Is Facebook making an airplane?
- valarauca1 12y agoThe job is primarily centered around maintenance. The interesting part is the solar cells, maybe a solar powered drone for very long flight times?
- sargun 12y agoThere is also this position: https://www.facebook.com/careers/department?dept=infrastructure&req=a0IA000000CzHxYMAV https://www.facebook.com/careers/department?dept=infrastruct... "Facebook is looking for someone to assist in the Airframe assembly efforts development phases of their high-altitude solar powered aircraft. A successful candidate will be able to assist with airframe assembly and integration." High altitude solar aircraft? Sounds similar to the Solar Impulse 2, but what does Facebook want with that?
