As a pilot, I agree completely. I'm fine with me, it's the rest of you that are awful sketchy ;).
I've been in the shop for the past few months so had to fly commercial for Christmas. After we...
Regardless of where/who/how you build the site, it's really hard to beat amazon web services for hosting.
How much traffic are you gonna see? Mostly people just looking at pics and plucking a...
Tell me where you live so I can put a helicopter next to your house ;)
Corporate loopholes and give-aways are tax cuts too. I pay as a percentage of profit 3x what Apple pays, and last time I looked they could buy Exxon with cash on hand.
Err, I don't know how I confused Chicago with Oklahoma. Yankees either way I guess :rolleyes::D
My best recent example, overheard at KORK in North Little Rock, AR:

Just noticed on the reddit woodworking section, for those in and around Oklahoma.
Ugh, it's like babysitting toddlers.
The one I have listing my house now doesn't get along with a friend and former employee. The friend/former employee worked for me in the restoration of that...
That top is fantastic. Good grain matching work there.

There's a website called historic homeworks, everything you might want to know (and somethings you don't!) about wooden windows are on there. No money, all the videos and tutorials and what not on...
We're not gonna pull that off without a stiff breeze! Maybe if we rented a 152 ;). Mine will stall at ~70 knots.
I have only had to pull the emergency gear release in anger once in my few...
Ok but you have to remember the gear alarm.
On my last 2 year review (for those not familiar you have to go re-take an FAA exam with an instructor every 2 years to keep your license current), I...
Sure, we could do that. I go to NLR pretty regularly, I still have a house for sale up there. Next time I'm up, I'll take ya for a ride if you wanna go.
PM'ing you my email/cell in a sec.

So am I.
The effect on your mind is different. 5,000 feet or 25,000 feet...it all pretty much looks the same. You don't even really appreciate ground proximity until you're down into final...
For the life of me I can't figure out why Gulfstream is so synonymous with high end private aviation, whereas by the numbers the Falcon 50 (and its newer variants) looks to be a superior airplane in...
That's exactly why I wound up with my Commander. It's not as fast as Mooneys and Bonanzas are, but I have a center console for my diet coke, and deep leather seats that are not bolted directly to...
I think that's overkill.
I had a PM66, 18" planer, 8" jointer. Never had a lack of air moving ability with a 1.5hp Oneida cyclone, using one machine at a time via 6" main pipe and 4" drops.

Awhile back there was an incident in Africa involving a 747 (I think?) pilot texting while taxiing that ended in him plowing the wing into a hangar, can't find the video for the life of me, though.
Very nice, John, getting some aerobatic time is on the short list, we have a guy at my home base who used to fly the SR71 that gives people aerobatic lessons in a Citabria as well.
Mike, one of...
I haven't been on this forum in awhile, since finishing the work on the old house I was working on, just re-upped.
Thankfully I was able to find a more expensive hobby than buying electrically...
In general reddish finishes (of which Waterlox is one) and walnut get along very well together.
I would grain fill the walnut somehow, though, you don't appreciate how rough the porous grain is...
I must admit, Pete Carroll has done a fine job of building a team there. Russell Wilson has a cannon for an arm and Marshawn Lynch is the best workhorse RB to come into the NFL in the past 10 years....
I'm not a musician, firstly, but have a basic understanding of these debates from reading them over the years.
I get that EJ likes his old school gear and for studio use, hey, that's great. But...
