Boohoo for him, he might only get 15 mil this year instead of 22. Give me a break.

https://www.faa.gov/ame_guide/app_process/exam_tech/item48/amd/gd Looks like it will be deferred since it was less than 5 years ago, prob with some more info required. Others more knowledgeable may chime in on what that info may be. It would behoove you to find an AME who has handled...

Yeah and he was probably 18 when he did that. Same guy is now 97. Mobility may have changed slightly over 79 years

I should have said they are a primary customer. They are a huge fraction of SpaceX’s launch revenue and just like Southwest can place demands on Boeing designing the 737 as the launch (no pun intended) customer despite not being the sole customer, NASA has enormous power if it chose to use it.

It is absolutely not silly. NASA is basically the sole customer of this product, they absolutely can put interoperability requirements on the suit interface if they wanted. It’s really no different from Boeing having a common interface for engine electrical systems on the 787. Both the GEnx and...

Seriously can you guys get a new joke? The same old recycled “haha air persons” is so overplayed.

How is it possible that NASA didn’t mandate a single spacesuit design and common interface for the capsule? This seems like systems engineering 101

https://www.faa.gov/ame_guide/media/HIV%20Spec%20Sheet%20Under%202%20years.pdf Seems like it’s part of the protocol. At least one FAA study claims they have observed statistically significant higher rates of neurocognitive decline in HIV positive patients, but the literature on this is mixed...

*gestures at F-35 program* Those in glass houses…

Another day, another Boeing cockup https://fortune.com/2024/08/13/boeing-new-problems-737s-further-slowing-deliveries/

True but Textron doesn’t have a great track record of keeping up high performance single piston aircraft. They bought Columbia and shuttered the TTx line only 5 years later.

Ha I remember when he was the CFI for Flight Simulator 2000 and 2004 I believe. Grew up playing those a ton and was quite familiar with his voice.

I didn’t say workload has increased or decreased. I asked if their *inflation adjusted budget* has increased or decreased *relative to their workload*. I don’t know whether their workload has increased, decreased, or stayed the same, but hypothetically (totally making up numbers) if their...

How much have their budgets expanded relative to both inflation and workload? Just saying you’d expect budgets to go up over time in absolute dollars. Almost every number with a $ in front of it goes up over time.

How’s that been working out for them? Half the HIMS posts on this board *are* doctor shopping…

Not by us but presumably the OP would have such info in the exif data

With the focal length and known length of the airplane in question, one could pretty easily calculate how close the camera is to the plane. If the pilot is within 500’ of a person, still a violation of the regs.

Nuke it from orbit. Only way

Great looking pup!

Fourth recall for the cyber truck since introduction. Quality manufacturing and design right there…. https://apnews.com/article/tesla-cybertruck-recall-fourth-time-f3709f24063695bc231763fb07d7d700
