    Worth it?

    They all are.

    Do they teach correct patterns any more?

    1. Always defer to the other pilot, even if he's in the wrong. 2. In this case it sounds like everyone was calling in while they were still pretty far out. It's not a case of the first one to call it in gets right-of-way. The OP says he continued to make calls on his way in. Makes me...

    Oshkosh 2020: What Hotel?

    I was thinking the same thing. All these years and I've never been. 2020 is the year. And I don't mind driving 50 miles to a hotel.

    Who would you call?

    Back in college we hit the bars quite a bit. My roommate was in the car in front of me heading home when he was pulled over and given a field test, which he took no time in failing. As they're cuffing him one of the officers gives us his card and writes down the amount of money that we'll need...

    Who would you call?

    I'm sorry to say there's no one here I could call. I can't think of anyone who wouldn't start a new thread here laughing at me and taking bets on how long I'd have to sit in the pokey.

    Live feed from OSh....

    These controllers have a fantastic sense of humor, and incredibly professional and pleasant demeanor. Top notch.

    This is addictive. I like the way the camera keeps coming back to the Corsair. ATC is getting busy now.

    Our amazing Founding Fathers

    Man, now I feel bad. Didn't see the need to start a new thread, but man, the show is good.

    Our amazing Founding Fathers

    I've read the book a couple of times. Watched the show when it came out, sitting on the edge of my chair. Watching it again for the first time in ten years and would rank the show as one of the best ever made.

    I check this feed out several times a day. I can't be there, but man, it's fun to watch it live. The guy who came up with this idea deserves some major kudos.

    LongEZ question

    I guess it depends on your definition of "perfectly functioning". He knew there was a problem with him reaching the fuel selector which is why he and the mechanic put vice grips on it....so he could move the switch. Not something I'd do, but then again I've done other things more stupid than...

    LongEZ question

    I have to disagree based on what I've read and from watching the episode the other day. Other pilots who knew him spoke highly of his skills. He checked the fuel levels before departing and took that into account, and mentioned that he should have plenty since he'd planned on only flying for...

    LongEZ question

    I watched the show on Reelz last night about John Denver's plane. Crazy to think someone would move the fuel switch to that location.

    When Did (Car) Brake Jobs Become So Expensive?

    I've always done my own brakes and do them for many friends. I am very much in support of businesses charging enough to pay employees and keep the lights on and I go out of the way to help local stores. But things like $400-$600 brake jobs are absurd, especially when you're talking about less...

    What hill will you die on?

    I’m with Sac. Our justice system is wack and for a hundred reasons. Eminent domain out of control. 4th out the window. What’s up with the Patriot Act? Private businesses allowed to run roughshod over everyone because they line the pockets of...nevermind.
