    ADSB out creating more risk until 2020

    I'm kinda shocked this question hasn't been asked - but if you see traffic at 10 o'clock, visually or on your ADSB-IN, Why did you allow him to get within 200' of you?

    United Airlines customer service

    So customer #2 buys a full price refundable ticket, and never shows, gets a refund. Had they not oversold, they lost the fare. If it wasn't profitable to overbook, they wouldn't do it. plane and simple.

    United Airlines customer service

    They get 2 fares for 1 seat if person #2 never shows, for any flight. Had they not oversold, they would have only received 1 fare and flown an empty seat.

    United Airlines customer service

    I think the point is that they can force you to leave, sure. However, if you have a contract you can then take that up civily. But for the the immediate issue, if the owner says leave, you leave. Then you sue.

    United Airlines customer service

    Then don't forget Subway needs to offer you 10 more free sandwiches too for the inconvenience. I'd happily take my ten and goto panera.

    150 people that we're glad to goto county lock up in the first place when they bought those tickets. Besides, Ebay.

    United Airlines customer service

    What i don't understand is why they didn't just up the offer.. $1000-$1500 is going to get some of the cattle off the plane.

    Wouldn't have mattered. He was randomly selected to depart. For all we know, he was the first to check in.

    Engine TBO (years, not hours) question

    Sell the plane - the loss i'd take selling it with a run-out is less than the cost of the OH.

    Engine TBO (years, not hours) question

    I'd say the engine what-if is a huge what-if... I can guarantee with 100% certainty that I will never overhaul my engine. It currently has ~600hours on it.. the plane will be sold long before I ever get anywhere near 2000... I'd guess more planes are sold prior to TBO, and in turn most high time...

    Engine TBO (years, not hours) question

    Was it so far off? "derivation obsessional neurosis". Opening separate bank accounts for different pots of money for what-if events of an airplane? Couldn't that be simply done on a spreadsheet? Do you open separate accounts for your electric? water? grocery? gas? cars? engine on your cars...

    Mechanisms to rent out a privately owned airplane

    I have a friend whom I trust greatly rents from me. I added him as a named insured on my policy (only went up $70/yr, and the following year it dropped $100), so basically cost nothing to add him. I give him a fair dry price and it helps me do extra's to the plane. So far nice new concorde...

    Keeping lines of credit open increases your rating. Utilization and age of lines go straight to your score.

    Engine TBO (years, not hours) question

    I'm flying on a 1992 OH with about 575 hours. Runs great, great compression, doesn't burn any oil.
