Coast Guard search suspended. Father and 18 year old son missing. What a horrible way to start the holidays. RIP. https://www.foxnews.com/us/search-suspended-for-new-jersey-father-son-after-small-plane-crashes-on-trip-back-from-disney...

What's even better is that there is a "Global Strategic Maple Syrup Reserve" in Laurierville, Quebec. Maple syrup is a big deal in Canada. Looks like $33 a gallon!

ADSB Exchange seems to show the most aircraft, including military. Not sure if it shows AF1. Or you can make your own ADSB receiver for cheap and pick up everything close to you. This link shows a test of dongles for an ADSB receiver. This one did very well in the test.

I had the same problem with my Win 7 machine a while back. I don't remember exactly what it says during the update but there should be something that you have to check to agree to the terms during the install. Don't check it and it should revert back to whatever you had before. This worked for...

What could possibly go wrong? https://theaviationist.com/2017/07/27/the-deadliest-air-show-accident-in-history-the-ukrainian-air-force-su-27-flanker-crash-at-sknyliv-15-years-ago-today/ According to the above article 77 people died and 545 were injured.

Some think a Bear Market is coming soon.

I use https://maps.avnwx.com/ before almost every flight. It allows you to see the wind at your airport, and anywhere else around, as well as winds aloft and Airmets for turbulence. Type in your airport ID and distance that you want weather and click "Update Map". Then go to "Weather" in the...

According to Wikipedia, as of 2018 there were 757,626 minor planets, 8 planets and 5 dwarf planets in our solar system. Apparently dwarf planets are also minor planets.

Age Of Majority Definition - "The age of majority is the age at which you are considered an adult and responsible for your actions in the legal sense. Up until the age of majority, you are considered a minor—a child." Some astronomers categorize them as "Planets" or "Minor Planets" based solely...

Your "Fun fact" means nothing without a link to the study. What date is used to determine when lead was removed from gasoline, 1976 or 1996? How did they determine the correlation? The truth is that the average IQ of the US population has been going up since long before anyone was worried about...

Meyers 200D http://www.meyersaircraft.org/meyers-200/ "The Meyers 200D has never had an in-flight structural failure and has no FAA mandated Airworthiness Directives (AD) against the airframe." Anything else is just poor engineering.

There is indeed a Big Sky. I know because they made a license plate about it.

You are right. Only you know how you feel. I am also 6' tall and a couple years ago got my weight back down to 163 lbs. I felt better than I had felt in probably 15 years and yet people told me that I didn't look good and wanted to know what was wrong. Fat people don't like to be around skinny...

Who told you that 6' and 150# is too thin? You go down to 140# and you can't fly or drive? Unless you have some other medical problem those weights are not an issue. 30-40 years ago those weights were the norm for someone as tall as you. I think it's all the fat people who have convinced you...

Get a Jeep.

The Mad Max plane! I counted at least 7 people including children in the plane. I think there were more.

Wow, some brutal crashes on YouTube. A Google image search of "Isle of Mann TT" returns crazy pictures of airborne super bikes that I have to assume are going very fast. Some of these airborne bikes are in corners. From Wikipedia "Between 1907 and 2017 there have been 146 fatalities during...

+1 for uBlock Origin. Light weight and blocks TONS of garbage. Occasionally you may need to pause it to access items on sites that you want but well worth it for everything that it blocks. It even works good on YouTube. And its free.

Not surprising. That's the main reason I don't frequent the Van's Air Force Forum anymore, over moderation and a Pollyanna attitude.

Watch the airspeed. Amazing pilots if you ask me. They were flying a 737 at 80kts and performing steep turns! Some Cessna drivers can't even do that!
