Speedo Hotshot Registered: 02/15/01 Posts: 5314 Loc: NC USA	Someone needs to seriously smack the aircraft industry upside the head and introduce the to the concept of automation. No wonder the price of anything with wings (but military aircraft in particular) is beyond ludicrous today. _________________________ Core i5-750 @ 3.2 Ghz [Hyper-212+ Cooling] Gigabyte P55A-UD3 Mobo 8GB G.Skill DDR3-1600 @ 9-9-9-24 XFX Radeon HD6950 Creative X-Fi Intel X25-M 80GB SSD 2x Hitachi 2TB HDD Corsair 650W PSU Dell 24" [1920x1200] LCD Viewsonic 20" [1680x1050] LCD

Gopher Senior Member Registered: 01/06/09 Posts: 2892 Loc: London	I was also a little surprised that there was a lot more manual work involved. Still, it's a very cool video. When the initial cockpit structure went together, it did remind me of the plastic kits.

Corsair8X Dagestan, Dover, DMZ Senior Member Registered: 10/27/05 Posts: 4827 Loc: Oakville, Ontario, Canada	I was watching a show I think called Weapons Factory or something and they were showing the assembaly of the Apache. Aside from the jig they use, just about everything is by hand - not counting the power tools. They even physically push the aircraft from one station to the next in the assembably process. _________________________ Corsair8X virtually making history 30mm at a time

semmern Hotshot Registered: 03/19/01 Posts: 8807 Loc: Oslo, Norway	That thing has got to be a royal b*tch to maintain! Modular construction is just SO 1940s! _________________________ In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than a hundred sea miles and he brings us up on his tail.
