Hindsight
The discussions are very helpful in that it makes the individual builder think about the issues at hand, that alone,...is worthwhile.
Food for thought....
...Imagine a transatlantic crossing in a Viking Longboat or centuries later, a Spanish Caravelle.
...The thrill of breaking the 80 mph barrier in a Steam Locomotive.
....a mission at 10,000' over the Verdun in a wood and fabric airplane.
....in my own lifetime, today's shuttle compared to Glenns spam can.
All of which were the pinacle of technology in it's own time.
We do have the advantage of hindsight don't we? Nice to be able to benefit from it.
