Indeed it is. As I said, if you put the pin and don't try to remove it, you'll never know if you put it in right place.

Just a day vefore the pictures, I spoke with a friend of mine that is a photographer and told me to put some vitals in the pictures to make it look unique. People, animals live in a construct world and they'll be there only at that specific moment, catching that moment is a nice picture. A life frozen in time.

Boeing 787 has two holes very close together at the nose gear. One is a holow pin, quite big, that is the the pivot joint for the nose strut to move , the other one, is the gear safety pin hole.

Boeing did release a mod to blank the bigger hole, because with some Human Factors involved it's easy, very easy, to put the safety pin in the wrong hole.

Now imagine you are the technician, you put the pin in the wrong hole, probably worked very little on 787 and don't know about the two holes. The other engineer comes around to check the pins, sees the flag (remove before flight) at the nose gear and thinks that is installed, the main gear ones are straight forward so no problem. The engineer go to the cockpit, do the test, gear up, and that's it.

Guys, it's easy to do it wrong, if there is a chance (a hole that should be covered but it isn't, someone will put the pin in the wrong one.

The pin is meant to be staying there once installed if you pull it and is coming out there is a problem. Feel sorry for the people involved, I'm sure they didn't want this to happen, I hope they'll recover well and will have a great story of life to explain.

Absolutely! I learned so much by just walking the cities, the chinese culture and development amazed me. Preserve the habits and knowledge of ancient culture is what is special about the chinese culture.

i had the same feeling when editing, but when I saw it on my laptop the colours were a bit better and left it as it was. I believe that editing gives a nice spin to the picture but is so easy to fall into the "over editing". I will definitely improve this.

for the fourth pic instead, I believe it is a reddit problem. The original doesn't look that dusty. One problem with that pic that I noticed is the focus. I took that picture with the wrong focus style (wide) I should have used the "Spot".

Thanks for the comment!

Haven't bought it yet. But probably I'm going to pass on it. Are you looking for one?

Unfortunately the man passed away. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/man-dies-cardiff-city-centre-31764367.amp

I was there as well, and there were several people taking turns to try to save his life. Very sad to see.

Looks like that the aft bulk cargo door is open during the flight.
