After having visited the Tower of London this past week I would definitely recommend it. Make sure you do the tour led by one of the Beefeaters. Tour is only 45 minutes long and gives you a basic history and will get you pointed in the right direction for seeing what you want to see inside the...

Just tighten it. No one will care.

This pretty much sums up what I’ve heard. IF you get the base you want your home every night is the only positive. Negatives are : The bad side is you have to take a lot of abuse, their own interpretations of the law, their disrespect to laws that they don't like etc. Now, i'm away more...

You do NOT want to fly for Ryanair.

Best thing we did in Paris a few years ago was the Fat Tire Bike Tour. We did the night time ride which in June is going to be half daytime. Was my teenage kids favorite thing we did there.

From my flight instructor days that was the nicest flying airplane I flew.

I remember that. As I recall BL told him to take if off but he refused. Nothing came of it. (It’s been a long time and I could be wrong about that)

Family travelled BWI -BNA yesterday. Was really expecting them to get stuck. Got lucky. Flight delayed 3:30 but they got home.

He was always one of my favorites. From talking about flying a Guard P51 to Dallas for his Braniff interview to the 747 and everything in between I found him very interesting. The good ole days

Lost my buddy last month. Unfortunately getting a dog means setting yourself up for heartbreak at some point.

Why? Do you have to retake the driver test if you’re in an accident? The answer is no. If there is negligence involved then quite possibly a 709 ride is coming but for an accident the answer is no. Now, referring to the Mooney in the power lines. Negligence MAY be involved. I wasn’t there...

220/17500. Comes to 1.25%

You got me to wondering so I checked the items I have. Made either in Vietnam or Indonesia. Oh well, at least it’s not China

My Carhartt barn jacket is great. Have a couple pairs of the Duluth firehose pants which I really like. Can’t go wrong with either. (Plus, I believe Duluth makes most of their stuff in the US and Carhartt makes some of theirs here)

The FedEx drivers are all subcontractors that FedEx hires in different areas. Probably lots of difference between the service they provide depending on how good the subcontractor is. UPS drivers all work for UPS. UPS likes to have more control so they keep things in house.

I like the change. Leave it as is.

I know there’s always different options that can be selected that affect weight, altitude, etc. Guess this is one of them.

Well, maybe your fleet is different but straight from our systems manual. “Two dual pump units provide a high capacity jettison rate of approximately 2600 pounds per minute.” Maybe Boeing had different options available.

Think you might be missing a couple digits. Dump rate on the 767 is 2600#/MINUTE. Not 1000#/HOUR.

With 2000’ of vertical separation I don’t worry about it. At 1000’ I’m expecting it. This is in the work jet. Fun flying, if I was within 1000’ I’d change course. Probably at 2000’ too.
