"As a student juggling multiple courses and extracurricular activities" is by far the most "how do you do, fellow kids" sentence starter I think I've ever seen in one of these bot ads.
I love the story progression I got from just opening the forum:
"I stole a machinegun from someone who stole a machine gun from a mouse"

"Monarchii threatened me"
- GuardianAerospace|1 hour ago
I actually learned this just the other day about the UH-60 (and derivatives). In order for it to fit inside a C-130 for transport (one of the original design specifications), the nose had to be shorter. Combined with the fuel tanks being entirely behind the main cabin, the center of gravity range was entirely aft of the main rotor, meaning that the tail rotor needed to be canted in order to trim this out and rebalance the aircraft.
why was the gear so slow
why did the gear CATCH FIRE FOR NO REASON
where did the nose gear go
what was that physics-defying bounce
why did the engines decide to fall off and then spectacularly detonate
what were the last two seconds of the video
what does the song have to do with it
there are so many questions and none of them are worth answering
If you ask me, this is where prioritizing quotas, DEI, and political correctness over actual skill, experience, and the ability to say no will get you. Aviation is the one field where skill and experience should be prioritized over all else, and in my opinion what we're seeing is what happens when these are placed in the back seat in favor of fitting whatever agenda is the current hot topic.
(It's really unfortunate for me actually because in a year or two I might be working there on an internship. I wish I could say I still looked forward to that like I did when I was a kid, but I can't anymore.)

A dc10 means the player needs to roll a 10 or higher to pass whatever check or save (stealth, insight, perception, etc.) they need to do in order to succeed.
D&D joke that didn't land (ironically) (wait now I'm meta-referencing, this is trippy)
I appreciate the work you and your sources put in to making this such a clear and well-proven case. This kind of thing should not be allowed, and I'm surprised it's gone somewhat under the moderators' radars unnoticed up until now.
It's all for attention, which is why they will never actually leave of their own free will. Either they get so thoroughly called out that they are forced to leave in shame and make a big sob story post trying to make everyone feel bad for exiling them or whatever, and then come back a day later with a new account, or they get banned.
(Too bad this post will probably get removed in a few hours, it's genuinely an important callout but it could pretty easily be seen as breaking the policies on targeting and whatnot. Will be interesting to see how the moderators handle this.)
Russia 1 and 2 seem like they would be the most universally effective due to the less bold colors, but Ukraine 2 and 3 are also extremely good-looking. Not so much a fan of Ukraine 1 or the Kazakhstan pattern; in my opinion that kind of bold and blobby camo only works with like Vietnam-era greens and browns.
The sheer psychic damage I receive from checking this website continues to increase at what is apparently now an exponential rate.
Guys it's a funny plane building game, y'all are taking this way too seriously. Go to Reddit or something to have your identity crises.
If you could have some sort of smooth engage/disengage clutch mechanism and a stupid amount of gear reductions, it would be possible to have a turboshaft Shay
Also I love the design and how you made it work (and genuinely look good while doing so) but running a set of traction motors off of a generator on a turbojet engine has to be one of the most inefficient ways possible to power a locomotive lol
"Bold and willful, they do not tremble as they blaspheme the glorious ones, whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a blasphemous judgment against them before the Lord. But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed, blaspheming about matters of which they are ignorant, will also be destroyed in their destruction, suffering wrong as the wage for their wrongdoing." 2 Peter 2:10-13, ESV
oh sorry that was me
Fortunately there are not many Husky-themed posts but I may block preemptively anyway.

I genuinely can't tell if this is worldbuilding, schizophrenia, or if someone else actually got into your account.

wha
huh
Personally I like to think that the mods are mature enough to resolve whatever issues they may have between them in a civil manner.
+1wha
still easier to pay off than the US national debt
+1@32 is it later yet
Does anyone have a claim on the Wright Isles themselves yet?
Ooh, this'll be fun. Looks great!

@Terrora69 When I downloaded it and checked, both jet engines were connected to the central shaft at the rear of the fuselage.
Check the connections on your jet engine parts.
I'm sorry but https://xkcd.com/927/

@ThatKindaWeeb I think there's some sort of combined pitch/yaw control that keeps it from shifting unexpectedly, but I'm not sure on that.

@Randomplayer The Industrial Revolution and its consequences are also what allowed you to share that with the world.

It has literally been less than 18 hours
Depending on how it's translated, I believe it's some variation of either "Hooray," "Hurrah," or "Yippee"

@Graingy honestly that's probably pretty close at this point haha
