    Why is my mechanic so against a turbo?

    My mechanic who drives a Porsche and has a cabin cruiser boat says I need a turbo airplane, preferably 2 of them. The older the better.

    KSMO / Vector stupidity

    Do they actually do anything to collect? Would they put a lien on your airplane? I would tell them to stuff it. I am getting an invoice for landing fees 18 months after I flew in. I dont think they can collect.

    NA. How to treat parents?

    Can we spin this around where the parent doesn't get along with his son? Mine is 18, zero ambition, no job, barely passing high school, but is capable, just lazy, go to eat with him and I get barely a reply on open ended questions. I offered to pay him to work on my house, sanding trim, grunt...

    Can a HOA impose and collect fines for speeding (NC state)

    Sounds like they have either a power hungry HOA with a bunch of old people with nothing to do OR they have a legitimate speeding issue. Maybe a solution that would be more effective is to install the cameras and then just shame these people, for the children and what not? For the record not...

    Today’s headline: Passengers to be compensated for “airline controllable” delays.

    Just run a bigger CAT 5 cable and relocate the screens to somewhere to where people want to live. N90 problem solved.

    Welp - TSA's no-fly list found on unsecured server, 1.5MM entries exposed

    I remember flying 135 about 2005 and we had to check passengers against an excel spreadsheet someone downloaded from somewhere. We could check anybody we wanted I guess. My recollection and understanding might be off though, it was not a sophisticated solution.

    (NA)Office chairs for about the price of a Tomahawk (NA)

    I am dealing with inflated prices on an industrial switch mechanism. My price from distributor is $110, up from $90, but the lead time went to 10+ weeks, found 2 on eBay for $270, and another 2 for $325. And went up from there.

    Anybody invested in Crypto?

    How Crypto Currency works… an analogy in layman’s terms. Not long ago a merchant found a lot of monkeys that lived near a certain Village. One day he came to the Village saying he wanted to buy these monkeys. He announced that he would buy the monkeys at $100 each. The Villagers thought that...

    Anyone buying a Rivian?

    the writing is on the wall, the big automakers are jumping in this market some of them will have better products at better prices than Tesla. It is only recently that Tesla has made money. All I was saying is wait a few more years before buying electric.

    Anyone buying a Rivian?

    I think electric is the future, but I think in 5 more years the technology will have matured. As they say I dont like flying the A-model of anything.
