That engineer in the red striped shirt wasn't looking very happy...a bit concerned in fact.

it went really far almost bottoming the rig, which results in fines from Cranfield Test Centre(er).

Not sure if this has passed or not, in fact, doubt it. Its bad to pass on your first attempt since it suggests you've left something on the table so to speak. In other words, you could have used less material read less weight, mfg time and cost.
