    The Big Bang Theory

    I don't watch the show regularly, but Bob Newhart was a guest for a while - very entertaining storyline and Newhart himself is hilarious.

    Tesla Model 3 - Now I get the hype.

    He didn't say anything about being at the airport for 40 days. I could probably charter a flight from my home drome to the "big" airport for less than 40 days of parking there, never mind Uber...

    Insights from a multiple SR22 operation

    Not much to say here other than to comment about insurance costs;we (three PPL-IR 400, 500, 1500hr each) have found the insurance to be very reasonable for our early SR22, despite not being pro pilots. I would imagine that the above comment is important when comparing this op to a Pt. 135...

    NA — Mazda

    2009 3 hatchback. 160k miles and it’s never seen a flatbed, consistent with other 3’s of the same generation. I know a few people with newer 3’s and cx5s and all are happy. The cx5 is kinda boring compared to the Tiguan we ultimately went with, but, it’s German. Never again.

    Alton bay ice runway

    Hey Dave, I forget the exact phrasing from the airport manager, but there was some record of note (it may have been the string of open days later in the season). How long would it take you to get up here? If the place is open and there's continuing good weather (overnight temps below freezing...

    Alton bay ice runway

    Got really nice conditions late season this year - I think that it was a record year for days open. Always fun.

    I'm glad the FAA Color vision test isn't as hard as this one.

    I have trouble with the plates, particularly in bad lighting or with (I think) faded plates but I got 9/10. Not bad for a guy who was told "no military flying for you" a long time ago... The sorting test has never been an issue but I wasn't aware of that option at the time...

    Cirrus down near BIS - Pulled chute, everyone ok

    Cirrus down near BIS - Pulled chute, everyone ok

    Avidyne EMS started with SN #435 (or so). This is an early G2. No analogue gauges.

    NA There is stupid, then there is Massachusetts stupid.

    I'm pretty well a MA lifer, but the driving is no longer for me. Fortunately there's a solution.

    It appears Cirrus is already updating the Vision Jet

    Seems to me that there were other changes (lightweighting, pressurization improvements, auto-deploying o2 masks for pax) that would prevent the G1 from being upgraded for the increase in performance (weight, altitude)...
