It also keeps the biggest source of drag (wing) right at the source of thrust (engines, so it turns out) too. This vastly reduces the structural needs of the entire aircraft.

Eh, weight distribution is not hard to deal with. Build the rest of the plane, then put your wings wherever the COM ended up.

Mentour Pilot is a great channel. I’m glad you watch it too!

Scientific linguistic pedantry: a quantum leap is the smallest possible change an element in a system can undergo.

Also, the reaction that generates the oxygen also smells a bit like a plane burning. Try to not be alarmed by this alarming smell.

Get your butts above the hard deck and return to base immediately.

Any and all of those things can cause distraction and can be cause for a ticket. Phones tend to be the worst of these because they can easily be very engrossing.

You have to be paying attention to what is going on around you all the time when you are behind the wheel. I have personally twice see jackasses impede emergency vehicles behind them at an intersection because they were fucking around on their phone while stopped at a red light. In both cases, the idiot jumped in…

Kidney-bean Dorito Flinger. Sounds dirty.

What do you mean? They’re 100% reliable. Every time you put boost in, you can rely on the apex seals coming out.
