When I was last reading Aviation Week - they did a cheap offer for the IEEE membership list a few years ago - the F-35 joint strike fighter was hot news, but all the interesting design would seem to have been done by now, which makes you some kind of documentation and testing technician - whence the post on the fascinating problems of tightening up the nuts on closely spaced SMA connectors. This is sci.electronics.design. If you were interested in design you might have noticed that Fred Bloggs does post interesting information from time to time, along with the critical comments about his intellectual inferiors. -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen

Telegraph is another >invention that this happened to as well. In that case, I think we should turn Tehran into a huge glass dish, and then deny it. :-] Then, "admit" it about 50 years later. Kinda like we did with Kennedy. Except they didn't admit that... yet.

First off, your assessment is flawed, as you know nothing about the state of that system. A finished design for an airframe is only one system component of a modern jet. Why do you think there has yet to be any deliveries made? We have ours, but why do you think the rest are not done and shipped yet? Do you even know how many models there are? I am not talking about built airframes on a line either. I want to know your answer as to why they are not out the door yet. There are several reasons, the main one of which is the simple fact that the design is NOT done yet, as you incorrectly stated.

Any good HF engineer would know how to make such tools, much less implement them, or expound on the problematic issues of designing a product using them. You are lost, Billy. |
