Maladies in our defense equipment should be kept classified. Oh that’s right, 0bama is President and our goal is to project a ‘weak military’.. There’s obviously an odd physics phenomenon or a tiny part at fault but we should project strength not weaknesses in our military!
I would be more inclined to see difficulties and dismiss if the problematic system was new cutting edge stuff. But come on guys, this is the oxygen system for the pilot!!!!!! How many years have we made O2 systems for aircraft crew???
1. computers have glitches and their might not be a problem.
2. the New recording device or probe might be the problem.
3. Houston we have a malfunction. Its all in your heads!
This one of those ‘Facepalm’ problems. It is simple. But they just aren’t ‘seeing it’. Probably a manufacturing error, like a part turned backwards or something simple. Just not obvious right now.
My understanding is that the Navy has experienced similar issues with the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet, though not on as great a scale and the two services are working together to tackle this problem.
