Airtoi SPECIAL Nr 1, october 1999
Flying Jet-powered models with THRUST VECTORING
to maximize future jet transport flight safety
[The article was sent to me by Benjamin Gal-Or for exclusive use on Airtoi]
My hope is that civil aircraft developers will accept and implement Thrust Vectoring in the near future to prevent crashes like that of the El Al Boeing in Amsterdam in 1992.
This aircraft flew over my appartment just 4 seconds before impact.
