How massive is this salt grain? Will there need to be a new W&B sheet drafted for it? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

70 hours in "real" planes, couple hundred with RC models, and a couple thousand in simulation. The most stressful thing for me still is also turbulence: I'm a bit of a control freak, and having the plane constantly rolling and yawing in ways I didn't tell it to gets irritating fast. I am...

Ditto flight following. I can't imagine taking a long XC without it. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

The problem with that is trusting them not to keep the records. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

As a few others have mentioned, it's gonna depend on the aircraft controls more than anything. The Tecnam I trained in is super easy to trim, for two reasons: First, the trimmer is on top of the stick in a position that makes it a natural motion. Second, the stick is extremely responsive...

An interesting choice of phrasing, considering what the lunatic in office has been doing to circumvent the will of the people.

Two bad assumptions to make with VPNs: They really aren't logging They aren't running a man-in-the-middle scheme Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

I did: I did a full stop and taxi back to the threshold, then waited for him to do his next touch and go before taking off again. He was spanking that thing around the pattern, I was doing 100kts on crosswind and downwind, and he was still catching me. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

In the pattern with my M20C a few weeks ago, I had a Skyhawk try to run me over. He kept creeping up on me, until he was practically in formation with me by my third or fourth crosswind turn... I actually had to call him up and ask him to back off. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Just want to play devil's advocate here and point out that my 1964 jalopy I'd turning out to be an excellent first plane. But yeah, new planes are absurdly expensive. I'd sooner buy a new car, and I will never, ever, buy a new car... Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

My objection is primarily in the increasingly wide-spread usage of convenient labels to dismiss as irrelevant any viewpoint you don't want to hear. I find it increasingly difficult to take seriously anyone who uses "Conservative" or "Liberal" as a swear word. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

"aaand attention to any traffic in the pattern, bug smasher 12345 is with you on 123.00, please advise if the FBO restaurant is serving pork or fish today, I've just come in from far away, and I'm starving." Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Pilot only has one radio Second radio is inoperable Pilot has been monitoring other frequencies, and doesn't have a third radio Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Which is Verizon's dog in this fight: people are cutting the landline cord and relying on cellular or VOIP services, and Verizon wants a cut off all the phone business they are no longer receiving. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

There might be, but I haven't found it yet. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Right. Bad regulations are fixed with good, well-researched regulations. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

You didn't see the logical argument, because he didn't present one, which was my point. The personal attack was "well, I don't see you doing it, therefore your assertion that it should be done is wrong". Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Ah yes, when logic fails, break out the personal attacks. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
