Malaysian 777 enroute to Beijing missing!

[C-150ETOPS]

C150ETOPS-

The overwing exits are automatically locked in flight. No worky.

Was thinking there might be a way to trick the system through breakers/power. It's been awhile since I flew it, knew it had something like the 737 lockout.

I haven't flown it, but I'm assuming that it has something like the NG, too. Probably should just leave it at that, though.

How are they unlocked...air/ground sensor??? If you belly land can they be opened?

The cabin pressure differential acts on a flap preventing the locking dogs from being retracted. When the diff is 0 the flap allows the locking mechanism to withdraw the locks. The flap doesn't have to be very large square inch wise to exert a large force.

So what if it's flying depressurized?...

unless you trick the system PSEU into thinking its on the ground. Or turn all electrics off.
