I finally cancelled my Netflix subscription. At 15 minutes before midnight on Aug 31.
I agree that it was a good deal but the streaming offering was pretty scant.

AF447 Disaster
I've been reading almost daily on the Air France Flight 447 crash ever since the new report was published on July 29, 2011.
Fascinating how three experienced pilots did not realize that airplane was in a stall and falling from the sky fast. There is a great thread on www.airliners.net if you are interested.
While reading it I had problems figuring out many of the technical acronyms.
Here are my findings so far:
THS - Trimmable Horizontal Stabilizer
AoA - Angle of Attack
There are a lot more things that I don't understand.
Here is a very interesting spreadsheet mapping the events and the data from the voice and data recorders.
