[QUOTE="Samuel Halpern, post: 104328, member: 137378"] >>The white line indicates the water level joining the crows nest and the first funnel. << It pays to go to the primary source. From testimony at the American Inquiry, p.91: Mr. LIGHTOLLER. Well, roughly, the crow's nest was level with the water when the bridge went under water. Senator SMITH. Was it in the water? Mr. LIGHTOLLER. Was just about level with the water. Lightoller was on top of roof of the wheelhouse when he left the ship. The diagram in my article was drawn to match Lightoller's observation. The angle of trim would have been very close to 10°. [ATTACH=full]13326[/ATTACH] As far as "the list as a function of time" plot in my article, I can quantify each and every point on that curve which will be fully documented in a future article or book. If anyone has specific information that they could reference that could point to any errors on that plot, then please let me know so we can get them resolved. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
