Help ~ Need to get rid of 'Unobtaimum'.
 

The American Helicopter Society's 2004 request for proposals is for a; "Design for Certification Mountain Rescue Helicopter".

One of the requirements is; "No unobtainium allowed in the design!".

Finding out what 'unobtainium' is, so that it can be removed, is proving to be very difficult. The Web is not much help. The first site is very rude and the other two sites are probably too expensive.

Does anyone know how to get rid of unwanted 'unobtainum'?

:confused: :confused:

DJ,
It sez "No unobtainium allowed" so there is no need to remove it!

Send them a "Stereophonic Nostril Tuner" and see whether they have shielding against "Transphonic induction"!

The difficulty is proving that it’s not present. As with all certification activities, the paperwork required is enormous. Additionally, the kit required is going to make production line start-up costs eye-wateringly expensive. Magneto-sensitised gravitonic induction - required in all Unobtainium investigation, is in and of itself an expensive process, but combined with the auto-excited eddy echo technology necessary for production work, it’ll be a killer. Initial and recurrent training for the line workers, plus the health and safety aspects of removing it, if it is in fact found, well…

They don’t want Unobtainium in the aircraft because of the structural and physiological effects it has. Recent research has shown that these effects can be countered using depleted uranium. So, rather than trying to prove that there is no Unobtanium in the aircraft, it’d be far better to make the cabin floor out of depleted uranium. If anybody asks, tell them that I said it was alright. That should do the trick.

More pills please nurse, the aliens are back.

Perhaps an exemption could be granted by the FAA if there was an "OFF" switch to isolate the Unobtainium - a bit like a pilot with no Instrument Rating flying VFR in an IFR equipped aircraft and promising not to use all the fancy stuff ? :hmm:

....at least they didnt ban Ezilyobtanium which is far more common..........:ok:

Allotium is another good alternative!

There's a bag of unobtanium for sale on EBAY. :E

A humorous paradox
 

The American Helicopter Society's annual student design competition reads, in part; "No unobtainium allowed in the design.". Paradoxically, every cover of its quarterly journal shows Leonardo daVinci's helicopter, which required a large amount of unobtainum. :uhoh:

unobtanium - Is this what they haven't found in Iraq.....:cool:

Since Unobtanium is readily available from sources such as eBay I would think that the TSA and FBI would want to secure any and all supplies of this rare material. The reason being is that some terrorists could get their hands on it and construct a dirty bomb. If they did then the effluent from the explosion can spread throughout the United States and contaminate any NASA project that forbade the use of Unobtanium.
