They use fuel instead of compressed air.

Anything that flies is cool in my book. Right now the indoor stuff is a big part of my life lol. I just upgraded my Nano S2 heli to a three-blade system. I love helicopters. I have some dual time in the big ones. I would have my heli PPL but you can't rent them like you do airplanes, and there's...

I'm also going to guess whomever flew the airplane last landed with almost dry tanks. If it was the same guy, this guy is really bad with fuel, barring any leaks of course.

Yep. Ah yes, that's the fuel quantity checker I remember. That sight tube was glass. Lucky me, my checkout flight in it the glass was broken and we couldn't use it. Had to wait 45 minutes for the fuel truck to show up.

DA-40? Unless it's topped off or you have a fancy fuel checker you cannot see the fuel level. Dip sticking doesn't work because of the shape of the tank. Also, I could be wrong, I have around 10 hours in the DA40 and it was a few years ago. I seem to remember it being a PITA, especially when the...

No wing strut to stand on. Maybe someone 'borrowed' his foot stool. Not even gonna comment on gas gauges in old airplanes.

Keep in mind that a witness said it stalled. That usually means they heard the engine quit, or wide RPM reduction.

Pretty neat. No idea where the supplies are coming from. Awesome way to build time though! https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/491575-16-year-old-pilot-flies-coronavirus-supples-to-hospitals-in

This is awesome. Where can I get a Cirrus?

Sounds expensive.

I had an unsolicited salesperson call me today. He tried to sell me on a very expensive solution to a practically nonexistent issue. Me: "You really think now is the time to be selling this?" Him: "Yeah, you're right I'll call you back next week." Me: "Next week? What is going to change in...

I read the comments here and on youtube before watching the video and I was expecting a lot worse!

It's only two weeks. Sort it out then. OP: CLEAR PROP! :)

Two weeks would be great. Some were forecasting months!

Did your CFI mix you up with someone working on their PPL? Unless IACRA states otherwise, solo time is solo time. If your rating is above PPL, they already know your PPL solo time anyway.

Sickening. Hope they all get shut down.

I've spent the past week setting people up to work from home. Most of them don't know if they have a Windows or Mac computer. The virus seems easier to deal with.

The stores around me that don't have the 'popular items' on shelves have them in storage and behind the counter. They're protecting their supply from crazy people. You have to ask, it's worth a shot.

It would be a crazy world if we knew the number of cases in real-time. We'd all be IoT devices, or whatever that would have been in 100 years. So close... almost made it. *cough cough*
