I've had success with one entity by simply calling the general counsel's office and asking for the name and address of their agent to receive service of process in my state. Simply taking the photo does not entitle the photographer or whomever they may have sold their rights in the image to...

I'd bet if you sent them a cease & desist letter with demand for royalties, they would quickly scrub that image from their database as not worth the trouble to fight over.

I had the exact same thoughts. I started a new thread to discuss it. https://www.pilotsofamerica.com/community/threads/this-is-why-we-dont-have-flying-cars-yet-vol-147.149354/post-3573510

This is a tangent from @Jim K 's thread about his most recent maintenance woes. First, Jim, thank you, bless you, and may you find the departure end of the runway soon. But reading his experience -- which I recommended that he document at book-length under the title I've given this thread --...

How about "This is Why We Don't Have Flying Cars Yet"?

SaaS is a scourge to consumers. I love stories about some attorney still doing wills on his Apple IIe using Apple Writer II.

Jim, you need to write a book about this experience.

"Don't go away mad, fellas... Just go away."

Imagine for just a moment that these machinations were required of any portion of the 232 million licensed drivers in this country and time they had an ER visit that ended with them being cleared by a physician to walk out the door under their own power?

If only you hear the dog whistle, it means that you're the dog.

Что за страна! Chto za strana!

Isn't the resin the same for ordinary glass fiber?

I met a guy once wearing a baseball cap embroidered with "Honda Pilot". I probably could have guessed the answer, but I had to ask him which sense of the term was intended.

So pay me $500 and I'll swear in a writing that is totally devoid of consequence to anyone that a particular piece of property is worth whatever number you gave me... to someone... somewhere. Seems like a lucrative business.

The drug was developed to treat diabeates; weight loss was a side effect (similar story for Sildenafil -- developed to treat pulmonary hypertension, when the side-effect... errr, sprung up). I'll defer to Dr. C here, but my understanding is that if you take the drug, the FAA presumes you have...

Wake vortices sink and drift downwind. I recall being taught that, under most loading conditions, our aircraft types will lift off sooner and climb at a steeper gradient (ft/NM, not ft/min) than almost anything that could make a wake strong enough to concern us. As a matter of extra caution...

Don't most real estate appraisers ask what price you want to hit before taking the job?

Far more than that. If he made a log entry attesting to the FAA that he replaced bearings in 2022, which bearings all coincidentally are all dated 03 and 05, which coincides with the time of a prior overhaul/bearing replacement, I think that shop owner would find it in his enlightened...

In light of this, any plans to revisit your discussion with the prior shop over whether they do or do not bear any liability for this failure?
