    Not political but interesting -

    A guy just can't win. Fly a fancy, new jet - they say you're a wasteful billionaire and out of touch with us commoners. Fly an older jet - you have bad taste and are just pretending to be rich. I'd hate for the authors of that article to discover that most people driving Porsche sports cars...

    Insurance Insanity (Non-Aviation)

    Health insurance has turned into (maybe always was?) such a scam. Supposedly, you get insurance to cover medical bills that would be too expensive without it, but then everything medical goes up by a cost factor of what seems like five or twenty because insurance. :crazy::crazy:

    34, feeling lost, lonely

    You didn't have a requirement to spend the first several years of your marriage travelling and having fun without kids. :) (It also changes the equation slightly if the woman has already had a child, as conception of further children is easier at advanced maternal age than first conceptions.)...

    34, feeling lost, lonely

    Well, he wants to have children of his own. I know there's a few edge cases of women having first children into their early forties, but if you want a family, going older is a stupid thing to do.

    34, feeling lost, lonely

    To be fair to the 30+ year old women in a rush to get married and have kids, they really don't have time to date for two years, be engaged for another, and spend the first three years of marriage on travelling and having fun. Every year after 30 increases difficulty of conception, chances of...

    34, feeling lost, lonely

    As a woman, I, too, wonder when a woman is not married and over 30, but that is mostly because almost every woman I've known has expressed a desire to be married by then. It does raise legitmate questions as to why she hasn't found a husband. There are also legitmate reasons why a woman over 30...

    ID this aircraft

    There aren't any currently registered NH-1s in the FAA database that I can see, but there is a Nighthawk NH-2. It's listed as experimental with a turboshaft engine. It has 4 seats. It appears to be possibly the only one of its kind, and has the N number of N86BZ. Some pro photographer uploaded a...

    "Not that big of a deal" is snapping the back off (no tools required) and popping the battery out, to me anyway. Using a hair dryer to remove the screen and other dismantling processes gives me the heebie-jeebies. :redface:

    I just went and read about how to replace an iPhone 13's battery. That was downright terrifying. :eek2: If you do that yourself, you're braver than I am...

    Deferring Marriage and a Family to fly professionally

    Good decisions for them, or good decisions for you? There are plenty of dads who are airline/military/truck drivers that can't be there every night and there are plenty of ways to still be a present and active parent even when you're not there physically. I've worked with my fair share of...
