Funny you mention NJ. Our local UPS store has garnered a reputation based on their practice of charging $30 for notarizations. The state-mandated maximum is $5. As noted, they are all franchisees. I'm lucky enough to have an actual UPS service center close enough when I truly need. Most thing...

So the boat kills and cooks the passengers for the orcas? Are we certain the orcas aren't behind this?

I thought that was the FAA's motto: "We're not happy until you're not happy."

Or a tacet acknowledgement that certification practices are a huge obstacle to progress in aviation far beyond their contribution to safety.

Wikipedia: Energy Density -- In energy storage and fuels Have at it. No one. What else you got? If you get away from storing energy, there's solar -- VVFR (VERY VFR) only. Maybe you have a line on that Nicola Tesla/Randian John Galt static harvester engine?

The current limiting (no pun intended) factor of electric aircraft is energy density. The laws of thermodynamics still apply. Present technology requires a certain amount of energy to move a sufficient amount of air as would levitate a given quantity of "stuff" (plane, passengers, cargo...

I saw the headline and wondered if he took off from his own land... nope. He departed from (and returned to) a municipal airport. That seems to contradict the spirit of a 'benign anarchy' that I perceive as motivating the 'sovereign citizen' ethos. Kind of like those "autonomous" protesters in...

OP WAS paying the shipping. Seller refused to eat the sales tax on said shipping.

Lots of regional variety to pronunciations. In the Sicilian dialect, most c's become g's -- including "Sicilian" itself. Then again, there's no 'T' in 'pizza', either.

I hope you can fly BasicMed and never have to deal with those M***********s again. In any case, congratulations.

You can already choose from among "sad", "angry" and "groan" to express your disapproval. Dyspeptically Yours, -DJT

Even with a commercial ticket, you may be subject to part 135 if "holding out" for private carriage, or part 121 for public carriage (typically, scheduled service). What was a pro-rata sharing of costs among friends under part 91 when the pilot only had a private ticket may become part 135...

I guess no thread is too positive to get shat upon. :rolleyes:

De gustibus, non est disputandam.

The only places I know for "good" poutine in Canada are in Montreal -- there was this greasy spoon near McGill Uni. You may not have to drive all the way to Montreal to get the dish, though. Probably less fees and logistics to drive as you intend than to fly into Canada, though that kind of IS...

Hotel pans. They come in different depths (2.5" below; also 4") and full (21" x 13", below), 1/2 (10.5" x 13"), or 1/4 size. Made in stainless or as semi-disposable in aluminum. Using them as catch pans, I'd be happy enough with the cheap dollar store kind.

Goodnight, Gracie! :lol:

Even discussing the topic got another thread locked. Samizdat, straight up.

You did nothing wrong. Unelected bureaucrats are doing it to him right now. F#@& them, well and truly.
