Have a look at this video when you get time and then tell me, S Hawkin may have got it wrong

What an amazing process, thanks Jason I'm sitting here watching this engineering spectacular with a small fun size mars bar (if you know what I mean)

Before I got into the elastictrickery malarkey, I did a bit of lorry driving, one delivery being to Rolls in Derby. Whilst waiting for the right bloke to collect the package, I was shown round the test bay and saw an engine getting an "mot" including test firing. Very impressive!

What a great program, gutted I missed the first one, might have to have a look on Iplayer.

this program has been on for a few weeks now, how to build a supercar, how to build jumbo wing etc, excellent, probably get them on iplayer

Fred Dibnah would have worked out a way to get them thar' titanium thinggggs ter within 'alf a micron if yer ask me.

 

[Knobhead]

Fred could build anything out of scrap and a bit of hammering.

Just watched it again for the third time. I can’t get over the lads welding the fan vanes by hand. I don’t think my pigeon dropping runs would cut the ice with them.

Cheers Des very interesting ... so we've only to wait a couple of years for the results of the plank satellite polarisation analysis to know whether what he's proposed is viable.

Didn't watch all of the S Hawking episode last night (wasn't much of him in it anyway) ... I fell asleep and missed the ending
