Funny you should send this link. In a past life, I flew gliders
while I was stationed in the UK. I watched it the other day and
it reminded me of the great time I had.
If you watch it to the end, the same guy has a link to his
'MakerBot' additive manufacturing machine. This is also neat,
and brings me to my current day job making AM parts. The MakerBot
is a home assembled AM machine that you can link to your computer
and make just about anything you can design in CAD. Or you can
download parts from Thingiverse.

I was just going to send this to Joe (A) since he's got the pilot
background but thought y'all might enjoy this too. It's a 4 min
video that seemed like only a minute or two to me. What a thrill this must
be.
