    Buy Me Some Peanuts And Cracker Jacks

    Most of the MLB stadiums want you to use the MLB app on your phone to order your food and have it delivered to your seat. Pay via the app and you're good to go. It's like that with the minor leagues as well, but they use the MiLB app. Even OU does it at their football stadium. I don't have...

    Air-to-Air Cessna 140A

    Most people probably think it's the crimson one with OU on it lol.

    Always better when that Texas flag is hidden. ;)

    91.126(b)(1) - Yes, Virginia, it is regulatory.

    What part of UNCONTROLLED AIRSPACE don't you guys understand?! :p

    Aviators who are not pilots

    I can see the FAA investigating and then reprimanding the instructors for essentially skirting the intent of the regulations rather than any actual violations of the regs themselves. However, it certainly sounds like the guy was just fine as a pilot, but was afoul of the regulations on a...

    Shocked and speechless

    For when you're a grower, not a show-er. Air compressor sold separately.

    Three brothers with no PPL considering purchasing a plane

    Probably should all make sure you can pass the medical exam first, before committing to the Private license and aircraft purchase. You can fly under BasicMed but that still involves getting a clean bill of health. Registering the plane in an LLC and getting an insurance policy to cover all of...

    Looking for a 2 seater, I know this is a lot to ask for...

    You'd think they'd be fine with something slow. If you want to build COM hours, it seems like it would work just fine to do it in a simple bug smasher that takes 4 hours to do a 250-mile XC, lol.

    Gary Larson had a number of the aviation-themed Far Side comics.

    Live rifle fire across an open runway

    Well, at least in our tournament, the drive off the tee box was done with an AR-15 using blank cartridges and a golf ball launcher threaded onto the barrel. Fun, but harder than you'd think to aim/control a golf ball that is more akin to a to a knuckleball thrown out at absurd velocities.

    Lets make Friday 'Joke Day'!

    I still see comments in some long range forums where the new guys come in and ask for the best gun in .300WM or similar. Yeah, go ahead and buy the magnum large caliber rifle with a Leupold or Vortex and try to get good at hitting steel on an 800yd and 1K yd target, lol. The guys who practice...

    Lets make Friday 'Joke Day'!

    I know, I just meant that a basic rifle without all of the silly aids and uniform attachments would be sufficient. Technology improves over time (material composition of skis, pole vaulting, etc.) but the base of the apparatus is still the same. Having a custom-barreled/actioned rifle is fine...

    Oh c'mon. You wouldn't want to see them handle a Davis Gun in competition?!

    Leslie Nielsen was classic in that movie.

    Lets make Friday 'Joke Day'!

    I honestly hate that all of the gear is even allowed. Give them a set of open sights, and a plane rifle (or pistol) without any stabilizers, arm sleeves, or other goofy add-ons. Same with archery. Use a basic compound bow without all of the accuracy aids. Heck, make it a long bow and call it...

    Live rifle fire across an open runway

    You places yer bets and takes yer chances. We've done it in rural Kansas where we're shooting across a rural road with nothing but farmland for miles in that direction. Just use a spotter to ensure there's nothing coming down the gravel road. The chances of an accident aren't zero, but close...
