Magic Marketing

From: Lee Hines
To our one & only Magic Man,
In the never ending quest for brevity in our communication, I modestly propose the followingĀ  shorter version of ā€œMagic Dongleā€ might be appreciated by all involved users:
Simply transpose the first two letters of each word to form the word…
wait for it…ā€™MANGLEā€™.??

Thank me later, I knew you would like it.
Ciao,
Leeper


Dear Mr Hines

Thank you for your letter applying for a job in the Magic Timers marketingĀ  dept.
I do not think you are suited to this job.Ā  It is perhaps better you keep your day job.
If you wish to continue along a marketing or stand up comedy track I suggest that you study the writings of Anselmo Zeri, CHE, Allard , Fantham, etc

Bending the curve – SEN 2758

From:hermann andresen

Roger,
My experience with curved dihedral echoes my structural prof’s assessment that a small load on a curved beam can result in a larger or smaller curve, while with a straight beam it takes a much higher force to get any measurable deflection at all.

How about F1D?
How about bracing?

Hermann


Editorā€™s note
The article in FFn is by Ian Kaynes and is more concerned with the process of building a curved dbox wing.Ā  It relates to Ianā€™s F1E experience . Seeing Ian is a real engineer in the aeronautical field I would expect it to handle the loads.

And F1E and F1D are very different and very specialized fields while not a practitioner of either I would not expect bracing to apply to E.
