I realize it would mean she would no longer be fighting for her rights in her satin tights, but you'd think Wonder Woman would have made her whole outfit out of whatever her bracelets are made out of.

If the black box always survives, why don't they make the whole airplane out of it? 🙃
I don't know that Wonder Woman has the same weight restrictions as a 727.
What about her invisible plane?
I never understood the invisible plane. You can see her while she's inside it. How is the invisibility especially helpful?
It's especially helpful to cartoonists who can't draw a plane.
Doesn't show up on radar
I'm pretty sure cartoonists don't use radar.
sigh
I'm sure we can make something up that makes sense.
I guess when it's parked no one can find it. Also if it's invisible to radar then she'd just look like a cloud or bird or something.
Also Superman got to fly on his own, so it's more…fair if at least her plane is invisible…?
Ive always wondered if Superman (or any flying tights) would show up on radar. Is a person just too small of an object? Do drones show up on radar?
I guess i could look that last one up pretty easily if i wasn't drinking my coffee and just scrolling.
Ironman popped up on radar in his first movie. I guess metal might make the reflective difference. So maybe the perfect stealth plane would be covered in skin.
Yes. I have had a ground unit radar operator call out a "small aircraft" in a restricted zone repeatedly that we passed over (without seeing it) repeatedly, only for it to disappear and reappear again in the same general area. It was on the third or fourth pass I noticed two large birds flying wingtip to wingtip exactly where they were saying, and disappeared when the split apart.
So the size of a bird? Maybe not. The size of TWO birds? Yes. Annoyingly so.
I worked in aviation for a few years. I've heard tons of stories about birds showing up on radar. A human size object would absolutely show up.
I was thinking about that too. But i wasn't sure if it was a movie thing or not. Thanks.
More than skin, you need meat. Red meat.
True. You don't want to use white or dark meat. Birds can show up on radar.
I feel like the radar thing doesn't make sense. The plane is invisible to the naked eye, which radar doesn't rely on. If you got a box to somehow fly, and made the material invisible, radar would still pick it up flying through the air due to how radar works. That being said, I may be wrong about how the invisible jet works, and it could also have some materials that make it non readable to radar.
I'm honestly coming up with blanks for a plane that is invisible, but the occupants aren't. I feel in anything related to air to air, that sort of invisibility is pretty useless because either you're plane is invisible to all radar, which makes it being visible to the naked eye rather unimportant, or you're not invisible to radar in which case it doesn't matter that the ship is invisible since pilots don't rely on their naked eye for plane detection. Against people without radar (random ground troops, random people) I suppose its sort of helpful.
Radar is a kind of electromagnetic wave, and so is visible light. If the plane were invisible to all EM radiation it would be invisible to both the eyes and to radar.
Well.. It broke down and nobody could do maintenance on it. They really should have thought that through.
Imagine dropping an invisible screw while you're trying to put the engine back together.
Working on your invisible jet and you hear this sound
And they are orange!
How do you sell new airplanes if the old ones are still fine even after crashing into a mountain? Well, mostly fine… Just scrape all the kebab and tomato sauce off the walls, and you should be good to go.
