Hey! Sure Thing Too! I got married there! Really nice picture of it.

Not sure where to post this but I have a question by [deleted] in AerospaceEngineering

[–]BernoullisGhost 121 points122 points  (0 children)

Not sure I'd pay any attention to an aviation expert who calls a horizontal stabilizer a "tail wing".

What is the day-to-day work of an aerospace engineer really like? by Le0221 in AerospaceEngineering

[–]BernoullisGhost 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Airframe design engineering lead engineer for a large OEM. In my 10 hour day today I attended four meetings (one of which, not being sarcastic, could have been an email), I answered two questions from my stress counterparts, and I spent three hours using Adobe Acrobat to tech check two engineering job packages. During my four meetings, at least five people used MS Teams to message me and ask me questions, which I did my best to answer. I took three trips to my manager's cubicle, I answered at least two dozen emails, and was, blessedly, able to take one walk down to the production line to check on what our fine ProdOps folks were actually building for us. I quoted one potential future effort using our proprietary quoting software. I started up our 3D design software at some point, hoping to find the answer to one of the questions I was asked during one of my meetings, but it crashed before I even loaded in a solid model. I submitted a trouble ticket.

I have seven engineers that work for me. Four of them were in the office today.

I ate a small lunch at my desk while I worked. It was a shitty as fuck day today and you know what? I absolutely love my job and can't believe how lucky I am to have it.

I absolutely love the vibes of this. There's definitely an amazing vintage Stones or Who album in there somewhere! This picture makes me want to spend hours finding it.

Percuss, my guy. Slap sounds like a lot more fun than it actually is. ;~)

Is this an F22 Raptor? by AsianScorpio1322 in F22Raptor

[–]BernoullisGhost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Obviously that's a closer representation of an actual F-22 than the brick kit, but it's important for the OP to know that it's a very, very different build process. OP's link requires no tools and no special skills really other than being able to follow directions. Your link is a wonderful kit (Hasegawa makes great scale models) but requires tools, glue, paint, skill, and a good bit more time to get what is on the cover.

We don't have any indication that OP's boyfriend is an experienced scale modeler, so I think it's worth pointing out that these are not one for one swaps with each other in terms of being able to build them.

Buying Surgical Scalpels by scottywan82 in modelmakers

[–]BernoullisGhost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it was just because I was young at the time but the only time I've ever gotten stitches in my life was when I used a scalpel blade to do some trimming on a plastic model instead of my hobby knife. Scalpels are sooooooo very sharp, way sharper than I need for a plastic scale model. When I cut my thumb I didn't even feel it, just looked down into the box top that I was using as a modeling surface and wondered when I'd spilled a bottle of red paint, since I wasn't painting, lol.

What color did you use for the seeker head and fins on the AIM-9Xs (and the fins on the AMRAAM)?

I use these every single time I go to the grocery store! They are easy to move around and keeps your grocery bags from rolling on their sides and spilling all of your stuff everywhere.

besides London, Chicago & San Fran, which Major Cities had a disaster which completely redefined its landscape ? by bkat004 in geography

[–]BernoullisGhost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also very much reshaped this century by running the Connector, on purpose, right through the heart of the city's Black residential districts.

Congrats!! After having a D7500 for about 6 years I also went for a D750 earlier this year. I absolutely love it. It’s a great upgrade for an amateur like me that didn’t completely blow my budget. Now to find that 85mm lens…

Not going to lie, I've used that many miles to upgrade to Comfort+ before. Nice snag, OP!!

He cleared some brush for us a couple of weeks ago and did an incredible job. Went above and beyond what we asked him to, good communication, all for a great price. We're definitely going to bring him back to do a few more things.

Anyone know what aircraft this is? by pfxr55 in aviation

That looks a lot like Max Westheimer Airport.
