    Richard McSpadden Crash

    All other things being equal, that would be my vote too. If you decided to bail out of a turn back attempt I’d rather be turned toward the wind as much as possible to reduce ground speed.

    Redundant "traffic" and other annoyances . . .

    Visual would be more appropriate than Tally. At least per the last time I’d looked at the brevity book a while back (6+ years ago).

    SWA Wants Tower’s Number

    Kelsey from 74 Gear on YouTube recently did a video about a situation in San Diego where it seems like the controller lost the SA bubble. They cleared a Citation to land, then cleared a SWA plane to lineup and wait followed by passing clearance changes to #4 in sequence. Citation had to go...

    Two things immediately jumped to mind. 1st, I’m really disappointed we didn’t get a better description like this other famous Bri(y)an did (jump to the 45 second point): 2nd, I know it’s a different sound, but the blue note some jets make is similar:

    Airspace Question - Warner Robbins AFB Area

    I haven’t been to the museum in the last year or two but have gone a handful of times. I thought it was really well done and while the collection isn’t as big as the Dayton Museum, it is worth seeing. They have 4 large hangars with planes of different eras in each and a large outdoor collection...

    Airspace Question - Warner Robbins AFB Area

    :yeahthat: Atlanta approach handles traffic in and out of Robins and Macon. Half Fast, are you planning a day trip or overnight? If just a day trip the Macon airport is more convenient to the AF Museum. It’s a straight shot down the highway past the base to the museum. Perry is about a 30...

    The HUD projector and mount were a give away, other than that it would have been more of a coin flip.

    Prop engraving -> cracking (fleetwide, C-130)

    If there were a fleet worth of NP2000s on the shelf ready to install it would be.

    Missing person - Death Valley

    That Facebook post is dated more than two weeks ago. Are they still searching? Seems like a tough place to survive over two weeks. Hopeful for a good outcome though.

    Make DST permanent!

    Let’s just split the difference between ST and DST. Afghanistan has a local time of Z + 4:30 and that place seems to be working out well. Let’s try it here.

    Lets make Friday 'Joke Day'!

    They forgot the part about grabbing your bags out of the overhead bin first.
