iktA380 vs 747
JerkingassDoes this continue to work at scale? Making everything proportional and such… I would guess they had to significantly increase the jet propulsion to compensate.
Nothing in the world really works at infinite scale because the size of atoms doesn’t change. In order for something to scale infinitely it also needs the environment in which it’s found to scale along with it.
Paranoid FactoidThis comment doesn’t actually answer OP’s aeronautics engineering question at scales of human life and plane manufacturing.
Who’s talking about scales of human life? He wanted to know if one could just keep scaling planes and what that would require, and since no else had said anything I gave what answer I could which did contain some helpful information on that subject.
No, he didn’t. Nobody is talking about scaling airplanes to atomic or galactic scales. There’s an actual answer to OP’s question, which an aeronautical engineer could factually answer. You gave a worthless, ‘I am very smart’ non-answer and now double down as if OP was asking about some platonic ideal rather than a genuine engineering question.
Thanks!
