I know that you like to talk about the aesthetics of flying mostly. Sometimes you get off on the technical aspects.
I am a techie nerd and love the technical sides of the business. I used to read Aviation Week on occasion.
It would be nice to have an occasional article with the technical side fleshed out. How, why, where and when of the designs and design issues.
I was fascinated by the technology of turbine blade which has made all of this possible. What happens when turbine blades fail? What do they do to prevent? For me, this is extremely interesting and I am sure there are many anecdotes and stories about this subject. And this is just one little bit of the technical side with a great deal of human interest.
