  • smal world!

    The company I work for just joined with a swiss owned company, and now we are working with their german division (previously our competitor).

    So I am in a meeting with their engineering and r&D guy, and after a while his laptop switches to a screen saver with hang gliders flying about.
    So it turns out he has been flying hang gliders from the start, a pioneer, built his own gliders at the beginning. He knows some folks that I know etc etc.

    Later we are talking plugs and sockets, and I gave him a sample of what we are using. He remarks that it is similar to the connector he uses for the brushless motors on his model glider. So then I pull my trex450 lipo out of my coat pocket...

    Uncanny.
