The bitter truth still remains black race are inferior
Oyinbo are over 200years ahead of us

braine:
COOL.... See those cute chics.. Ladies in Engineering are intelligent and such a turn on.

Nice one op, But try to show us the making of the machines used to making the aeroplanes if you can. The African problem is not in the making of everything the caucasian or japanese make, but how to process raw materials ourselves and how to manufacture equipments that is used to manufacturing the products and equipments for maintaining and servicing them.

Chai I swear e get as the photos dey do me for eyes

Nice one, am interested in those sexy chicks there , now back to the topic, who talk say Nigeria no fit produce this kin plane, abeg visit Edo make u see well packaged human plane wey dey fly only for night

Aitee1:

You're an Engineer? ?

Nice one. Me likey.

Huh nice one

Tah! Sharap its difficult ghon.

This is very interesting and educative, nice one op, I just wish this country can go towards industrialization and stop being dependent on finished imported goods

thecommunist:
it will take years and it will happen in stages. First we start with small crafts and helicopter then gradually move up.

And by the time we get to that stage air transport would've advanced beyond travel jets.

Wow. All I can say is wow. Good job Op

Hmph. Nobody was losing sleep over this. Vehicular machines are built largely the same: CAD, composites, steel, CNC, fabs, moulds etc.

Im less concerned about how planes are MADE, and more with how the darn things FLY.

for tje record, i know all about thrust, air flow, bernoulli, aerodynamics, control surfaces, etc.

But human flight will always remain magical.

And magnets too. How do they work?

200years kee....like 1000years would suffice

Fantastic! How long are we to this giant stride? Make us closer than we could have ever imagined Oh'God

Lol... We will continue to pray through daddy go and tb Joshua to tell god to end us our own plain

This will only work in Nigeria when the government provide basic amenities like stable electricity and security.

tuoyoojo:
Wat trips me is the way those ladies are working on the airplane. Making it seem so easy like say na amala dem dey prepare

I hope our engineers would take a cue from here and stop chasing those bank jobs


this should be in front page

You will be surprise to know that most of them are not Bsc engineers but just technicians/ craft men, trained specifically to do those jobs. Plane engines are mostly Roll Royce turbine engines and my own job which the skills I acquired through training is to maintain Roll Royce turbine engines for power generation not different from aero plane engines. I tell you what I only acquired my Bsc after years of working just to feel among. But I am really comfortable. Nigeria need to concentrate on technical education.

All these stuffs require baba nla mathematics.......geometry etc!!!! But did anyone read ao long it takes to finish the manufacturing of one?

This is one of the best posts I've seen on nairaland. Such an enlightening and inspiring read! Unlike these posts on sex, media, bad news and just plain rubbish, we see a wonderful post!
Industrial/production engineering(mechanical) really rocks.

I beg to ask...why can't we do this in Nigeria? Engineers and Engineering students in this forum, what is stopping us from coming together and finding ways of building these things rather than import old planes that are endangering the precious lives of Nigerians?

What's the big deal? I want to be part of those that will gear this country towards greater advancement in Technology and Development. We all need to be part of this big dream. Nigerians can do better. We can. Let us remove all these division based on religious and ethnic lines that are killing us. We are one and together Nigeria can do much better than this!

Looks like a Boeing 757 model

[size=13pt]What we should be doing in Nigeria....by the grace of God.[/size]

Call it self-denigration....but if they do it in Nigeria, I no enter bc Nigerians take things for granted.

Next thing dem go forget one rivet and say it is ok after all na God dey build plane.

Very informative thread. I hope there would be an aircraft manufacturing plant in Africa someday

It's a Sukkoi plane.

Very incisive post. I really learnt a whole lot reading this. Thanks OP. I think we need more educative posts like this making front page....

Aitee1:

Itoro abadie?

See oyinbo pple using their brain for better tins, na so so we go dey here dey do yahoo con dey form sey we smart pass them. Shoro niyen?

highly impressed. naija is still in d dark ages in control engineering.

CSTR2:
Tell me what is so difficult here that cannot be replicated in a sane Nigeria?

Be sincere , will you ever fly an aeroplane built or assembled in Nigeria?
Even cars that were manufactured by Innoson here in nigeria are being feared, not to talk of airplanes

Just like the cash involved, its not a small job

VickyRotex:
Wow. Sile12 the moment I saw the topic, I just knew it was your handwork. You are good at what you do. Keep up the informative and educative threads.

Thanks sis
Hw av u bn?
