Hey, my uncle helped design that plane! :thumbup:

Give my compliments to your uncle then, 'cause we're buying a bunch of those. :rofl:

Seriously though, that's cool. Aerospace engineers FTW. :thumbup:

I have to agree with you there.
I'm planning to go into Aerospace or Mechanical, and my father is (or was) an Electrical Engineer (though he is now an engineering manager).

Nice story:

Boy with his head in the clouds

A Melbourne teenager is building his own aircraft out of scrap metal and spare parts in the family garage.

The wings seem rather low area for the likely speed of that craft, at least compared to other ultralights :shrug:. Good luck to him.

I think my uncle (not the once who works at Lockheed Martin, though. This one went to MIT) tried doing that, but my grandfather made him stop when he was afraid of him succeeding. :rofl:

Wow, what a flight! Abort Once Around, to much energy to land at KSC. Divert to Nassau Intl! Nope, to much energy. Finally came down at Habana, with accidential takeoff after touchdown, ended up in a field with heavy gear and airframe damage. I guess I need a new Albatros space tanker, repair will take some time...

That was my first use of Glideslope MFD. RTM, astrosammy!

WOW! Good that they always have a camera...
Is that an orbinaut trying to get to retrograde attitude? Or a fast docking maneuver?

Testing, testing. Hey, my new avatar works!

Holy ... searching for a truck crash on that date gives many truck crashes on that day, but not the right one... :lol:

In about two weeks, I will have been a member of homo sapiens sapiens for twenty years. Not counting the ~9 months of lurking before I gathered the courage to make my first post. :rofl:
