    Really?

    Posts about puppies require MC review? Wow. Is the MC made up of cat lovers?

    Hitching a flight in Texas

    “Enjoying flying” is a common purpose. But that doesn’t matter unless you’re splitting cost. GA cost sharing should always be done quietly and in cash with no record keeping, just in case....

    Decaf coffee [NA]

    I don’t go much for high-dollar foo-foo coffees. My favorite decaf k-cups are Community and Eight O’Clock coffees. BTW, don’t forget that you can get an adapter k-cup which you can fill with any ground coffee you prefer. It takes away some of the convenience, but it works okay if you like...

    Hangar Monthly Rent

    Have you looked at the wait times for engine overhauls lately? Also consider people who are constructing an airplane. That process can easily take years.

    The self-flagellation of the frugal and mechanically minded(a rant)

    I remember reading a story about McQueen filming “LeMans” where they found that they could actually get a podium finish with the film car if they stopped making extra pit stops to re-load the cameras. McQueen had to decide whether he was more interested in making a movie or running the race.

    Insight Wanted: Survey on Catastrophic Oil Leak Detection

    If the oil departs the engine that rapidly, it will be via a sizable hole in the engine and I suspect the BANG! of one or more pistons making their exit will be a sufficient annunciator.

    Insight Wanted: Survey on Catastrophic Oil Leak Detection

    Here’s a business lesson for your group: don’t invest time and money in research if your minds are already made up and you will ignore the research and proceed anyway. If you’re convinced that there would be a market, then focus your research on what functions and features customers want...

    Insight Wanted: Survey on Catastrophic Oil Leak Detection

    Interesting perspective. Do they believe they somehow have better knowledge than the pilots? That seems rather arrogant. What evidence do they have for it being a “real concern?” What makes their opinions better than those of trained, licensed, experienced aviators? This type of “we know...

    Zombie F-35 Mishap Report Out...

    :yeahthat: , but I suspect in the F-35 it could be an even worse situation. The F-35's distributed aperture system (DAS; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AN/AAQ-37_Distributed_Aperture_System ) displays outside imagery on the helmet display from a suite of imaging sensors, essentially giving the...
