Neighbors' cats are more fun. We have a couple who visit us--Black Kitty and Striped Kitty. We have NEVER fed them, though in the past we did have a water bowl. We NEVER let them in the house. They come to the slider and meow. If we see them, we go outside, give 'em some pets and that's it...

November-December-January are WA's and OR's worst weather. I live in WA and have flown around the nearby states often. Back a few years, I left on an extensive solo VFR cross country in early October and returned in early November. Both ways, my planned route was along the Cascades west side...

I'm thinking of fitting my Warrior with a refueling port and wondering what to expect as I snuggle up to a KC-135.

Tankless water heaters need a minimum flow to keep them cool and prevent them from burning up, hence your issue.

On a dead calm day ... Since wake turbulence vortices spin off the wingtips, spread out, and sink, what sort of turbulence is directly under the heavy's fuselage?

"Out climb" can mean multiple things. "Angle of climb" or "Rate of climb." In this case, the applicable specification is the Angle of climb between your average GA spamcan and a big heavy. Also a GA plane lifts off thousands of feet before a heavy. That also factors into the angles calculation.

Bought one of these a month ago. The only part of the unit that gets hot is the glass. The base of the pot and the stand remain cool. The heating system is completely encased and insulated in the pot's base. It's FAST! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C5Z8VCHX

I had a regular non-aviation job and retired. I learned to fly 25 years ago and now write novels and fly for fun. I've flown my tiny airplane across the USA. Just a local pilot with a small plane I purchased 23 years ago. Similar hobbyists. We are called "private pilots" as opposed to...

"dispare?" Really?

Even with the explanations, I still don't get it. It's not funny. It's just random photos thrown together.

Somehow, living in a geologically active area having 50 gallons of potable water in my basement gives me a warm fuzzy. Would definitely put one in a rental.

Good luck with your training. Where's your home drome?

This AD does not change my standard operating procedure a whit. It doesn't even change my log entry. I've always done oil analysis at each oil change, and I've cut open every oil filter and inspected for metal and carbon. Carbon crushes under a fingernail.

Two questions come to mind: DC or the real Washington (WA)? You bought the plane for your PPL training, and you flew it home?

In 2011, I had my O-320-D3G overhauled at Zephyr HIlls in Florida. I am based in WA State. Still extremely happy. https://www.zephyrengines.com/

I've hit wake turbulence at altitude. Small 737 making approach to KPAE (Paine Field, WA) six or seven miles from the runway. I flew under its flight path at right angles about 60 seconds later heading west to Whidbey Island. It was a sudden roll excursion, compensated for. It was dangerous only...

New STC purchasers at KRHV and E16 get FULL refunds of the STC purchase price and an AI will be made available on 02 November to sign off the 337. The offers are good until midnight 01 November. Run! Don't walk.

Hence, takeoff or approach, stay above a big, heavy's flight path.

My good friend bought a Rivian RS1. It's HUGE. He has a wife and two kids--one graduated from college and the other a junior or senior--one step away from empty nesters. It's 0-60 2.6 second acceleration is scary. I hate riding in it. It makes him a worse driver. He loves quoting the stat and...
