[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] <blockquote>"I have seen people here refer to old airplanes. I know older airplanes are in existence. There is a very good reason for this. Many of these older planes, such as the DC-3 Dakota, fly in environments which are more benign than anything the shuttle will encounter. The shuttle is under more stress than other piece of hardware on our planet. She is required to be blasted into space at tremendous velocities and land at tremendous velocities while contending with the forces of gravity and heat."</blockquote> Yeah, and airplanes are under a lot more stress than cars. All three vehicles are built to withstand the forces being placed on them, so it isn't a very useful analogy for your purposes. [/QB][/QUOTE]
