Actually, he was all natural- no cyber. He was just wiz at sticking his arm into places designed so you shouldn't be able to stick your arm in there. ;D

I swear, some of the places they put components (and naturally they're the ones we have to access half the time) you've got to be a contortionist to reach them.

Is this the whole "black box" technology we all heard about during the first Gulf War???

Most of what I worked on is also found on civilian aircraft.  (Airspeed/altitude, pitch/roll/yaw sensors, that kind of stuff)

By "black box" tech, I meant the modular designs that were so publicized on the Apaches during the First Gulf War. I remember a reporter likening the Apache to a Lego helicopter. You have a problem with a part, just unplug it, and plug another one in. It kind of rreminded me of the way Omni-Mechs are described in Battletech.

Was that system as simple and all-encompassing as the press made it out to be??

I hate to be the voice of reason, but this has nothing to do with the topic.
