"Hmmmm I think that if that engineer gave a versatile wrench turner all the parts to build that plane, that wrench turner can have ideas of his own and just as easily take it all to his fabrication shop and build a boat." My step father has psent hte last 20+ years in the Air Force as a JEM. He's worked on everything from T-37s to B-1s and B-2s. I'd have to ask him to make sure, but I think the only engines that he has never had his fingers in are the newer ones for the Raptor, but then again, he's setting policies now, not just merely following them. He'll be the first one to admit that while he can probably fix just about anything, and trust me, he's fixed engines that were screwed up from strange things, he would have no clue how to go about designing one. He understand sthe principles of how the engines work and how the parts go together, but there is very little chance that he could create one from scrap. Oh, and by the by... QUITTING SMOKING BLOWS GOATS!!!!!!!! *grumble*
