    Boeing’s on a streak...

    I thought the "judgement based on rumor and innuendo despite facts" part was sort of an important part of the post you quoted. ;) Nauga, sharp at both ends

    Boeing’s on a streak...

    MIT has lecturers and doctoral graduates that actually work in areas relevant to the panel, why didn't they choose one of them? Nauga, and his dog and pony

    Boeing’s on a streak...

    Keep in mind that not everyone assigns 100% of the responsibility for MCAS to Boeing. That being said, there were those who attributed the AF447 crash to Airbus' A330 human factors and handling qualities, even pointing out the perceived superiority of Boeing's control schema. Looking farther...

    Which is harder to land? Tailwheel or Glider

    If you want to convince yourself taildraggers are easier, land an RV with no crosswind on a grass field. You might not even need to wake up. If you want to convince yourself taildraggers are harder, land a Pitts with a 10kt crosswind on a hard surface. Make sure your insurance is up to date...

    Viking off airport landing Florida

    And then when it hit a car or something else it might have avoided if it had some semblance of directional control we'd pick apart why they didn't leave the gear down. Nauga, 20/20

    Piper High Wing AD

    Ouch. Wonder if AIR2202 might change people's opinions on the recent lack of NTSB recommendations in final reports. Has AOPA commented on the AD other than reporting its existence? Would be interesting to hear their take given their 'senior safety advisor' is a signatory. Nauga, who manages...

    Life-Changing Bands (or Songs)

    Sometimes I just don't want to hear anyone yelling at me. The Mag Seven is close behind The Dillinger Four in non-sequitor song names. "Put the Lotion in the Basket" is a good title but it's no "Honey, I **** in the Hot Tub" My neighbors in Oakland were not a fan of Kinski, but I still am...

    Life-Changing Bands (or Songs)

    I think I posted something by the Dex Romweber Duo back when drummer/sister Sara passed away. Dex died last week, which has got me crawling through the Flat Duo Jets and DR Duo's catalogs again. Nauga, twangy

    Van’s Aircraft ... Some Great News

    I'm not sure how the line between toy and airplane got drawn at 150 KxAS but that means there are a lot of toys with type certificates on ramps around the world and a lot of pilots are traveling in them. Nauga, and the ubiquity of it all

    Van’s Aircraft ... Some Great News

    CubCrafters, Velocity, Zenith, and Rans et al. don't do the volume that Van's does (or did), but I would hardly consider them all "toys." There are options. Choose wisely. Nauga, off the menu

    Happy Holiday, POA!

    I will celebrate with a reading from [chorus of angels] The Pratt and Whitney Handbook [/chorus of angels] and the traditional flight test feast of coffee and Doritos. nauga, who was once asked why he had a prayer book with his flight cards

    New case against flight tracking

    It was not my intent to call you out, I sincerely hoped the registration office had come to its senses. Nauga, who knows a man can dream

    New case against flight tracking

    What procedure are you referring to? I think it should be as easy as opting out of address display in the airman registry. Unfortunately I don't believe this is the case. Nauga, who hopes he is wrong
