do with the documentary points.
I suppose you don't seen the documentary for post such comment.
