See  Nuclear Weapons Career Field Education and Training Plan , Department of the Air Force, April 1, 2018. An Air Force nuclear weapons specialist "inspects, maintains, stores, handles, modifies, repairs, and accounts for nuclear weapons, weapon components, associated equipment, and specialized/general test and handling equipment."

I’ll skip to the good part: It’s an engine of the type used on Flight 11’s aircraft, not Flight 175’s, like the FBI said when it gave the relic on loan to the Newseum, who now displays it wrong in their FBI exhibit – and has been for years (since 2011). N334AA (Flight 11) had 2  General Electric CF6-80A2  engines ( Also 2. ) and N612UA (Flight 175) had 2  Pratt & Whitney JT9D-7R4D  engines. ( Also 2.,   3. )   Source, left :  Photo  by Ruth Ann.

Margaret Atwood’s 10 Rules For Writing Fiction 1. Take a pencil to write with on airplanes. Pens leak. But if the pencil breaks, you can’t sharpen it on the plane, because you can’t take knives with you. Therefore: take two pencils. 2. If both pencils break, you can do a rough sharpening job with a nail file of the metal or glass type. 3. Take something to write on. Paper is good. In a pinch, pieces of wood or your arm will do. 4.

(This is likely to work better if you can hold your own.) But you don’t know who the reader is, so it’s like shooting fish with a slingshot in the dark. What ­fascinates A will bore the pants off B. 7. You most likely need a thesaurus, a rudimentary grammar book, and a grip on reality. This latter means: there’s no free lunch. Writing is work. It’s also gambling. You don’t get a pension plan. Ot
