The scenario is that you’re calculating Qd given a static average latency. Absent that, this formula doesn’t give you a way to compute Qd. What is the average amount of time to service a request in a system where the queue depth is growing without bound?
I guess it depends on what you mean by "major". Pumps, injectors, spark plugs, etc tend to be redundant. You have airspeed & altitude. None of this is really specific to rotorcraft, though.
Ehhh no ethical consumption and all that but I’m gonna have to go ahead and disagree with that last sentence. If I become aware of a business treating workers poorly I’m inclined to find an alternative.
Indeed you can’t rely on GPS. But…the absence of GPS for more than a few hours is pretty weird. An automatic reboot and maybe nuke could be appropriate for some users. I guess then the faraday cage also needs a fake gps signal to defeat this.
That's true, that is a notable difference. But the presence of such firmware can still ruin your day in terms of repairability. Maybe you can't just replace that part because you need some special software to configure the firmware that you can only get if you're a certified mechanic.
It depends on the role. IMO the bar is pretty low for many engineering roles. Determining “that you're a reasonable person when faced with interpersonal difficulties” is usually good enough.
I find it very difficult to get competing offers in such a way that they care to outbid each other. Usually it’s just a nominally similar but differently structured offer.
