"listen to what ArnieG has to say..."
I got that talk in print. To a large part rubbish. Because it is in my own area of specaialist competence it was sad to read. Many statements made are wrong, e.g. that PWR:s dont't have containment venting systems, In Sweden I know of three PWR:s which have venting systems connected to venturi scrubbers.
The problems at Fukoshima seems to have been that their "hydrogen recombiners" needed electrical supply to operate. Electricity as assumed to be available from four sources - batteries, diesel generators, perhaps house turbine operation, and perhaps even the main grid. All had to fail during the same time.
I sincerely hope that most of you have better knowledge in the field of aircrafts and flying.
