As an aviation maintenance student, I’ve spent the last week diving deep into the engineering of the SR-71.

Beyond the speed, the technical challenges—like the titanium expanding at Mach 3 and the J58 engines shifting from turbojets to ramjets—are absolutely insane. I put together a short technical documentary focusing on these specific maintenance and engineering hurdles.

I’d love to get some feedback from the community on the engine analysis part!

I am currently studying aviation maintenance and researching the mechanical stress on the CH-47 airframe during Mount Hope III.

Lifting an 8.5-ton Mi-25 in those conditions must have pushed the limits of the pendulum effect. I visualized the physics and engine limits in a short project here: [BURAYA YOUTUBE LİNKİNİ YAPIŞTIR]

Would love to hear from any CH-47 techs or loadmasters on how this kind of dynamic stress is managed in real life.
