I didn't think it was too bad, there were more than a few attempts to explain properly how things work, eg, theory of flight explained using a rotating 744, the "swapping ends" bit, the engineer walk-round on the 380, the brake-rider on another 380, the stuff about maximising runway utlilisation etc.
Agreed.

My only gripe (apart from the hilarious "baseball bats" bit) was the overuse of the fashionable "meanwhile, back at ..." style of production/direction where the topic needs to switch every couple of minutes because the viewer is judged to have an attention span only marginally better than a goldfish.
