quote:The Cessna positioned itself and then started the take-off roll as the pilot made the first call to Air Traffic Control.  this seems like the point where you should really be immediately arrested or somethinge: quote:The FLG ATC tower controller stated that, during his telephone conversation with the accident pilot following the runway incursion, the pilot “kind of missed the point,” “came up with excuses” for the runway incursion, and did not know there was another airplane “out there” during the runway incursion. aaaaaaa you're at a loving airport of course there's another airplane out there!!!!

Sagebrush posted:was thinking of how both hot-and-high conditions and loaded weight change your takeoff and climb performance, so if it's real hot and there are obstacles at the end of the runway you'd better not load up too much Its a rare situation that a take off is the right choice when below gross weight, especially in GA. Generally if you cant take off at gross weight you sure as poo poo shouldn't be trying at 10% less weight or w/e you think you can gain by taking on less fuel. quote:gonna burn more fuel if you're flying into a headwind the whole trip and your ground speed is 30 knots lower than usual cis autodrag posted:Of course you all have pilots licenses, lmao you should buy one its fun and also the TSA sucks some serious garbo poo poo. Its a good 50% of the reason I decided to buy an old Beechcraft and get a PPE. That and traveling with a dog is a real PITA and its generally cheaper with private over buying a family's worth of tickets on AA or w/e.

FCKGW posted:I’m the big red no fly zone over Disneyland that's a TFR, temporary flight restriction. normally those are used for, well, temporary things, like airshows, sports games, forest fires, airports where the president is, etc. but fun fact: that one (and its mate over disney world in florida) has been in effect since ~2003. no one in the military or the FAA decided that there should be a restriction over disney parks, and indeed there are no TFRs over any other amusement parks. this one came about because disney really hated that planes were able to fly over disneyland towing advertising banners, so a disney lobbyist managed to slip those TFRs into a wide-ranging counterterrorism bill just after the iraq war started and they've stuck ever since. it makes the already extremely congested airspace over los angeles even more complicated for a small plane to navigate for no good reason, but congress certainly knows who butters their bread

MononcQc posted:uh I'd like to get sources on saguenay because I live there and have never heard of any poo poo like that. In fact Saguenay's been in the top 10 safest cities in Canada a bunch of times in the last 10 years. The Hells used to own most of the main street in Jonquiere but have mostly been kicked out and their last bunker has been destroyed around 2005. They still have members around (mostly directed from Trois-Rivières) but usually what everyone hears is just about drugs and whatnot. "census metropolitan area" naturally excludes whatever rural backwater actually has the highest rate; also that's per capita https://www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/85-002-x/2014001/article/14008-eng.htm  no surprise that four of the top five locations are places where bikers have a good toehold

Looking back at the 'safest cities' lists those are mostly about violent offenses/murder rates so the stats don't contradict. I also thought the discussion had to do with human trafficking, but those are sexual offenses as a whole (far less than 5% have to do with sexual exploitation) I think it might be disingenuous to blame sexual offenses overall on the Hells having a toehold to be honest. I wouldn't be surprised if part of it had to do with sexism and irresponsible drinking culture for example, or just plain old lovely rural areas living up to their stereotypes.

yeah that was a conclusion from a conclusion; obviously they are one of the names that comes up again and again when the topic turns to sex trafficking but that's a pretty small percentage of the "usual child sex crimes" which isn't a sentence anyone should need to type

Yeah, I mean looking at sex crimes against minors, I wouldn't be surprised if the priests actually did more harm than the Hells there. One priest in particular has been having a very public trial after finding out he had abused 39 children on his own on a period of 20+ years.FrozenVent posted:the joke around quebec is that in saguenay, cousins and sisters are ok because there's not much choice otherwise, so... yeah... It used to be true, in that most of the region of Saguenay Lac-St-Jean was founded by 21 families a couple of centuries ago and so genetic diversity was not super high. This has changed in the last few generations and nowadays the consanguinity rates are on par with the rest of the province or country, but genetically speaking the damage was already done many generations ago and few recessive genes causing multiple diseases are still widespread. People can get genetic testing for free if they're from two families of the region to prevent this -- even if you and your partner are from families that have been distinct for 3-4 generations you might still be a carrier -- and to avoid passing it on. The tests are made available in a wider area of the province this year I believe because, well, people moved out and those genes are now making it to a wider population basin within the province. It's probably a bit similar to the icelandic app that lets you know if you could accidentally be dating cousins or something. But back to techbubble: the FCC repeal stuff became official for real or something? MononcQc fucked around with this message at 15:08 on Feb 23, 2018 |
