    5 killed in tourist helicopter crash in Smoky Mountains

    Pretty boring life they've got since I assume they've also ruled out boats, cars and motorcycles as too dangerous because I'm sure they're basing their assessments on facts and statistics rather than hysteria and overblown new coverage... RIP to those lost.

    Tesla Model 3 Announcement tonight

    Renewable energy accounted for less than 15% of energy produced in the US last year. EVs are not viable for a large percentage of Americans because of this.

    What to do near Miami (OH) University

    What would make you rent more?

    I like number 2 the most of those examples. What would really make me fly more is a nice 150/152 since 80% of my flying is me and a pax and probably 60% local. 172 rates at my club are reasonable but I'm just paying more to haul empty seats.

    New Supersonic Jet?

    First flight by the end of next year and a letter of intent from an unnamed airline for 15!? I'm skeptical. http://www.flyingmag.com/boom-supersonic-passenger-aircraft-emerges?src=SOC&dom=tw
