well, it's FINALLY made the MSM!
here's the link:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090807/ap_on_go_ot/us_planes_speed_malfunction
isn't it interestin/SCARY that ALL the failures of the Pitot Tube r happenin on AIRBUS planes, with EUROPEAN Pitot Tubes [made by thales]?
brings more to the sayin: "if it ain't boeing, i ain't going!"
the article doesn't reference the incidents that qantas had quite a few years ago with the Pitot tubes on their A330 jets-it was the exact same problem! once qantas replaced the thales Pitots with goodrich Pitot tubes.....they NEVER had a problem again
wonder if thales, airbus, & air france are all on the hook for "negligence"?
