Why would your employer know or care about your business dealings outside the scope of your employment? Do they also scrutinize the process when employees buy or sell houses, boats, or cakes at the church bake sale?
Yup. Pick the color, display style, and/or price you want. Heck, for $10, buy one for every seat in the plane...

Why do you seem to think there must be a dependency between "magnitude of turbulence" or "direction of turbulence" with surface winds or winds aloft?
A pot of boiling water is turbulent, but it's not moving laterally. The same thing can happen with air in the sky.

Some of his presentation is clickbait-y ("Stay tuned for the shocking reason...") and his voice sometimes comes across as a little strident, but if you can filter that out his technical commentary is usually thoughtful. Unlike many other YT aviation content creators, Hoover actually has...
Since the advent of ADSB, maybe it wouldn't be as hard to "challenge after the fact" as it was 20 years ago.
Probably not likely during a job interview, but if the FAA or an insurance company ever really wanted to dig in, nowadays they probably could.
The story linked in the OP says the plane "erupted into flames". Perhaps that's an exaggeration, but that's still a bit inconsistent with a fuel starvation situation. There might be more to the story.
I know it's rare in a gravity-fed Cessna, but maybe the student pilot didn't have the fuel...
You and I came to two different conclusions re: the accident flight track. To me, the slight zig-zags in the last 25 min look more like small (possibly erratic?) oscillations around his direct course rather than effective weather deviations. The rapid altitude excursion at the end is either a...
Yeah, those NPR guys--always prattling off nothing but lies, lies, lies. Didn't they recently settle for $787 million for spouting lies about someone rather than risk a more substantial loss in court? Oh wait, no, I think that was someone else.
OK: Apparently we're agreed that there should be some government oversight. We may disagree about what part of gov't should do that or how much gov't should do that, but clearly there should be something.
The OP was about whether or not there should be user fees to pay for that oversight...
Isn't this akin to asking what the best typewriter is? I have not had a need for a graphing calculator since getting out of school, but I would expect that any modern smartphone would have multiple apps to choose from that could run circles around any standalone calculator. Unless smartphones...
Other government agencies--with the exception of the military and NASA--have zero expertise in the operation of rocketry. The military is not in the business of general oversight of private entities, nor would any reasonable person want them to be. NASA is also not primarily a regulatory...
(Spoiler alert: Part of why SpaceX is "doing things right" is due to government regulation.)
Okay, so you agree there needs to be some government here. Its funding can pretty much come from general taxes (like income, capital gains, etc.), user fees (fuel taxes, etc.) or from some...
