    Dan Gryder Lockheed Electra Crash

    Jesus, wouldn't it be nice to have a single story here where Dan wasn't making things less safe. I hadn't heard this one.

    FBO Self Serve not being checked for a month.

    Another warm welcome to PoA. Dude thinks he might have a safety issue and he's called a pot stirrer... SMH @Biller2334 sumping is something that actually should be done, I agree. Getting it only at load time could easily not detect contaminants due to agitation from receiving the load. And I...

    Isabel Goyer goodbye? Where did it go??

    Wasn't her point that if you run only off a spreadsheet then you end up sinking the ship? It wasn't "money doesn't matter", it was more that you can't run a business using only a spreadsheet.

    Is AvWeb Done?

    Contrary datapoints: 1) Facebook is the least anonymous of the major platforms and still quite a cesspool 2) Reddit is very anonymous and is the least of a cesspool of the major platforms What the internet lacks (mostly) is accountability. It's pretty unusual for someone (at least normal...

    Watching the Blue Angels is Unhealthy

    How is that a boondoggle? Ferrys like that seem like an ideal target for electrification.

    Watching the Blue Angels is Unhealthy

    Even as a kid, you want to inspire me to join the military, show me the capabilities of the C130, or other airplanes I might actually get to fly. In typing that, I'm realizing how literally true it was in my life. I considered the military, but as a kid I really only knew about the fighters...

    Watching the Blue Angels is Unhealthy

    I have no use for the modern jet teams either. I don't understand the appeal of the noise nor the setbacks that diminish viewing points for all the other acts in the show as well. For me they could all be cancelled, never return and I'd enjoy the airshows much more. That said, I don't write...

    AirVenture craziness - **** show

    I use an adblocker, so he makes no money off me. Youtube doesn't pay for views, it pays for ads.

    Dan Gryder banned from Airventure

    Interesting that a Bruce Baier appears in the 2010 EAA annual report as a museum volunteer. Now I'm really curious what happened with that one!

    Dan Gryder banned from Airventure

    Google tells me that defamation has to be false. In this case, nothing is false. It's true that he's been banned. That card doesn't say why or when, just that he's been banned. We have a few lawyers here, maybe one can cross check me.

    [NA but interesting] Big cylindrical slide rule - anybody ever used one?

    If it even has a battery. Tons of them have solar cells.

    Gaston’s 2024, who’s in? Sept. 27-29. 3M0 or KBPK.

    Funny how you can recognize someone by their writing. I immediately knew who wrote that based on his writings on another flying forum. He's been indecipherable for a long, long time.

    Wings Over Edenton 2024

    I read that as "Edmonton" probably a dozen times before clicking through, seeing the poster and wondering what the hell they were thinking about trying to host an airshow in Edmonton in October.

    I don't like pepper because it burns. Hence putting a rosemary butter on later as a substitute for those floral notes.

    Good steaks still benefit from salt and maybe a rosemary butter.

    I think it's time to quit Hertz

    Hasn't for decades... Long enough for this joke to work in the 1900's.
