It’s funny, my kid and I were just talking about sampling biases the other day; the best example we came up with was an online survey asking if the participant had internet access, but asking people in an airport if they feel it’s safe to be in an airport comes damn close.
I used to do airport advisory at an airport with a provincial forestry service base, and every year, they stationed an Aero Commander spotter and Electra air tanker there. They didn’t spend much time parked and in three years I don’t remember them ever going mechanical. What a machine that was!
Nice try Boeing, but you’ve got a lot of work to get as good at post-disaster rebranding as Morton-Thiokol-ATK-Orbital or whatever they’re named this week.
The missing piece of the decision is that these organizations need to start doing things NOW, things that involve spending a large portion of their budget, that will destroy the organization if the event doesn’t bring ticket revenues to pay it back months later.
It could be worse. If you were from the Province of Quebec, you are not only part of the national corporate gift, but an additional billion spread over a fraction of the citizens.
I have similar concerns - look up the UK’s mythical TV detector vans. But unlike the stories of hunting TV receivers, hunting transmitters is actually plausible. Canadian flight service stations have VHF-DF. Coast guard stations triangulate a position at sea in about three seconds. Ham radio operators do direction finding as a sport. If you know what frequency the controller is sending, I imagine two or three stations, each costing under a thousand dollars, made from equipment available to hobbyists, would do the job.
I’d like to see proof of this. The U.K. has a long history of trying to convince people it can track things it can’t, like people watching television without paying their TV license fee. But that said, a system to track the radio control transmitter for a UAV is a LOT more plausible than the “TV detector vans”.
