That’s unfortunate. Hate to see a square-tail 172 balled up.

Airtag not a bad idea, but it’s worth carrying on IMO.

Yeah i went from feeling terrible after 8.5 hours of sleep to feeling amazingly good after 6.5 hours with the cpap. I love it.

That yoke pushed so far is pretty scary. He is fortunate to be alive. Pinned in a plane leaking fuel with a still-running engine does not sound like a good time. As much of a blowhard as he seems to be i am pleased he is not in worse shape. Hopefully the others recover fully.

It is the internet. Always someone willing to show up and argue

Sure - but I was thinking in terms of engine trouble over a bunch of farmland. The map shows a lot of fairly open fields.

That’s unfortunate. I’m not sure im getting a complete understanding of the options available and the situation, but from what i can see i would have thought that was a survivable situation for all aboard. RIP.

Exercise? Running groups tend to have a good mix of men and women.

Glad you are here to tell us. Sounds terrifying.

Disagree! Holy ****! A person who says no to great food says no to life!

Can you explain E? I would think this is not a huge effect in terms of rotational inertia but aerodynamics of the longer nose in a spin seem less intuitive.

I looked it up. Stronger like 100k yield but elongation (a measure of ductility) is lower. I don’t think that’s a good tradeoff for an aircraft structure. Maybe that’s helpful for a racecar. I could see that. Not sure about welding processes.

Huh that’s new to me. What problem is it solving?

I have thought about building but im not a builder (yet). As an engineer who gets paid to worry about quality issues among other things, i probably wouldn’t buy aircraft tubing without an MTR - material test report. Basically the birth certificate for the steel.

Wicks is in Highland IL - 5 hrs from nashville

Winner here - new best practice

Husband or not, if an instructor is not working for you then make a change.

Eat well and sleep well the night before. Especially if that is your normal routine. Dr Bruce can take care of you as good or better than any alternative.

I would pay 10 bucks just to prevent having a number that’s harder to say. Or possibly duplicate my grandfather’s racing boat number or something. It’s not about impressing people i don’t know. Not that i own a plane anyway.

I can pretty much second everything @Jim_R said.
