Cleared for Takeoff
I always thought "push forward to go faster" made the most sense to me. But I'm not a fireman.

Yes, now it seems funny that I had that problem. But they both were different and I had to stop and think where I was until it came by reflex.
No, it was a joke.
The only places that could 'secede' are the ones that were some sort of entity before becoming states. The colonies, California and maybe texas. The rest, like Alaska were possessions of the federal goverment before they were turned into states.
Texas is the only that was ever its own country, so it's also the only state that can secede.

So why didn't the robber barons just annex BC from those wimps in Canada so we could achieve the "manifest destiny" of making Alaska contiguous?
RUNAWAY TRIM!!!!!
Would Texas succeed in seceding if it did it again in succession after it tried in 1861? I don't see it.

RUNAWAY TRIM!!!!!
It's a Johnson Bar style in the front seat on the left side, has a release button that must be pushed, but you can't push it while you are pulling on it.Duhn-da-unhn-da DUNN!!
HE COULD LOSE CONTROL OF THE PLANE! Even after he pulled the trim breaker! ..and used his knee to on the trim wheel disengage the trim motor...the trim wheel that still works...that you see him suing.
Duhn-da-unhn-da DUNN!!
Jim can't land the SuperCub if Ariel can't pull the flaps! Did you see that rought landing? THANK FSM he's a good pilot and he was able to handle it! (Does it have a Johnson bar for flaps? He says "switch." You just know she couldn't grok pushing the release button.)
Duhn-da-unhn-da DUNN!!
Luckily he had flaps on takeoff.
According to the FAA register it's not a Super Cub -- it's a PA-12, no doubt modified with Super Cub wings and landing gear.Jim can't land the SuperCub if Ariel can't pull the flaps!

It was the same plane. The wheels are up or down relative to the skis. But not having flaps, now that's just crazy!Did anyone notice that the skis on the plane that is being put on the runway doesn't have wheels? The plane that was flying and landing did. I think it was two different planes.

Icing is responsible for 64% of all single engine airplane crashes and the FAA says I can't takeoff without a mile visibility....
Noone tell them I took off 500 and a half from BAZ today......
You can take off in zero/zero... but you're not a commercial operator.
... or the 207 with the magic changeable registration numbers on the side -- N9400M on short final, then something ending in 73U as the airplane touches down.My favorite from tonight's episode is the icing that is strait up and down and the Unalakleet landing that is initially lines up on 1L, lands on 15 with a dirt landing, and then is on a paved strip.

In other words, that airplane didn't even have flaps when it was built. How did it ever land?!
The editing cracks me up. I hope Jim and Ariel weren't having that dialogue about the flaps when they're ten feet off the snow, as the juxtaposition of interior and exterior shots suggested.

I laughed out loud when I saw the ice hanging straight down. I think they call that ramp ice.
Ok guys, I have a totally stupid question.
With all the drama about getting vaccines and antibiotics to the distant towns in questionable weather, why don't they rig a plane to do parachute drops of supplies? Seems pretty simple and legal to drop 10-20 lbs of supplies under a parachute.
I thought the same thing. When the lady drops the vaccines off at the airport, she specifies that they be hand-carried to the airport, suggesting that they're fragile.
Some of the other supplies I suppose could be dropped, but unless it were a life or death emergency I'd bet the logistic and liability problems would rule it out.
Last season started off great. Began to lose interest by the end of the season ( too much fluff, and contrived drama) This season is far worse. Might have something to do with the ding-bat producer, Ariel Tweeto. A real let down from a show that had great potential.
