"Hey that planet looks a little fuzzy let me turn on my brights..."

Has anyone checked Docking Bay 94?

Yes, but in the Aprilia's case, you'll go slow. In the Shuttle's case, you'll die in three million pounds of rocket fuel.

I have only watched a handful of Shuttle launches in my life, and today's was one of them. As this launch draws an era to a close, so ends the last vestiges of a monument to every one of humanity's achievements: from the first stone tools to the first society to the first industrial nation.

:D My first promotion!

NASA: I'm sorry, I can't hear you from up here.

The Aprilia, at a generous 70 ft-lbs with an estimated first gear total drive of 1:21 delivers 2075 lbf of thrust with a 17" tire. With 570 lbf max normal force on tire w/rider at wheelie speed on rear tire x very generous mu of 1.0 and neglecting yaw moment = 553 lb thrust capability giving you .97G accel

You could put a generator in the passenger seat.

D'aww, I forgot to tag the photo as tips when I posted that pic in response to the Photoshopped plane. Glad to see it circulating though.

Because you are decidedly not black.

Maybe for NVH, but not for a well engineered car. Especially since sixes have odd-order harmonics anyways with 3 power strokes a rev.

I know a detail guy who can take care of that.

Even with all the already-mentioned giveaways - wing sag. The wings are sagging. Pulling a (relatively for a 'liner) high-g ascent would load the wings enough that they had a visible upward curl. These wings are static and droopy.

Aw.

Y U No let me hear exhaust note!?

I had this one in my closet and I'd walk in and peek at it every so often to comfort myself on having a posterless room.
