Watching the storm brewing, I understand your pessimism…

Whatever you do, avoid calling Leidos as best you can. In my experience they’re the clueless middleman at best.

FIFY too…

I’m a firm believer in Airstops and have had a few problems with AeroClassics, including a brand new one with a hole in it(replaced by Spruce, reluctantly). I talked with Desser at OSH and they suggested keeping their AeroClassics filled around 30-35psi, which is above book for my Warrior but...

I’m surprised this type of failure mode isn’t (repeatedly) practiced in the sim.

I think Sac Arrow is a bot. Don’t feed the bots. :p

Reminds me of this thread, which was informative - and reassuring! https://www.pilotsofamerica.com/community/threads/how-long-can-you-fly-without-oil.125633/

Not exactly sure what to say to this guy…(for those not familiar, an “Article 15” is a punishment for things not bad enough to warrant a jury trial) (Just saw this guy literally half an hour ago)

I should qualify my previous answers a bit. Here in Austin, the airport gives free parking for certain vets (based on certain medals plus for disabled, which I’m not). and a license plate is needed. That has saved me well north of $1,000 so far, so I have the plates.

:yeahthat: Exactly the same for me

Please do not misread any negative in my response - not intended. Objectively, if one is wearing a WWII, Korean War, Vietnam War, Air Force/Army/Navy/Marine or whatever cap, they’re pretty clearly communicating they want to be recognized for that service. Even if one was drafted, if they’re...

From pix of posts above: “If they implemented something like you mentioned, I'd bet 90% of our safety issues would go away overnight” Which one at AUS a while ago was squawking 1200: the SWA departing or the FedEx about to land on them?

Maybe something like this? https://a.co/d/eIQob4U

I wonder if we should hope they don’t read forums like this and get some idea of how much pilots who haven’t met them apparently despise them; their quite normal human reaction would probably not be to our benefit. Hopefully they’re bigger/better than that…;)

Sincerely appreciate the question. I did, including a limited discussion re the flying stuff. Ultimately I completely owned the decision. Given my low risk, I figured the most likely risk was to get started on a statin. Yeah- I lucked out. I’m not an expert re these tests. I do wonder if...

Thanks for your response and concern. He's actually a peer (we're both Family Practitioners) and I'm 100% sure both that he got no kickback from the test and he does a superlative job trying to follow the best science - which is why I remain his patient. This is an ever-evolving area of...

Ask Florida about that idea Thursday morning...

While I agree, things are a bit muddied by the American College of Cardiology. While they don't "strongly advocate" for a CAC, they do suggest the study is "reasonable...to guide clinician-patient risk discussion"...

Add: don't forget this quote from that article: "While the sick and elderly residents of Bat Cave were airlifted to safety a week ago, those left behind have seen virtually no sign of government agencies, save for a handful of Louisiana state troopers “keeping an eye on everything,” who locals...

We actually agree on a lot of this. The trick is where to draw the line: is having a fire department part of the “nanny state”? In years past they were private and in competition with each other (there’s a scene near the end of Gangs of New York that opened my eyes to that), so, theoretically...
