    Single Engine down in Nashville - KJWN

    Looks like it was on approach to John Tune ~7:45pm - ended up on the east side of I-40 in West Nashville. RIP to those lost - condolences to their families and loved ones. https://www.wkrn.com/news/local-news/nashville/plane-crash-reported-near-i-40-east-in-west-nashville/

    Sub lost contact over Titanic

    That hull/vessel looks to be excruciatingly simple. I suspect the wireless game controller - which would make it a no-go for me, means that there are few if any penetrations to the vessel hull. Implosion anywhere in operational depth is less likely than incapacitation of crew or failure of all...

    AI drones - probably not best idea.

    Maybe the consolation is that… if there is any “I” in the AI, it won’t bother asking us if we want to play a game. ?? We’re a peculiar species of cat in all of this.

    L.A. weather

    83 and sunny in Mid TN yesterday. It has warmed up to 47 deg here in Burbank this morning as rain pelts my hotel window. FYI: convertibles are renting for cheap this week.

    Army Helicopters - 300’AGL, night, residential??

    copy that on the Kiowas. haha.. Turns out, metro police does have (2) helicopters. According to Flightaware, both metro police helicopters show flights tonight, but neither were in the air at 8:30pm CST - and they are not shown as having been in the air at the same time. The only MPD flight...

    Army Helicopters - 300’AGL, night, residential??

    ^^ I guess it could be, but this was an offset tandem pair. I've never seen our law enforcement operate like that, and I don't know that we have (2) single turbine helicopters. I see Metro's Airbus track... doesn't match what I saw, and there's only 1. Most likely the 160th out of Ft...

    Army Helicopters - 300’AGL, night, residential??

    hahahahahaaaa.. probably that. It was so odd… the track they were on and how low they were. We live incredibly close to John Tune, so I’m used to seeing Ft. Campbell flights passing over every now and then, but they are always 500’+ AGL - headed toward farm land. Where these guys/gals were...

    Army Helicopters - 300’AGL, night, residential??

    Green Hills- Nashville (2) - sounded like Kiowas… running offset tandem. Not more than 300’ AGL- no strobe- just (red & green?) navigational lights. Running north to south over an exclusively dense residential area… where terrain rises as they go south. No signature or track of...

    Plane lands on Golf Course in Evansville, IN

    Wow - respect for the pilot and the puns. This reads like a good cup of coffee. Everyone on that plane is definitely going to lay up for a while after this.

    Helicopter Incident at John Tune

    https://fox17.com/news/local/helicopter-incident-reported-at-john-c-tune-airport-nashville-tennessee# No word on what or whom. They fly a LOT of Robinson training/hour building flights around the area. I see/hear them constantly when I'm out fishing.

    "We're all gonna die!!!"

    ... and then sometimes an unruly passenger has to be subdued, restrained, and detained just to get to the diversion destination. :eek:

    "We're all gonna die!!!"

    ugh. -been on one of those flights. The law needs to clamp down on... the laws? haha... Every commercial passenger needs to remember that we don't tolerate anyone messing with our flight crews. We've been shown the worst, and once something becomes obvious, the buck stops with each passenger.

    Favorite coffee

    Agreed. Ethiopian varieties tend to be more... peppy, and light roast Ethiopian generally have so much flavor!! Madcap coffee and Onyx coffee are both great beans.

    Stolen King Air still flying as of 8:38am on Sat (9-3-22)

    That's rough. hopeing for some sort of peace for him and his loved ones. dang. Surely the ANG has a radius now on this guy. I would shudder to think who is watching how long of a leash a crazy plane gets these days.
