I get the willies when I look down at 5000 feet or higher, as in, I'll grab at the panel to hold on. Just don't look directly down. It doesn't help when you get to 12,000 feet or so and the plane - teetering between stall and dive - is handling like you're balancing a broom.

I could and did actually go to Allied on the bus as a kid to pick up stuff from Will Call. It was in a scary neighborhood for a north side kid.

Exactly. The term UFO means it was (apparently) flying and and is unidentified. Bright lights on the you see from the air can really be on the ground.

I had an engine run really, really rough when I pulled the throttle back and RPMS to stay under the Bravo. I went with Rod Machado's "undo whatever you did" and put the throttle back in. The engine eventually smoothed out. It was carb ice. I didn't figure it out until later. It...

The pax gets props for not being a blade runner?

Take a look at the Vornado heaters. They are pretty safe and work well. http://www.amazon.com/Vornado-VH2-Whole-Vortex-Heater/dp/B00006C7HJ

My Lincoln is currently telling me I'm 48 miles to empty. If my Mustang did that I wouldn't have run it dry any of 6 times.

Woot has the refurb for $349 again today. http://www.woot.com/offers/samsung-galaxy-tab-pro-12-tablet-case-2?ref=cnt_wp_4_1 I noticed that Amazon has the the refurb for $399. My geeky sense says that there has to be reason why there are so many refurbs to be had, but maybe they had a mass...

It's not on Woot now. I'll let you know when it comes back. On it now. What's a hoot is now my Nexus 5 looks like it belongs in a doll house.

It could work as a phone on Skype but no. I only got it this morning. So far the battery has lasted even with full brightness set. I played poker on it. I sent stuff from Plex to my Chromecast and TV. Once I fixed the buttons I became less inclined to hate it, but in general I'd rather...

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-tab/SM-T9000ZWAXAR Woot has had refurbs for $349 Just when I was lusting for a Nexus 9 (not enough to buy, but ordered one for the GF.) I had to de-Samsung it a bit and change the settings because the lights on the buttons kept turning off...

The idea "sorta" was Burt Rutan's. He envisioned like 8 people paying $5000 for a chance with 3 getting to fly - and pilot it - at the end of a week of training in Florida. It did occur to me that we should appreciate that we got to see Cirrus go from "Oh, yeah. One more Oshkosh dreamer...

Some naysayers are saying it's too big. Nah.

Mine is from Global Aerospace through a broker. The policy and price seems reasonable. There are only 4-5 companies in the business. AIG(!) is not USAIG.

I dunno why you have the rule. My dogs usually let me have 4 inches or so of my side of the bed.

TIGHAR verified that what TIGHAR says that TIGHAR found on an TIGHAR expedition matches the Electra. No, wait. TIGHAR says it matches the plane that TIGHAR says the repair for the Electra came from.... ...matches because planes are made of aluminum and TIGHAR says this is aluminum. Let not...

What will blow your mind is what limits the RPM is not a speed control. The RPM is the fastest rate that the engine can spin a prop that is taking that much of a bite into the air. What's limiting the RPM is the power limit of the engine. On my 235 a flat prop spins at about 2550 RPM always...
