Tornado - mainly, but most types - even parts of Spitfire and Lancaster - ended up as a contractor for BA working on Boeing 747's,767's and 777's.

That's pretty neat. I love aircraft, but I'm actually studying aerospace with a concentration in astronautics instead.

That's really cool - are you thinking of venturing into the great beyond, or a ground job with NASA?

I would love to someday be an astronaut, but right now I'm focusing on design and thermal analysis. The research organization on campus I'm a part of actually currently has two satellites in orbit.

Well, you guys are also currently developing the Skylon SSTO, which is making big news with the successful development of the SABRE engine.

I was in London the week after Brexit. I saw Boris Johnson in the tube.

It made me laugh back in 2016 when Trump came to power and became President, the Uk took the micky and the Americans replied well you have Boris as foreign secretary. With Brexit on top of all this - I really thought the world has gone mad.
