And yet new airframes do get certified.

We don't put engines on top because it makes maintenance alot harder.

I've literally never seen TA's/Professors competing for help on an exam. Its always begging for students to come in and ask questions because the average in the class is < 50 and no one came. I think the only time I'v

I can't imagine how it is to be so insulated from the world to not be able to name a single major bridge construction in the past 50 years.
