Since Earth is the winner?

Question

of all earth vs. airplanes collisions, why not make airplanes of soil??

/aka why not make them of the blackboxes/

Answer 1

Well, you're wrong there. EVERY LANDING results in an earth vs airplane collision, and 99.99 percent of them are successful with no damage to either. And most airplanes are made from aluminum, which ultimately comes out of the earth as ore, so in a very real sense airplanes are indeed made out of soil. And one other myth: the so-called "black boxes" are orange, not black. They may be tough, but they are far from indestructible. I think that perhaps your head has made too many collisions with the earth for you to ask intelligent, or even clever original questions.

Answer 2

because if we make an airplane out of the black box material it would be to heavy to fly any we could never make an airplane out of soil(but we do make airplanes out of the material in teh ground so its kind of like it)

Answer 3

Patience H, patience.

After all kids will be kids and we can be a bit forgiving. Y!A wont exist if folks looked up all the existing answers. Almost everything has been asked in one way or the other.

Now for the answer, since soil might have seeds, moisture in the upper atmosphere could trigger germination and botany would interfere with aerodynamics. Botany and aerodynamics dont mix well.

Answer 4

Now we know what part of the mind the worms eat first!

Answer 5

Since lead and copper is the winner of all bullet vs. flesh collisions, why not wrap our soldiers in lead and copper?
