This shot makes me wish there was a new flight game like Rogue Squadron N64 only featuring classic military aircraft.

You also have to take into account the facility’s proximity to the contractors testing there and the resultant travel costs for engineers and the test articles themselves.

This happened at one of the big 3 military aerospace companies when I worked there a few years ago. No one shared it, for obvious reasons.

HAHAHAHa you are explaining a business problem in engineering language

I feel the same. I think what’s bothering us are all the uninformed opinions about very technical things. The particular subject that irks me the most is traction control. I find that most journalists do not comprehend the inner workings of, say, a torque vectoring differential, verses a limited slip differential with…

Lithgow is the real life Calculon.

What horrible visibility they had. It really spoils the last shot of the city. Pretty disappointing for the crew, I imagine.
