So I have an "homework" assignment for my Flight Dynamics class that's due every Tuesday morning at 8:00. I put quotation marks around homework becuase it's not homework like you think of homework. Conventional homework may take you one or two nights to get done, working 2-3 hours a night.

Nay my friends, that is not my homework. If I could only be so lucky. My "homework" is a weekly engineering report on a collection of concepts that will be covered the next week (as in, we have to learn it before we are taught it) and the complete histories of at least 5 obscure airplanes that you have never even heard of (Fokker/VFW 614 anyone?) My "homework" takes at least 15 hours to complete every week, and this is a 3 hour class.

Now you'll understand my joy when I tell you that I am done with my report and it's not even Monday yet.
