People laugh when they see it hanging on my hangar wall, but 1-1/2" is also the axle nut on many GA planes.

Bellevue, WA (now a business park) Issaquah, WA (now a shopping center) Spanaway, WA (an automobile wrecking yard) Two airports in Tacoma, WA. One near 19th and Mildred, another off 56th and South Tacoma way. I believe Charles Lindbergh landed at the latter one. Blink a few times and another...

To the OP: Since you're using Foreflight, if you desire to read/hear the words "cleared as filled" then learn to use the Suggested Routes feature. Pick one that matches the type of aircraft you fly (eg turboprop, piston etc) and file. Goes straight through, like corn through a cow.

Yep. I booked a car for a one way out of Fresno just over a year ago. As I boarded the plane out of SeaTac I got a call from them. "Sorry, we have stopped doing one way rentals until further notice". I had rented from them for years. No more

**** Amazon with a rusty chainsaw. Until very recently I was a prime member and ordered lots of stuff from them. A week ago I received a notice of suspicious charges from my bank. I compared my purchases over the past 90 days to my credit card statement and sure enough there were several...

In my urban home environment I carry a Swiss army knife nearly identical to the red handled one shown earlier in the thread, except it has a cork screw instead of a #2 Phillips (I wish it had both). I use it at least twice every day. I travel to Alaska for my flying job. I make a point to...

Why pay managers, CFOs, CEOs a huge salary and golden parachute when they could just be replaced by AI? No need for cube farms, call centers, tech support. No need to build those places or provide infrastructure. At the end of a game of Monopoly, one person has all the resources and the...

Rolled this Yak 18 out of the hangar yesterday. It's going to be dismantled and shipped to a museum in China.

I agree, that doesn't sound like a generator failure. Or like you said, it failed much earlier in the flight.

In the early 2000s I worked as a bag chucker for a regional airline. The training was excellent. The ONLY vehicle that could ever be pointed directly at an aircraft was a belt loader (Food service was a third party vendor and fuel was from hoses piped from the ground).

Well that will certainly prevent that from happening again.

So just make an Android version of that. Instant success.

Remove the ramps. Possibly they'll find them in the dumpster later.

Looks like someone sucked up a tie down chain or cable. I've seen this damage before

Or "OFF", thinking it's LEFT. I never loved that feature of the PA-32.
