    the "not worthy of it's own thread" thread

    the "not worthy of it's own thread" thread

    Anyone flown to Ohio State University airport on game day? I wonder if there’ll be any place to tie down. I’ll eventually call them to ask but expect an unreliable answer. Anyone have a reliable search method for this site? I’m certain I’ve seen a thread on flying over the Rockies without a...

    AOPA VREF

    Last year’s AP thought the exhaust was fine. This year it needs to be replaced…so that’s a 2k annual with a 10k? repair/replacement. I’m sure there’s a million examples.

    AOPA VREF

    The population has doubled since the big ga push 50 years ago. Doubled! It’s certainly possible that no one with money hungers for a 60 year old plane next year or five years from now but I think the odds are better than commonly asserted here

    Leesburg isn’t far (30 miles ) from the FAA in DC or do you mean the only part that matters is tech center?

    This awesome airplane is not right for you if you need to see the logbooks

    The seller could put the faa files on a site (or the sellers log and pictures dvd) so the wait is much shorter. I guess some sellers might doctor the info

    Shout-Out to BrightLine Flight Bags

    77 pounds but I’m guessing she will start shrinking soon. Thanks for the suggestions, I hadn’t thought to put my daughter and a bed on the first floor. Just need to empty a room.

    Changes Since Your Initial Training (Get Off My Lawn edition)

    I flew not even halfway across the country with my dad in 1976 and we somehow managed to land at every airport with FSS in person. As an impatient teen I was mystified how he always picked the place where we’d stand around for hours waiting for some new tidbit of info to argue with fss about...

    Shout-Out to BrightLine Flight Bags

    Our dog hit 14 and can barely manage the stairs. What do people do, sleep on the couch for a year or two? I can carry her up and down but she hates it. I guess I’m turning this into the all dog comment thread. Sorry, the issue hit me tonight.

    Solution: More cameras

    I live near a windy, historic road, that used to be a horse trail between a river and creek. It has 90 degree plus turns yet I’ve seen people do a u turn right after a blind turn! The guy honked at me like I did something wrong. I guess I did because I didn’t tbone him If only I had a dash cam...

    United 777 PLUNGES 28,000 feet in 10 minutes!!!

    Redbird simulator 172 does + or -2,000 fpm in just a few seconds…completely realistic! Too bad it doesn’t go 16x between waypoints, like x plane, (also completely realistic)

    Light aircraft cabin noise levels

    Inventory of 100,000 parts is expensive to carry in thousands of stores I worked in one in 1979 and computer was hot hot hot. I guess they picked the wrong one to sell
