That's fantastic! Although I still can't figure out what propeller man is doing. Is he just carry around a spare part?

It's the technical chief of the ship ( golden dress = flying crew ) ,
ready for the final "walk" around before flight ...

Edit:
was there really a question about that
"makes it sense" - thing ??

Utterly BRILLIANT!

Love the guy half way up the ladder who's totally ignoring the fact that the mooring lines aren't really tight and his ladder may fall off the ship at any moment!  ;D  ;D  ;D

Agree with the Man in the Hat! :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:

Kit, the ladder is obviously made of Alumelast™ - a complex alloy of aluminium that senses where the ends are in contact with a non-organic substance & stretches/contracts to ensure they stay where they're meant to. This can make climbing an Alumelast™ ladder tricky until you get used to having to frequently alter your steps to match the changing gaps between the rungs. Alumelast™ does not work if in contact with a surface such as grass.

Truly wonderful. Congratulations.

One thought on the next propeller backpack. (There is going to be one. right?) Move an arm so it is stretched out forward, and glue the hand to the bit the guy is fiddling with. Maybe inside a open panel to give the joint strength. Swap the prop for a clear disc, so it looks like it's spinning. Maybe keep a stationary one on the ground, so we know it is a spinning prop.
Cheers.

In FACT the ladder is hanging on a small hook inside the ship  :mellow:  but if it is hanging free the weight of the guy put it out of balance what is looking not so good .  So i be pragmatic and keep it this way ...

But it is not Spinning.

But it does spin, right? It's not just a static laser scanner?

That's why I offered my thought "on the next propeller backpack"
Cheers.

Oh, of COURSE! How stupid of me not to have realised that, so sorry.  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:                                       ;)
