El Cajon Learjet Crash:
As much as Evan's disdain for traditional airmanship bugs me, the following things might have prevented this crash:
1) Radar/GPS/Loran/RNAV/INS/VORADFIntegrator/terrain photo database Synthetic Vision..."You are cleared to land your plane wherever however you want as long as you don't hit anything which you have a really good, and double(triple) confirmed depiction on you windscreen".
2. A magenta line (with altitude) generated by a little extra computer code using system 1.
3. An autopilot that does any number of the things below:
-Follows said magenta line from #2.
-Controls speed and power to eliminate stalls for almost all practical purposes.
Right or wrong- all of this stuff kind of exists now (especially speed control). Maybe we beef up speed control to almost always prevent stalls?
Only $ stands in the way of implementation.Les règles de l'aviation de base découragent de longues périodes de dur tirer vers le haut.
