    Great instructional video on how to let airline pilots know you too are a pilot

    Nothing screams "I'm a pilot!" more than epaulets. Lots and lots of epaulets. Like Paul is showing us at 3:37 here (they get longer throughout the vid LOL):

    Retired Airline Service Items

    Here's an article on an annual airline collectibles show. Looks like it's held every year in Atlanta. Bet there's some cool stuff there worth a trip to Atlanta to check out...

    POA Movie thread

    I saw John Wick 3 this past weekend, and while it was good, I thought the first two were a little better and had better stories. Still worth seeing on the big screen, though.

    The GOT thread (spoilers inside)

    Yeah, I was disappointed to say the least. For the first six seasons, when I lived in San Jose, you couldn't tear me away from my Sunday night ritual of grabbing a pizza from my favorite pizza place, opening up a nice bottle of wine, and watching GoT. I silenced my phone, and never missed an...

    GA pilot decline

    Another good example - that episode from South Park where the kids were all playing Guitar Hero and made fun of Randy for playing the real guitar. Friend of mine at the time that episode came out said his kids were exactly the same way.

    Tim Conway Gone West

    RIP Tim - I used to watch the Carol Burnett show as a kid, never missed it. I love it when all three of his costars are on the couch with their heads down at 0:55, trying not to lose it:

    The way the fight between Vader and Kenobi really went...

    Wow - thanks for posting this! I hadn't seen this yet. This was really well done, a lot of time and love for Star Wars went into this.

    Budding Paws Pilot Superhero

    I wonder if he talks in that gravelly Batman voice on the radio?

    [N/A] Chernobyl - HBO Miniseries

    Just watched the first episode tonight. Very well done, and yes, very horrifying also. Definitely going to watch this series.

    Exercise— What’s your routine?

    30 minutes (which equates to about 4 miles) every weekday night on my rowing machine, alternating between low and high intensities every other minute. Over the past few months, I've tried to really stick to it every night, and eating better, and I do feel better, and have lost about 8 pounds...

    Question about VMC Roll

    Saw a video once on a DA42 (can't recall if it was a NG, VI, or whatever) where they were demonstrating engine out on takeoff, and it looked pretty docile, and IIRC they continued climbing. Any DA42 pilots here who can speak to an engine out on takeoff scenario?

    Quick Aerostar Question

    I love Aerostars, too. If I was ever fortunate enough to be in the market for a piston twin, they'd be at the top of my list, although to be honest, might get bumped in favor of a plane with more presence in the marketplace, if only for parts and service availability, especially a larger body...

    Long cross country

    I just now saw this thread, and have a question... Do you need a prescription to get an oxygen tank filled, especially at a welding supply place? I didn't realize O2 might require a prescription.

    New BBQ sliders from.....White Castle???

    I grew up in Alabama, where we had the Southern version of a White Castle, called Krystal. I've only had White Castle a couple times, and it was okay (as far as cheap little burgers go), but I LOVE me some Krystals. Every time I go back to the South to visit family, I have to stop at a Krystal...

    Now What - Cross Post from the Red board, long

    I've learned a couple times previously in my life that it doesn't end well when I try turning a passion or hobby into a job, or even a volunteer project for other people. I used to be big into outdoor photography years ago (nothing even remotely approaching professional quality, just an eager...

    Ted the celebrity

    Wow, that is cool! So glad to see a dog reunited with its family. I was wondering where in Colorado they found her, and then noticed it was Hugo. I was flying out to Limon a few times during my solos over the past few weeks, and happened to fly over Hugo coming back one day. There isn't much...

    The GOT thread (spoilers inside)

    There's so much that could happen, I hesitate to even speculate too much. But, I do hope that Tyrion ends up sitting on the Iron Throne. This would mean every other major contender (Jon, Dany, and Cersei) are all eliminated in some way. I seriously doubt they'll end the show with him on the...

    Ok Ok Ok....
