Oohhhhhhh, that is VERY cool! Anything you can divulge or have you been sworn to secrecy??

I wished I had more time to explore, or even locate and visit Scale Composites. But alas, I had my father in tow and the 1700 mile trip in three days had him fatigued out.

Five new crispy tires for the trailer. They were aged out and we were losing pieces of them along with broken valve stems. An unplanned expense and time delay.





Him supervising the install...
Goodyear AZ


One stop in Barstow

Final in Bakersfield

Now he is looking at selling the trailer.

It did make a giant mess in the adjacent field. Not unexpected with a pressurized aircraft and explosive material. Guess who got to scour the debris for aircraft bits for damage documentation?

Then and now: Split-screen video shows how car production has changed in 50 years

Apr. 05, 2019 - 1:07 - A new video released by SEAT's Martorell factory near Barcelona, Spain, gives a fascinating look at the evolution of car manufacturing over the past 50 years. As the split-screen video shows, jobs that used to be done by hand are now streamlined, with most of the heavy-lifting left to a team of 2,000 robots. The video was released to commemorate SEAT's next leap forward in auto manufacturing, as the plant begins production on electric vehicles.
