Haruhi questioned the logic behind a design that required two separate levers to be pulled in unison during emergency situations but quickly shook her head to focus on the immediate.

While I can't speak about the other services, I encountered this kind of engineer decision plenty of times in the Air Force. For example in order to open the random on most of our C-130's you had to disconnect a critical cooling hose, and then reach around an awkward positioned piece of equipment to get to a bolt that had to be removed, one of four to open the blasted random, and then when put back in you had to torque it down. Or when they placed a critical junction strip between two bulkheads that if it had to be replaced required taking about major structure pieces. Engineers often design stuff for a perfect world where things do not break, or require maintenance.
But their greatest accomplishments is designing bolts that you can not remove without cussing at them. Weird but seemed to be true on certain bolts regardless of who was trying to break it free
oh ok then ^^.Nashoba said:They ejected the positron cannon core that had a stuck shell that was slowing losing containment, its all good.
