Pi x flight# = the road to...

[orangehuggy]

from Wikipedia:

Several aircraft operating under the flight number of 191 have crashed. These include Prinair Flight 191, Delta Air Lines Flight 191, X-15 Flight 191, and American Airlines Flight 191 which was then the most deadly commercial airline crash in U.S. history. Most recently, Comair Flight 5191 crashed on August 27, 2006 in Kentucky. The significance here is that the 5 in 5191 is just a computer designator indicating that it is a connection carrier for Delta Air Lines. In the Comair system and the ATC system, this flight was referred to as 191.

Pi x 191 +
Pi x 19.1 +
Pi x 1.91 =

666

ooooh

I bet I could find a pattern of flight numbers that have crashed that when you add them together on a digital calculator and turned it upside down, it said boobs.
That would accomplish just about as much as this novel equation.

[orangehuggy]

go on, I like mathematical oddities and statistical coincidences

.....turned it upside down, it said boobs.

Would expect a picture posted next to it as well.......





for reference purposes of course.

Nothing wrong with the # 666. In fact that was the number i raced with in tne AMA when i raced pro motocross.


The fact that several flight #191 have become smoking holes in the ground and the fact that if you do an unrelated math equation with the result equaling 666 means "ZERO"

[orangehuggy]

ok, forget Pi, you're right it is just a meaningless number.

666/(666/191)=...

now thats freaky!

(ok i know, but there are lies, damn lies... its been a slow day)

Given that you said you like mathematical oddities, then:

pi*191+pi*19.1+pi*1.91=pi(191+19.1+1.91)=pi*212.01

pi is an irrational number, and 212.01 is a rational number.

A product of an irrational number and a rational number is always another irrational number, never a whole number.

That's so far for 666.

I regard myself as a rational person and my wife as an irrational person. It is said that we are all merely numbers in this universe, therefore I must be a rational number and my wife an irrational number.

My wife, however, makes excellent pies. They are often divided by two and go into each of us perfectly with nothing remaining. To me pi=r squared means that each pie I eat makes my radius increase by a significant proportion.

We both work for the ambulance service. To obtain our services you need to dial 999.

........which is 666 upside down ! Think about it before you call

999!? What the hell kinda freaky, backwards country you live in!?

Agreed - across the pond, we use the much more sensible 911. Oh wait - don't we already have a thread going about this.
