I got to see that one in person at the Boeing plant when they were building it. Very cool.
So is this building. I've walked it from one end to the other. They are fixing to add 600 feet to it so they can get 10 planes in the building rather than 6.
Not my picture. They don't allow personal photography on the plant. They will loan you a Boeing digital camera to shoot necessary pictures on the plant and then transfer the pictures to your media after they have checked them.

The FSAE car I built had a similar seating position. Eye level was 24" off the ground, bottom of seat was 1.5" and legs where 8.5". The car had a CG with driver of 6.7". It was very comfortable to drive and sensing Gforces wasn't an issue. The worst partwas visibility around normal heigh cones was terrible because you where basically shorter than them.
