Thanks for the honest review. Will have to check one out.
So does anyone in this thread have the manual transmission in one? Thoughts? How does it compare to the CVT?
I thought the gasket issue extended to any 2.5 4 cylinder...I.E.: Outbacks up to 2009 and Imprezas up to 2007?
That’s what the lawyer lips are for (hopefully). That being said, I think it is possible for a disc brake to eject the front wheel past the lawyer lips. Hopefully the rider would notice something “felt funny” before it became an issue.
Yeah, I wasn’t sure either. The Siemens and GE units I’ve seen typically have a larger number, albeit smaller, combustors going all the way around the unit. I pretty much work exclusively on the design/engineering side of steam turbines, so I’m not overly familiar with them either.
Re: 1:48 - I believe you’re correct. Those look like two large combustors on the upper half.
I replied elsewhere, but it appears to be a compressor. They’re using torches to heat up and remove the shrunk on impellers.
“...and whatever that spinning thing everybody’s welding at 01:45 is!”
The video shows a little bit of everything that MAN does. Engines, diesel turbos, compressors, gas turbines, steam turbines, turbo expanders, etc.
Payscale.com releases an annual ROI report. (I only know of this because my school recently did well).
I believe the catapult would be restraining it as well. I can't imagine brakes would be strong enough to hold all of that thrust, but I'm just guessing.
Looks like an F-Stop pack:
Was it one of these? http://www.atdynamics.com/
I can't say for sure with this example, but that's not always how scaling works. Scale models are usually scaled by geometry - meaning the body of the car is 10 times smaller then the real thing. This doesn't necessarily equate to having a motor that's 10 times smaller though. For example, one of the cars in the…
Maybe they integrate it into the core / elevator shafts? Or a liquid dampener mounted on the roof?
They'll be using a very robust tuned mass damper:

Sorry, can you elaborate on your second point? Are you saying the policy exists because leaving phones on would place too much strain on the cell networks?
Hm, but they qualify it with, "...operating in international waters." So, that would make sense. They don't need to follow host nation laws because when they're in international waters, there's no host nation.
I would suspect things are different when they're in foreign waters.
