How to Build A Jumbo Jet Engine
An interesting look inside a Rolls Royce manufacturing plant in the UK, and a fascinating and detailed examination of the design and construction of the components and assembly of a jet engine.
This is part 1 of 4. See part 2 for some nice examples of computer modeling and simulation. Be sure to watch parts 3 and 4 for a review of the incredible communication network by which they monitor the performance of thousands of engines via satellite in near real-time.

Here you'll see lots of things that I find interesting or amusing. Much of what you'll get are reflections of my interest in technology for design and/or manufacturing. I'm also a bit of a science and space geek, and you'll eventually encounter some, philosophy, travel articles, scenic photography and music.
