    Food Caused Dizzyness?

    I haven't been on an airplane since July, and haven't eaten on one since coming back from Germany in September 2022. We didn't eat on the flights to/from Keflavik, we had dinner at JFK on the outbound leg and in Reykjavik on the way back, plus a hot dog at the airport. It turns out that...

    Food Caused Dizzyness?

    Yesterday evening, after enjoying a track day at Atlanta Motorsports Park, I stopped at a Panda Express for dinner. I had some chow mein, orange chicken, string bean chicken, and iced tea. I've eaten all those things numerous time with no problems. I drove home, and about two hours after I ate I...

    I bid none: none dollars

    It's up to $6100. At this rate, it's going to hit five figures.

    I’m calling the peak

    If pilots were getting out of aviation, I'd expect avgas consumption to decrease, but looking at USEIA's product supplied figures, consumption is up by 10 percent year over year. Clarification, that's the first six months of 2024 compared to the first six months of 2023.
