Wouldn't surprise me in the least if most of the praise in the comments are a variable split between him complimenting himself on separate accounts and people who compliment him because they want to be passively involved in his (and probably others') deaths.

I do see your reply to the post I screenshotted so let's see if he actually lets yours in, lol e: this one's such a softball I feel like "Steve Eastwood" is his own sock puppet. Hey Jerry was that apparent screw-up intentional? Oh yes, it was, thank you for asking  big Elon Musk energy tbh Sagebrush fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Dec 12, 2020 |

Hey so random fun fact you can look up historical traces for nearly any N-number in the USA on adsbexchange https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=ab1774&lat=38.373&lon=-121.963&zoom=14.3&showTrace=2020-12-07 So here you can see that fun For extra fun click on the track and read the Spatial tab on the side to get his (transponder-reported) altitude at different points in the flight. Points of interest: - KVCB field elevation is 120' - Pattern altitude is field + 1000, so 1120' - Those berms just in front of the runway peak at about 240'

Sagebrush posted:Hey so random fun fact you can look up historical traces for nearly any N-number in the USA on adsbexchange So many people are going to get busted by the FAA if they ever automate reviewing ADS-B logs. A RV6A/7A has been buzzing the lake next to my house recently, and they've got ADS-B out. A friend was up flying at the same time, and overflew the lake at 1000 feet, and saw the RV indicated at 1000' below him going 200mph in Foreflight. Anyone can look it up! I have ADS-B out, and feel leaving it enabled and not hidden is valuable in case I ever have an accident in unpopulated terrain, but knowing how easy it is to look up tail numbers from flight paths, and figure out who just flew over your house makes me a little nervous. Some people get really mad about airplane noise and maneuvering.

The crazy thing is I've seen Jerry do exactly that thing on base/downwind to final because he's obviously flying too tight a circuit in an airplane that's too fast, and then doing the least safe thing to fix his own fuckup. What an absolute disgrace of a pilot.

He's more doomed than the raptor guy, because he truly believes he's hot poo poo, gods gift to the skies. Which is really wild. Hope he does it solo in the desert at least, and doesn't take some poor schlubs on the ground with him.

Well yeah I mean there’s been numerous times that had things not lined up correctly and he had a little less luck that’d result in a CFIT. This is like do not pass go uncontrolled flight into the ground.

wrt ADS-B out, do private owners not ever just form a trust to own the aircraft? It seems like a minor hurdle to avoid randos from looking you up.

Operators of jet or turboprop aircraft can also use a service from fltplan.com that issues them a random "dotcom" callsign for each flight, which also makes the aircraft difficult to identify or track.

Kesper North posted:Routinely. Delaware-registered LLCs also. That's often an attempt to dodge sales tax, or to avoid liability for accidents. It's really easy for states to notice aircraft sales due to the federal registry of owners, and plenty of owners try to avoid paying sales tax anyhow. The LLC tax avoidance trick is pretty well known by most states now, and I'm under the impression that you'll often get busted if you try to get away with it. Using a LLC can make you fall afoul of the extra regulations around regulation of commercial operations vs private operations, so I've heard that it's worth being really careful if you go the route of setting up a commercial company for a private plane. Much of what I wrote is second hand from aviation lawyers, no one wants to write on the internet how they are avoiding taxes or what the FAA has gone after them for.

This only works for FlightAware and Flightradar24, though; ADSBX shows everyone broadcasting along with their tail numbers. Though honestly, why FR24 blocks bizjets is beyond me; once I see a tail number with my own eyes/camera, I just trace back where the generic icon came from.

Bit late, but I've just watched that Jerry vid and...jeez. I think it's the first time I've genuinely made the  face (as he made that turn onto final and I was thinking "gonna see the runway pop out of the left margin of the screen...now.....now...any time now......now....NOW??!!") followed by the  when the stall warning chirped as he sagged to port in the final stage of that turn. I'm not sure which is scarier - Jerry's flying or the comments underneath going "ride 'em cowboy!" and "great flight, Jerry  ". Nice to see e.pilot at least getting some sense on record for others, if not into Jerry's skull.

The only mistake Jerry has ever made ( because it's the only time he's ever made a mea culpa video admitting to one) is when he turned around on the runway at Auburn and taxied onto the blast pad in order to "use the entire length." He says as he's doing it that it's fine because he saw a citation jet do it once. Yes, you can take off from the displaced threshold and the displaced threshold and the blast pad both have arrow shaped markings on them. But they look quite different from one another and are two different colors. Again this is private pilot 101 stuff; you'd fail your pre-solo phase check for not knowing the difference

He says as he's doing it that it's fine because he saw a citation jet do it once. I hadn't heard this one, and had to look it up because my memory (20 years ago when I did my pre-solo Air Law exam) was that displaced thresholds had white centreline arrows and a blastway has yellow chevrons from edge to edge. And are thus very obviously different. Turns out I was remembering right and Jerry is a dangerous idiot.

I assume that he wanted to buy a twin and felt that, as the world's greatest pilot, there was nothing in the commercial training he could learn, so why bother? I really want to know where he got his money. I used to assume he was part of some stupid dot-com 1.0 tech company and cashed out, but these days I'm leaning more towards plain old landlord.

yeah in 1999 all you had to do was pick a word from the dictionary and add "on the web" and people would dump cash on your lawn. you didn't even have to own a computer; just hire some nerds from the local college to set all that stuff up. it's much harder today because you have to pick a word from the dictionary and add "with neural networks" and those words are harder to spell.

It's also inaccurate, there's never "500,000 volts flowing through the faraday suit" there's a small amount of potential that is discharged through the probe, similar to a really nasty jolt of static electricity. The conductive Nomex suit is an added safety precaution. Here's an undramatized video of the same thing. https://youtu.be/6_NEAEGeFIw E, here's some idiot doing the same thing in a hoodie with his bare hand. https://youtu.be/6MXMJ_7mGxQ Elviscat fucked around with this message at 10:27 on Dec 13, 2020 |
