-Gord.
Merry Christmas to you/yours Gord. Glad to see the "Sensible Old
Hands" are
still around/lurking ADA.

Look here, Nesbitt, as long as you are calling 747s "bombs", you
are
a
nut.

Why does my wishing some 1 Merry Christmas cause you such "Heart
Burn".

No, Ralph, it is you attempting to include yourself in some "sensible
old
hands" group, that gives me alarm; as you are a nut calling 747s
"bombs".
Do you have any clue how humiliated Cal Tech is for that little stunt?

Are you referring to the 'explosive mix' experiment that was conducted
using
propane ? IIRC as a substitute for Jet A fumes ?

Propane and hydrogen was the mix used by Cal Tech and they are now
humiliated for the stunt nation wide. No longer will America's
Universities
even consider lending their credibility to NTSB and they can no longer get
a
University to do work for them.

The vapor mix created for use in the tests was molecularly equivalent to
that of Jet A at a specified barometric pressure at a specified temp.

I understand the concept/principal followed, but am not qualified to argue
the fine points of the "Why/How".

Please explain/offer an alternative proposal/method of creating a substance
with the "Molecular Equivalency" of Jet A at varying altitudes & Temps.
