    6Y9 2024 Fly in/camp out

    Welllll.... It's starting to look less likely that we will make it this year. My medical expired at the end of May and my BFR was due at the end of July. Unfortunately, this week is the first week I've been home M-F since the end of June, with more travel scheduled for the next two weeks, so...

    [NA] Extending fiber optic line?

    OK.. I re-read my original post and it was too long and complicated. Distilled version: Does anyone have experience extending a fiber optic line (bonus points if it's AT&T fiber in a residential setting)? I'm trying to decide if I want to run ethernet (Cat5e/6) from where fiber comes into my...

    What happens in Sidnaw, stays in Sidnaw... because there is very limited cell coverage. ;)

    Mayo + Ketchup on the fries and malt vinegar on the fish for the UK trifecta.

    Scott Welch, my flight instructor and owner of Byerly Aviation, Gone West

    Ah man. Sorry to hear that. Spending that much time in a close space working on that many ratings, you get to know someone whether you want to or not. Sounds like you had a good connection and I'm sure you both learned more than just about flying from each other during that time. The good thing...

    Kids at OSH24?

    My parents (being the good Papa and Nana that they are) are taking my 10 y/o son and niece up Weds and Thurs, but I am unable to make it at all this week. :(

    Helicopter IMC through …. Locusts??

    We had something similar happen when I was working ground crew for a cropdus... ahem... aerial applicator ~20 years ago. We were spraying an outbreak of soybean aphids and those little buggers would hover shortly above the crop, right about the height of the spraying pass. Being ground crew, I...

    shave cream - who is using what

    My current iteration is a Supply.co single blade razor and brush. I used the shave cream that came with the Supply 'intro kit' until it was gone. I didn't like having to hassle with prepping the shaving cream in the cup every time I shaved and it felt like I wasted a lot in each batch. Now I'm...

    Out-Swinging Exterior Doors

    When we were getting ready to remodel our main floor last year, we had a friend who has an eye for interior design come check out our ideas. One thing she suggested that I hadn't thought of was swapping the current in-swinging French doors with out-swinging doors to provide more room in the...

    Moving to Idaho!

    Love that the CdA area. Wife and I did an anniversary trip to the other side of the lake (Hope, ID) a few years back, but passed through CdA on the way to/from Spokane. It still sits near the top of the list of ideal places to 'settle down' in my mind.

    [NA] I don't understand One Drive

    FTFY. I constantly tell people how much I hate computers, despite the fact that I work on/with them every. single. day. I look forward to retirement day when these things go away from my daily life. Back on topic... What I really 'love' about OD is how painfully slow it is to browse my LOCAL...

    Sat 6/15/2024 - naked women, free beer and everyone gets a puppy

    Welcome to #MarriedWithKids My med lapsed at the end of last month. My BFR is coming up due at the end of next month.

    Any Rans Builders or flyers here?

    Funny. I just came here to search for any posts about the S21 OB. For whatever reason, I've been seeing them pop up on YT videos recently and they seem interesting. A little disappointed (but not surprised) to hear that they aren't sized well for larger-than-average folks. I'm 6'7", so I'm used...

    Airline passengers DON'T want to sit in the exit row?

    There probably is some weird "the doors fall off" mentality among the masses. Also, some of the exit rows don't recline and some of the seats are different than the regular seats (less padding, narrower, etc.). I'm a frequent exit-rower (6'7" tall, so I physically do not fit in a standard...

    Therma Pen

    It's labor intensive, but look up a pot sticker recipe. I usually use ground pork, but I bet ground chicken could be made to work, too.

    Therma Pen

    Another vote for sticking with what works. Thermapen is my go-to for my own use and for 'dude gifts'.

    Electric Lawn Tools

    Yep. Team yellow here, too. I fought hard against electric yard tools but after wrenching on two different models of gas trimmers over the years, I finally relented and got the battery string trimmer. I upsized the string by half a step (I think I read that tip on here somewhere) and it does...

    Tesla Pickup Unveil

    Saw one in the parking lot at a Braves game the other night. This one looked longer than the previous ones I have seen. Are there different variants - like an 'XL' version? Looked like it would be a pain to deal with in metro parking lots due to it's size - and I drive a '14 Silverado which...

    Osh 2024 NOTAM is out

    Interesting. So instead of saying "Do loops around Lake _____ to hold", they say "Go back to point XYZ and come back in and try again", which essentially makes the whole approach route a combination arrival/hold route.
