News / Is it possible that Polish president was assasinated? If so then, by whom? [921]

If ONLY BOTH TLS and TAWS were removed/tampered with, how would the plane land?
These are both to ensure proper orientation at landing approach--TLS for the correct PATH approach and TAWS which warns pilots when they are too close to the ground.

Tell me: What would the result be if BOTH of these were not working?

Check your source, Velund--Russia Today is state-sponsored propaganda. Especially when I hear something like this:

all parts of aircraft moved from a crash site to a secure storage place until end of investigation

If they're moving it, why don't they just get Polish investigator's to arrange the remnants to be tagged and shipped to Poland. Confiscation?

1972, film

I would be inclined to suspect it might be too old to apply here...

If I will be able to find that disk tomorrow, I'll try to cut this fragment. Not sure that I still have it, though.

Ok, that would be great. Then we can have intelligent conversation. Right now it's going nowhere. And I will look into finding video of wailing choo-choo train for you ;-)

Ask others around on this forum to see what they think of the video. Oh, I forgot you mentioned earlier you didn't have speakers so you haven't actually "heard" the video...did you suddenly find some? I don't want to waste my time on a pointless argument if you're just jerking me around.

I simply do not have speakers on this computer to hear soundtrack of this flick.

The presence/absence of trains and firetrucks does nothing to discredit what is actually said, heard, and seen on this video, otherwise.

Velund, I would have to hear it be able to offer a valid opinion. I'll try to find out more, but really it's a train. I read Polish reports (how refreshing for a change!) that no emegency vehicles were called until much later, in which Poles were questioning the reason for that, certainly later than the video that only shot within minutes. Again, refer to the overhead view of the site and the house are only a short dash away. And you can tell the Russian in the video was running because he's out of breath.

History / Anger at yet another Polish tragedy [30]

I am both extremely pissed and heartbroken at the loss of the people who made Poland what it is today. Truly the 20th century architects of this country. But I strongly believe the Polish government should be pressed more by the people to demand more from this investigation, and not behave like such a Russian lap-dog. The only uprising I believe in here, is getting EU accident investigators in ASAP. Having had a week already with the data recorders, crash site, and the wreck to their disposal the Russians have had ample opportunity to tamper with evidence. And that video of the wreck in the forest utterly chills me. I can't get it out of my mind, it's just too eerie. Now imagine if we hadn't had the fortune of that Russian having the wherewithal to grab his camera and set out on foot. Where the hell would we be? A picture speaks a thousand words, and it's never been truer...

Well, then...I think we might have something here.

sounds of fire trucks sirena support it

That sounds like a train blasting its horn.... There have been reports that no fire trucks or ambulances were called out so soon. This video is reported to take place within minutes of the impact. If you look at the aerial shot of the crash site, you can see residences just to the right--it would only take them seconds to run there. Well, if you get "gnat" out of that like I do, and the identical word in Polish is wygnać--shots were for sure fired to scare them away. Wygnać / gnat have threatening meanings in both languages.

I simply do not have speakers on this computer to hear soundtrack of this flick. Maybe someone can separate soundtrack from flick and amplify it by some software that used to recover old recordings?

Use headphones, if you have any somewhere. I'm not high-tech enough to pull that off.
But I have headphones on that cover me entire ear. There's a lot more that's said by the other guy with the scared Russian, the older guy, at 1:19 minutes but I have no idea what it is. Can one of you translate? Also, what is the exact translation of what the guy is cursing? I get the gist of it, but just curious.

"gnat'" mean not very polite way to drive someone from some place. It may mean even something forceful or somewhat threatening.

The exact word for that in Polish is "wygnać" which means to banish with force. Yes, it's the exact same meaning in Polish. Okay... I still have misgivings about that whole video. It chills me to the bone.

News / Poland back to reality after Sunday ? [30]

the 70th anniversary of katyn killings was barely mentioned in the print or news

That's odd; we've had a lot of print coverage on it here, not so much televised though. I guess it depends on where you are.

"Davai gnat' ih otsuda"

This is it, then, I'm almost certain. Have a listen right at 50 seconds. They start talking at about 38 seconds... I wonder if you can make it out. The time at 50 seconds is much clearer, which is where that phrase is shouted. And then the shots fire just a few seconds later.
