Somehow I think modified F22s will do multi role better than the F35 will.

So is there a lesson here for the JSF? Design an aircraft to excel at one role and then adapt it to other roles creatively, rather than designing for multiple roles from the outset and risk ending up with an aircraft that doesn’t do any one thing particularly well?

Edit for style: Although THE brothers fly dissimilar aircraft...

I was always throwing bales on wagon driven by a child that couldn't even be trusted to turn it around at the end of the field. I can smell hay just looking at that picture.

That is a whooooooole lot of words just to tell me you’re stupid, man.

I too was a farm kid, and yup today’s PC minded people would EXPLODE at half of the shit we were allowed to do. My grandfather drove us kids around in the back of his truck (no seat belts, no cap on the truck bed, just open air and asphalt. That actually kinds of terrifies me now lol). I was taught how to drive the…

I dunno. For the same reason we have “Worcester”?

Love this. My first drive was around 5-6 on a cub cadet. At 7 I had advanced up to a field tractor with a clutch. Unfortunately, it didn’t work 100% correctly and the gears were basically the throttle. Really confused me the first time I tried to drive a manual car.

Hey guys, when I was a kid some dude put one bullet in a revolver, spun the cylinder, pointed it at my head and then pulled the trigger. I WAS FINE SO LETS STOP SAYING THAT RUSSIAN ROULETTE IS A POOR PARENTING CHOICE, K?

Yeah not calling people slurs and meddling in other people’s childrearing, those two concepts sure are the same.

Six year old me had a number of arguments of whether I should be allowed to steer the tractor or ride “shotgun” on the ol’ John Deere. It’s those damn PTO horror stories (loose sleave gets caught = dead/one-armed man) — it was an uphill battle to win that argument.

Spoken like a parent with multiple kids? lol

You clearly don’t have a kid. They have the habit of refusing to take naps at home and falling asleep in cars only when you get to the place you’re going, that they swore they’d stay awake for.

As things get safer in general, people get more panicky when something does go wrong because they have less and less experience on not panicking as a frame of reference. I think we need to put “how not to panic” on teaching schedules for all high schools.
