That sounds like experience speaking. Less of a worry for us 50 somethings though. 😜

WOW, never thought there would be such a disruption of airflow from the top of the intake nacelle!

[Bibs]

It's during the take-off phase so there will be some angle of attack but I was very surprised it's not been mitigated against somehow. 

[Sparky]

We had a huge (similar) problem with the 757, as angle of attack on take-off would cause a stall at the RB211 intake.  Revised procedure was 100% throttle on T/O, which always made things exciting.

The colourful stuff is a transient iso-surface of the Q-criterion, it's a measure of the vorticity of the air. Simulation was done using LES (large eddy simulation)

To continue with flying machines:

I recently rewatched a few episodes. It pains me to admit they were not as good as I remembered...

It's a thing, the phone is using the Depth of Field sensors and can see through thin plastics! 

[Escape]

So when can we expect an app that can see through fabric? Might have to get me a smart phone after all then!

They're patching the software to exclude access to the ToF sensors. I reckon it's real, it makes sense.

That's nothing new. The technology's been available for years.

Straight back to  childhood and our living room in the early eighties. Great bit of music too. Really haunting when I was a kid!

[LotusLeftLotusRight]

Used to switch over whenever I heard that or the Panorama music.
