      Correct. These men are 20-27% greater than other men in their age group and size group. It’s mind blowing.

    Good to show the dimpling of drilled holes in the skin, especially given that rivet hole punching-as opposed to this process-was the identified cause of the catastrophic failures that resulted in De Havilland Comet crashes. Yes, this is an unpressurised aircraft BUT worth showing best practice.

    That city looks like paradise. Maybe when I get my A&P, I can go word at a Mexican airplane factory.

    That wall looked pretty impressive too. No scrap metal hunters get in there in at night and in the weekends I'll bet!

      FPV Racing Drone man from Nepal Yes, that’s what they are doing with the skinning jig. The quick build has most of the wing assemblys preskinned

    I was interested until I saw the yahoo using oxy/acetylene. Theres several reasons that process is very rarely used anymore. Especially when they're already using 2 better welding processes.

    • @gregswingle
      @gregswingle  3 роки тому

      I think finding staff to run those other processes is a challenge. There is a high dollar VW factory not far away that enjoys the skilled labor. The owner doesn’t want to pay for skilled video work, so I’m guessing he doesn’t want to pay too many skilled welders either.

      So what is wrong with gas welding? This is the process of building aircraft structure for ages.

      @@phatvu3811 Productivity and weld quality, there's a reason oxy has been phased out.

      It’s slower and takes skills but it heats a large area and anneals the joint (relieves stress) 75 year old planes still going strong with it. Bob used this method intentionally.

    This is why we have a shortage of jobs here at home. Cheap ass company. I will never buy from them again.

      Dont buy if you dont want to, but you just can asume that the owner of the factory are billioneirs. You dont know if they got a loan agaist their home just to keep the company going hoping its going to get better.
