dsawan 620 Posted March 17, 2011 Looks like heli's are being used to dump sea water on the reactor. I wonder why no C-130 planes arent beingusd on a continuos flight to bombard it with even more water. Thats similar to when they fight forest fires. C-130's can hold way more water than a helo can. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/as_japan_earthquake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fubar512 1,350 Posted March 17, 2011 I wonder why no C-130 planes arent beingusd on a continuos flight to bombard it with even more water. The answers pretty obvious. It's a concept known as "precision" Perform the following Google search (parenthesis, commas, and all) "Chernobyl, helicopter, boron", and you'll see why.

Fubar512 1,350 Posted March 20, 2011 Please Remember a Nuclear Generation Plant, Contains Many Reactors Three Mile Island was in 1987, there was NO internet, there were NO Blogs. The Media had a Monopoly on information If they wished us to be Hysterical, we became Hysterical My question is "How Many Died" at Three Mile Island ? How many cases of "Cancer" can be attributed to Three Mile Island ? It'd be a great Law Suit The TMI accident occured on March 28, 1979, not 1987. It was essentially over within a week, although it took them about 1 month to finally shut the reactor down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
