Nobody should be bad mouthing our amazing units of measure. Here is a history lesson for the unpatriotic commie heathens that are.

I have had a 56V Ego with a 21 inch cut width for 7 years. It has worked real well and I’d get one again. A 20 minute cut is well within what I’ve gotten out a battery. Edit to add: I also have one of their leaf blowers and a power tool head that powers the string trimmer, edger and a hedge...

6PC, this is probably the closest thing to what you’re asking about that actually exists and flies:

Can this weightless plane takeoff from a treadmill moving in the opposite direction?

Scott Manley is a YouTuber that covers space news. He witnessed and was the first person to the scene:

It may be just because there isn’t a storm that is formed enough to give a cone for. They had a cone for Beryl, unless I’m on a different page of what the cone was: https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/archive/2024/BERYL_graphics.php?product=5day_cone_with_line

I was bored and looked on Google Earth. Winter Park:

Try listening in on LiveATC and follow along with one of the flight trackers like ADSB Exchange or Flight Aware to get an idea of what the comms and flow of traffic are like. https://www.liveatc.net/search/?icao=kpvd

That was interesting. He’s like a maritime Juan Brown.

Pressurized or not, my bowels would probably have decompressed a little. Severity of the issue would be proportional to the ratio of solids to gaseous matter of said decompression.

I had a buddy that went through good natured lieutenant hazing. Got sent down to maintenance to pick up the keys to a jet, can’t remember if they told him to request a Form ID-10T to get them or not. Other good ones: make them go get a bucket of prop wash or 40 feet of flight line.

Seems like one of those better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it type things.

It may be legit: https://airshows.aero/Page/AirBossReport?Index=D

Yeah, waiting for them could be frustrating. Even more fun could result when they’d go lost link and RTB themselves direct through whatever ROZ happened to be between them and home. I never had the pleasure, but squadron mates had stories them fly though their orbit unannounced at co-altitude...

My understanding is there are takeoff and landing qualified pilots at the field with line of site that take care of departures and arrivals. Sometime after departure they hand off control to the crews at Creech, or wherever else the ops are controlled out of. I believe there was enough latency...

Does anyone know if the flight controls on the 604 are hydraulically boosted? If so does it have a RAT to provide pressure in an event like this?

One of my coworker’s favorite sayings this time of year:

I don’t typically watch Dan Gryder’s videos but the one I watched yesterday he went to the site. After seeing the scene I don’t think a lack of shoulder harnesses would have made a difference, if they indeed didn’t have them. It looks like they were 15-20 feet below where the slope leveled...

I think it should be Indegumbus Day since Columbus wasn’t here first.
