The Swoosh was born 9 years ago in 2015, and ever since then I’ve been developing, revamping and and advancing the concept!

Sometimes its easy to loose sight of that fact, but here’s a visual of all the iterations, successes and failures that have built what I’ve done up to now #avgeek #rc

Man what does it take to be friends with Jet engine engineers and scientists who really REALLY know their craft?

Realizing that I've trained myself so much to use partial throttle that I undersell how quick my car can be. Its not much quicker but such speed is better used than not

What are the odds of stumbling on a perfect 2 car solution?

Because an AV-8B Harrier is more engine than aircraft, you can't remove one from an airframe, so this museum example still had one only partially enclosed.

Through the thrust nozzles you can peak inside at the Pegasus engine! The front nozzles are fed by the cold thrust and rears hot thrust #avgeek

An F-5E is a perfect subject to illustrate area ruled fuselages. Look at how it kinks in the middle over the wings and then widens out again.

All of the descriptions of area ruling always seemed so confusing, but I learned that it's literally approximating a tear drop shape on an airplane #airplane

The result

Tasty meal, however I went too hard on the seasonings, so next batch will need to tone it down

I've been disappointed with the quality of Burger I've accessed the past month, so I'm gonna see if I can do better. Been a while since I last cooked!

I got federal charged for dancing across the street from ICE in my neighborhood on Indigenous People's Day. Here is the feds evidence photo they are using against me in court.
I really really need a good lawyer but I cant afford one.

When exploring the various designs of inlets with the aircraft at the museum the other day, some important consistencies were observable:

1) the slower the plane, the shallower the inlet

2) if subsonic, inlet lip is rounded

3) if supersonic, inlet lip sharp and

4) splitter or spike #avgeek

I must have woken up on the wrong side of the bed today. I lacked any willingness to do anything after breakfast. I'm kinda just wasting away in bed right now

While going to the museum to see planes is a great reason on its own, I did technically have a goal. I saw online the mechanics of the Phantom 2s wing slats, and realized I could examine it in person!
#avgeek

I really want to design an RC solution for a low drag automatic slat.

Not that it was ever up to question how much of an Avgeek I was, but in 3 hours at the museum I took 72 photos and videos, which includes 5 minutes of various footage
