There's a model in place already from shipping through LRIT and AIS. There the control lies with the flag State and you have a minimum six hour transmission of your LRIT data. What's the equivalent of the flag State for airlines? Presumably ICAO will be looking at mandating an equivalent system in ...

I think we should just make planes that never crash, eliminating the need for 'black boxes' entirely. Having more detailed telemetry and navigation data being transmitted more regularly and reliably to a central location would be easier and more functional than a FDR strapped to the side of the air...

Might as well use this thread for this question. With my shiny new HTC One M8 due to be delivered tomorrow, I have a quandry regarding the expandable storage. Simply put, do I go for the 64GB or the full 128GB? There's a fair old jump in price between the two (Amazon have a deal on a 64GB micro sd ...

Had a great 7 years in the RAF, but despite serving in the first gulf war the nearest I got to combat was a dust up with a load of Paras in Newark. You wouldn't in the crabs BM, though in my cyprus experience the RAF are always about when the TV cameras are rolling. Wouldn't like my laddie to be a ...

Keaton might have made a great winger.

Harold Lloyd on a flank, would be a reasonable call too.

Cavani has been mince, missing two glaring chances. Generally PSG have sat back, switched off and paid the price. They were making chances on the counter before they brought un Marquinos too. Negative, understandable but negative. PSG deserved to lose that, work rate low, looked tired, didn't earn ...

Both those bits of law were brought in to stop a tactic that was seen as too dangerous. They are of historical interest, but people keep trying to claim they fit varous situations in the modern game. These days the wording should be strictly interpreted, not expanded. dread to think of the mayhem a...

Used to do that all the time and never waited till the ball was tapped. Three guys stood in a line, the middle one, slightly ahead, with the ball. He indicated, out of sight of the opposition whether it would go left or right. The remaining forwards were ten yards back, started running, a couple ru...

Cavalry charge was once given against the opposition in an U14s game. It was the first and only time I've ever seen it. You can run once the ball is tapped, but not before. there was a 70's tigers move called 'pinball', basically every big lump in the pack gathered close to the ball, as if ready to...

thought the flying wedge was stopped because, a) the guy at the thin end of the wedge was very prone, and b) if done well is a massive unfair advantage to the attacking team, iirc, the welsh clubs were the first to use these tactic in the early 80's, its was like starting a rolling maul with a runn...

Have to say, kudos to Garces for making the call.

Apparently they've picked it up twice. Would they be able to triangulate from that? It wouldn't be directional so you'd have the same north/south corridor conundrum from the initial satellite data. It should narrow things down at least, and it is far less likely to be from other meaningless garbage...

I have a vague recollection of a game years ago where a player got a red early on and the team still pulled through?

So so ridiculously harsh. Not deliberate at all, should have been yellow. Why don't people understand that the motivation of the player means the square root of fudge all. It was reckless, and it ended with a player injuring his head...therefore, red. Any injury outcome shouldn't influence the deci...

within a goal of an away win at clermont with rolland reffing, isnt too bad, but it aint a win, and it all goes down to what happened in the group stages

I hope Leicester stay cool around Rolland. Some of the gobbier players have left/arent playing, but in the past he's repeatedly penalised them for questioning his decisions.

It's all getting a little too informal/chummy with the ref these days. I blame Nigel Owens. As long as it doesn't go the other way (the football way) and there's still respect then I'm all for it.
