It’s always a difficult compromise. Granting access to people is what it’s all about but at the same time you need to protect the exhibit. No matter what you do, some moron will deliberately or otherwise find a way through.

Then of course, there’s my wife – who like many people cannot resist checking to see if the wet paint she’s been warned about really IS wet. *sigh* So many of my projects have a small fingertip print in them :/

Another aside: We sometimes need to keep people off computer terminals and the expected “Do Not Use!” signs have no effect whatsoever.

I found the answer was a sign reading “This terminal is moribund”

Nobody wants to admit they don’t know what it means – and so give it a wide berth.

It’s my birthday on Sunday, and what’ll I get? A couple of 737’s and a gaggle of Piper Tomahawks – if I’m lucky.

I’ll bet our Liz doesn’t even like aeroplanes.

I do hope those of you nearer the capital have your cameras at the ready 🙂

Bah!!

Lovely picture!

What wouldn’t I give to see a gaggle of VC-10’s in BOAC colours sat on the apron…

*sigh*

With the exception of the 737, the modern crap just has no character.

Any idea why the first and second pilot’s pedals would differ?

The mechanical linkage to the rudder itself is often taken from the pilots side. This means that less is required for the 1st officer.

Given that the safety disconnects are typically only for pitch and roll, the co-pilots rudder assembly can be quite crude.
