Perhaps. I could argue stay-the-course/sunk cost fallacies are also an emotional response. We'll have to wait and see how the cookie crumbles on this one.

Well, the bankruptcy filings have been a very informative read. Had no idea they were dealing with that kinda keesh against big dady Lyco, #1 on the list of 20-primary/preferred/potato secured creditors. In fairness, Lyco prices are stupid wacked out too, so in reality it's probably not that...

Take note boys and girls, this is what undiagnosed narcissism disorder looks and sounds like. Perfectly curated in the cloud for all to like and subscribe. Psychology departments should incorporate the content in their curricula, zero sarcasm it's honestly the only net value added to this...

Going under? Nobody said that, I certainly didn't; they're filing chapter 11 after all. I simply said given the overseer choice, Glasair 2.0 sounds like a very probable blueprint.

I was being facetious with the term.

With friend like these.. Gawd i cant wait for mosaic to deliver a hail mary and create an expanded LSRM for prior non-lsa airplanes. Id incur the training even as an eab owner just for the schadenfreude.

I prefer pathetic, but yes indeed. M2 imprudent juicing has consequences. The US is quickly pricing itself into the dustbin of sunsetting empires, 9 million "traitors" (expat) unofficially (state dept no longer publishes it) making use of geoarbitrage to compensate for this decay in material...

The copium on this topic promises to be epic. I'm sure they've started deleting posts over on the ministry of truth on that other site. buh buh hangErs aRe fullz and gA is tHriVibin' :stirpot: Tribal affinity for the toy notwithstanding, they weren't immune from the covid fomo that overtook...

Don't strawman my position. I merely challenged your attempted flex about high interest rates in the past, in a conversation about present day buyers complaining about 7% rates. I retorted that 1992's rates were not the burden you imply they were, compared to today. That was my actual position...

All due respect, being house poor in 1992, is on you. The median income to house price when interest rates were 15% (1992) was 4.5. Today, with rates in the 7ish%, it is 7.51. Almost double the ratio. Inflation adjusted real wages (it's not a colloquialism, that term has a technical meaning...

Then replace it prophylactically, and eat the MIF opportunity cost; and present day prices/labor of course. Don't fret (pun very much intended) about it; 'Fly to fail' is only reserved for those of us "cheapskates" who like to practice our engine-out procedures in Squid Game mode. :D All...

Mostly lucky. This is ERAU 2.0 from where I sit. Garden variety [lack of]M-IF. Typical puppy mill maintained 50 year trainers never meant to be banging around this long anyways (painted over the bolt assembly, appears to be his leading theory). I don't know if he meant proverbially/conjecture...

saves on brake pads, I like it. #EABFTW

I got no love lost for the admin law kangaroo court the FAA relies on, but I think folks are extrapolating a bit much on the repercussions of this SCOTUS potential ruling. ah yes, the good ol' 5th circuit. I knew this had their name written all over it. :rolleyes:

*shhhhhh* side by sides are for meow meows, not manly red blooded fighter pilots. He should stick to the real thing and go tandem tail draggers all the way. Leave those ghastly side by side training wheeled EABs to us meow meows to have at a discount :stirpot: :biggrin:.

More are lost to landfills than air force eulogies, by orders of magnitude. Your affinity for the conservation of said musical device is safe.

That's usually how they get procured on the ones I've been privy to. Folks volunteering to throw away their junk.

To be clear they didn't invent it; it's an appropriation of a British custom (yes, US airmen also appropriated it). Ukrainian appropriation probably stems from the outsized influence our training footprint of their professional force, including their airmen, has had in the intervening years...

Bingo. Quoted because I can't like it twice.

...because they're impostors. Well, financed millionaires, if you prefer euphemisms. They don't have any actual money of their own. And most are varying levels of tax cheats too. New airplanes are priced for tax sheltering. It's the stuff they can't finance what drives any scintilla of...
