Good evening. You can’t just ask customers what they want and then try to give that to them. By the time you get it built, they’ll want something new.
I am from Nigeria and learning to read in English, give please true I wrote the following sentence: “If you want a more practical approach to curing your excessive sweating problem naturally and permanently further information is available on my website.“

Seeing as i have spoken to a pilot in person and in depth who flys these birds I am pretty damn sure I’m in a far better position to speak about just how they fly then you could ever be. You are completely wrong and have made yourself look like a prize tit.
Btw do you even know what Rube Goldberg is? I think you were looking for (incorrectly) the term Heath Robinson not “Rude(sic)Goldberg”.
In short you sir are a moron.

High stake missions,ie; Iran hostage rescue, demand reliability. The 5000psi hydraulic system using titanium tubing and fittings is an absolute nightmare due in large part to unavoidable inherant limitations of titanium. It tends to crack when vibrated, unlike heavier stainless used in 3000psi systems. Rolls Royce backed out of their maintenance agreement because their engines aren’t lasting. Kill production until these issues are solved.
