Him and Patey and a few others give me that "bro dude" vibe so I can't really watch them comfortably. I used to be a "bro dude" myself, so I'm probably just jealous that I moved on to being a boring old dude now and mostly want people off my lawn.

I found this: "...they all do have expiration dates—they're usually just listed on the massive box sent to fast-food joints, not on individual packets" "They sorted condiments by how long they can last for 'optimal flavor.' Eating condiments beyond this date may not make you sick, but it...

Originally when I saw this plane I was impressed and thought it looked nice and modern. When I noticed the 20,000 ft service ceiling my first thought was that maybe it's pressurized, which I thought would be cool. Now that I look over the specs I think I'm less impressed. I guess we're battling...

I utilize the PARE method when I find myself in a spin: **** my pants Accept my fate Rely on prayer Eat granola bar

The specs that Mtns2 linked shows a "Time Between Replacement (TBR)" of 1200 hours, projected 2000 hours. The plane looks nice, I'd totally order one, but since it won't fit in my hangar I guess I'll have to pass. Also, the ergonomics of the seats (rear seats in particular) don't make them seem...

Thanks for the input, much appreciated! Unfortunately we're having second thoughts now due to the virus. It looks like the New Braunfels mayor just issued an order requiring face-masks for both businesses and visitors, but haven't read over it yet so I'm not sure of the details.

My family has a trip planned to New Braunfels in a couple of weeks. I'm planning on stopping in Conroe (KCXO) and eating at the restaurant on the field and then continuing on to New Braunfels (KBAZ). This would make it two one-hour flights, so it should be an easy trip if the weather cooperates...

As someone with a 550 that's over TBO, your price-tag doesn't fill me with joy; hopefully I can get a few more years out of her. Charles Lindbergh was a LOP proponent: "...the P–38 was considered to have an operational range of just 400 miles, but Lindbergh taught the P–38 pilots how to stretch...

Man, glad they made it out unscathed; attaching a picture for posterity.

This would make my commute to work a lot more entertaining.

Welcome. What's that in your profile pic?

Having it on the yoke like your pic seems ideal. Someone on BeechTalk had posted a 3D model they created of a holder for the keyboard that mounts to the yoke. After making my original post, I ordered a 3D print of the yoke holder, I think that will make a big difference in usability. Not...

How often do you use the bluetooth keyboard? I haven't used mine at all, but I haven't given it a chance either.

550 here as well, I usually end up anywhere between 25 to 40 when flying LOP but I don't think it matters much as long as the engine as smooth and you aren't making too much power. Here's a graphic, but I don't recall where I snagged it from. It does seem to roughly coincide with most of what...

Nice video, good job in highlighting the downsides of the sectional. I mostly use iFly, but I utilize the vector map feature 99% of the time.

The wing loading on the M20C and M20E are both listed as 15.4 lb/sq.ft while the wing loading on the Grumman is listed as 15.9 (for comparison a Cessna 310 has a wing loading of 30.7). Not sure how accurate those numbers are, but that's what my search turned up, I'm sure someone else here can...

"...when you ask what makes us the greatest country in the world, I don't know what the **** you're talking about?! Yosemite?!!! We sure used to be. We stood up for what was right! We fought for moral reasons, we passed and struck down laws for moral reasons. We waged wars on poverty, not poor...

Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means 'a whale's vagina'.

I have a rooted tablet and rooted phone that I use with iFly,I can't recall having any issue because of it. Really the main reason I rooted historically was to be able to block advertising at the cellular data level with things like AdAway. However, I'm using a VPN now that's tied to a PiHole...
