I think the truth is that engineers are always brutally honest because they have to be, it doesn't matter which discipline. A wing being an inch out for fitting or a computer build being done wrong results in the same consequences! E.g. it don't ruddy work!
I think this is why I love being an engineer, PC doesn't cut the mustard in the real world Cool

For some reason, that reminded me of Mel Gibson's line in Air America.

Rob Diehl: You know more about it than American intelligence Gene!
Gene Ryack: Rob, I wish you wouldn't use the words American Intelligence to describe what it is you do!  Roll Eyes Grin

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
