A video of the manufacture of a Learjet 60XR.
One of the most engaging documentaries I've seen. Usually I'm fidgeting after the first three minutes.
I love the order and precision that characterize the aviation industry.
I'm sure it's just a matter of time before the Gracey bros. schedule their own trip to Wichita.

    Agreed, very engaging.

    I ended up watching all 44 minutes of it, though I had planned to just watch it for a few minutes.

    It always looks like more fun when someone else is doing it.
