Here you can see the 777 final assembly line on the left, and the 787 final assembly line on the right. The camera view is basically looking south to north along the office stack separating the two lines. the office stacks are kind of castellated so that the cranes can pass through from line to line. You can see the yellow crane pass-through in this picture.

That's my office. Each segment of that mural is a bay door that opens wide enough to let airplanes out. The furthest bay on the left is 747, then 767, 777, all the way down to 787 on the far right. We call it "The Factory" The near shore in the foreground is Mukilteo, and the far shore in the background is Whidbey island.
When they first built this plant, they had rain inside the building before they got the HVAC sorted out. I average about 6 miles a day walking because everything is so spread out.

You need a guy who's skilled at everything from project management to component-level troubleshooting, experienced with large projects and major mechanical structures, and doesn't have an ME degree? I'm really jonesing to get back to the left coast...

^ that gives me an idea.

Years ago, I owned a Commodore 64.
It was a great computer. Came with nearly everything you could want... except a disk drive. If you wanted one of those, it was an external box that sat on the desk next to the machine.
How far we've come in 30 years...

^ Nightmare fuel.
In other news, an old video I shot of a co-worker of mine capturing a bat which had been haunting WLLD-FM control room for four days, and then releasing it outside.

I have had to catch a bat in the powerplant I work in twice. Once they get near the generators, their echo location doesn't work anymore and they just drop to the ground and look extremely confused and lost. As soon as you get them outside, they are back to normal.
