Description: Aircraft mechanics: the unsung heroes who keep us flying high, one wrench and sarcastic comment at a time. This funny text-based design lists the quirks, traits, and truths of working with aircraft mechanics - like their love for coffee, tools, and telling you “it’ll take five minutes” (it never does). Whether you’re an aviation professional, an aircraft mechanic yourself, or just someone who knows and loves one, this design hits the mark. Perfect for hangar crews, A&P mechanics, and anyone who understands that aviation runs on grease, caffeine, and a lot of swearing. Wear it to the shop or gift it to your favorite wrench-turner.

Description: Frustrated by the government's inaction, one of the minesweeper's crew, former naval engineer Kenji Noda, devises a plan to destroy Godzilla by luring it out to Sagami Bay before surrounding it with Freon tanks and rupturing them, lowering the water's buoyancy and sinking it, letting the resultant water pressure crush it. Should the plan fail, balloons will be inflated under Godzilla to force it back up, killing it through explosive decompression. To enact his plan, Noda has recruited navy veterans to crew disarmed IJN destroyers. Shikishima recruits Tachibana to repair a broken-down Kyushu J7W Shinden fighter. He plans to kill Godzilla in a suicide attack by flying into its mouth and detonating the explosive charges on board.
Description: The Kyūshū J7W Shinden is a World War II Japanese propeller-driven prototype fighter plane with wings at the rear of the fuselage, a nose-mounted canard, and a pusher engine. Developed by the Imperial Japanese Navy as a short-range, land-based interceptor, the J7W was a response to Boeing B-29 Superfortress raids on the Japanese home islands. For interception missions, the J7W was to be armed with four forward-firing 30 mm type 5 cannons in the nose.
Description: Fokker was a Dutch aircraft manufacturer named after its founder, Anthony Fokker. The company operated under several different names, starting out in 1912 in Schwerin, Germany, moving to the Netherlands in 1919. During its most successful period in the 1920s and 1930s, it dominated the civil aviation market. Fokker went into bankruptcy in 1996, and its operations were sold to competitors.
