Intamen's Engineering

Josh, I Have that same video, and I know the *POTENTIAL* of Xcel's motor, but it is just not run like that to the public, so thats where I was saying the difference is.

*edit* - and luke, sure, head on over going that fast. Of course the negative G's will destroy you....

Ron: F-14A us Prat&Whitney TF30P414As and F-14B&Ds use GE-110s

Babylonia: Sorry don't know anyone 102, they where at sea when I checked into my command... and then they had transtioned to F-18Fs when we got back from out deployment on the Stennis, I'd assume at that point your nephew either went to transition school, or another tomcat squadron, or got out of the Navy...

...yeah I know this is off-subject... sorry... Um, lemme think of something on subject...

Here we go: I think it's very short-sighted to critize Intemin's Engineering because some downtime, in my opinion the only way to make a coaster that is not going to have problems is to just make the same coaster over and over and over, if you break new ground, your gonna have some problems. I don't care how many times you simulate it on a computer, and I don't care how much time you spend running jugs of water around the circuit... The real troubleshooting starts after you go primetime... And honestly, I think jet debate is a perfact analogy, because the exact same rules apply.. Let's look at the new F-22 for instance... that thing can stay in test phases and waste tax payer money for 50 years, and they will still find bug to work out when it joins the force... this applies to all new technology and to all old technology that is pushed further and harder than it has in the past... This process is what engineering is all about and ANY engineer should know that...

...wow, that was pretty inteligent for something I pulled out of ass...

over 2 pages in, do you think you could POSSIBLY edit your title and spell INTAMIN correctly? ;)

No, because only moderators can do that, and I'm not one to correct other people's mistakes.

I really enjoy Entenmann's chocolate chip cookies. How they can design rides too is just amazing!
