  1. I'm no expert in this area, however, isn't the design of this runway a challenge in itself, especially to a "non-seasoned" pilot? Yes, 1000's of landings have been made without any issues. However, to have a "sea wall" at the beginning of the runway that extends approximately 10 - 20 feet above sea level looks intimidating and potential fatal if not negotiated correctly. Some of you guy's that are pilot's may have a completely different take on this perspective.

    Don't forget the pilot, Captain Sum Ting Wong, only had a grand total of 43 hours in that type of aircraft.

    We had a crash here a few years ago where the blame was pilot error. Everyone on board died.

  2. Passives move with sound waves. Speakers put out sound waves. If passives are close enough to an sound wave, the passive will move. Plus, it does not produce sound. That is being caused by the Chorus II's disrupting the airflow from the other speakers.

    Put a fan next to a passive and it will move.

  3. Look for burn marks on the CCA's

    Even though I have some nice gear, I'm still a newbie when it comes to knowing the insides and out of amps and what not. So please forgive my ignorance, but what are CCA's, and where inside the amp would they be?

    No problem, man. Sometimes people use acronyms that other people don't understand.

    CCA's are circuit card assemblies. Also PCB's are printed circuits boards. There are a few other names floating around.

    It all depends on the architecture of your amp. My ATI has 5 discreet boards, one for each channel.

    Just have to figure out what channel isn't working. Pull that board and send it to a tech who knows those boards. Or back to the manufacturer for repairs.
