    Boeing's streak continues: 737 Gear Collapse

    This is a ridiculous thread - it ain't a Boeing problem when pilots roll long and try - too late and too fast - to turn off at the end of the runway.

    Henning gone west

    I don't recall details any more, but he explicitly took steps to ensure he'd be banned; a series of blatantly offensive, rule-breaking, posts. He got his wish. --- Sad to read of his passing - of course he was a tortured soul, but you could surely never call him dull. Had the pleasure of...

    PPR and Landing Fee Nonsense Again in Vegas for Superbowl

    Oh, now, you're smarter than that. I know of nowhere that paid street parking on public streest increases in cost when there's a big event on. It fills, then that's that. Are they going to charge a special toll for the use of the Interstate highways? Local roads?

    Talking on the radio improvements

    I found early-on that I was trying to talk fast - felt pressure to do so - but that in so doing, I was actually taking up more time rather than less, because "say again" was a frequent result. Pause, say fewer words, speak slowly and clearly and think out scenarios in advance, how you might...

    What is Going on at KBJC (Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport)/Cost to Relocate Port a Port Hangar

    True enough; but as a recipient of federal IAP grant funds, there are numerous provisions as to what the airport sponsor is and is not allowed to *do* with the airport. It's not just a toy with which the sponsor (through whomever is manager) can do as it wishes without limitation. Now, it...

    PPR and Landing Fee Nonsense Again in Vegas for Superbowl

    "Supply and Demand" is not a valid method for a publicly-owned asset. It is (by law) supposed to serve all on a non-discriminatory manner.

    HIMS AME told me to not report

    On the one hand, as OP has noted, the odds of it being discovered are slim. On the other hand (1) failing to disclose a known and diagnosed condition is a criminal offense, and (2) if it comes up, it could materially cripple your ability to be an airman in the first place. Bottom line: if...

    Engine Vibration

    Bryan: when you write, “when I increase the prop pitch,” do you mean “increase rpm“ (which means decreasing the prop pitch)?

    Time for a new stove...

    You're unlikely to find a range combining gas cooktop and electric range functionality; but, if you're OK with splitting functions, you could easily have an electric wall oven below-counter, and a gas cooktop on top, as long as you can manage the venting from the oven through the wall. You'd...

    [NA] Too Good To Be True? Product Review

    I am reminded of the "gas-saving" devices that were all over during the gas crisis years of the 70s. I worked at a parts house, owner was an old-line mechanic and service station owner ("never say 'gas station'!"). Traveling salesman came in to hawk his device (it was placed in-line, between...

    Weird Walk-Arounds !

    Crack in the case around the base of No. 2 cylinder. Long crack, seeping oil; not acceptable for continued use for both reasons. Definitely was not there on prior flight. Never started the engine again, and it was accepted by Continental as a core. Got my attention.

    Lancair in McKinney 11/11/23

    Aero Country has 4300’ ish runway, but the northern part is turf. Wonder if pilot was unfamiliar and/or unwilling to use the (very smooth) turf portion?
