Well at least there is a mechanical failsafe but even so that system kind of creeps me out a bit.

Snowdens Secret posted:I'm curious if you've ever stepped foot in an even remotely modern commercial airliner. The level of testing and QA that goes into any sort of safety equipment on an airliner is very many times more stringent than for a car. Plus modern airliners have multiple backup hydraulic systems for the control surfaces, etc. I just don't see how the comparison is valid when flying is so different from driving.

Slavvy posted:Isn't it because light housings are bloody expensive to develop, so they used the lights from the new beetle? Because later versions have more normal, forward-pointing lights taken from the new mini. Probably that's the reason why, I didn't know what car they sourced their lights from

My car doesn't even have a seat belt receptacle for passenger side front seat and the belts are hidden in the back because I put the back seat together half assed after I rewired the car for my stereo. Makes it a lot easier to not give people a ride unless I really want to.

I do QA for an aerospace CNC company where ~40% of our employees don't speak english and 90% of the rest of the operators are $12/hr button pushers. We had some guy try to pass off loving shim stock as 2024-O because he scrapped a part and didn't want his work order to be short a part. There are literally no consequences to scrapping a part here. It delaminated during the hydroform process which make it really obvious and the dude was shitcanned, but maaaaaaaan. You guys wouldn't believe some of the poo poo that goes on here.

We've been breakforming 6-4 without performing penetrant inspect for a good solid year or so on several dozen parts because despite people in QA bringing it up because our planners can't read specs for the manufacturing techniques they quote in their bids
