ERM... Actually I have stellar scores on the surveys, and every year students tell me that my classes are the best ones they’ve ever taken.
https://globe.adsbexchange.com/ is better than flightradar imo because it shows all the flights. FlightRadar doesn't show military flights even if they've got their transponders on, but I've spotted everything from T-38s to U-2s on adsbexchange. And more egregiously, FR has a program where rich people can pay to have their flights hidden from the interface. gently caress you Elon (N628TS) I see you flying to Europe in the middle of the lockdown.

FlightRadar has better coverage over the oceans but who cares about boring tubeliners going over the oceans.

Right on, I like it. I'm still not seeing anything at PAED, even though I could hear massive bursts of F/A-18's (vibrating my apartment from 2 miles from the hold short lines) this morning, is there a way to go back in time with it?

Since transit is a separate category, I'm assuming rail also considers freight rail, in which case a B is probably appropriate since America has a pretty well developed freight system.

Of course most of that used to also be passenger rail, and we've scrapped a lot of it as well because trucks are a blight on the nation, so it could be much better. But it's not terrible.

right, the "rail" category is mostly just freight rail, of which america has a really great system

long distance passenger rail is in there too but, meh. it cant compete with commercial flight or just driving where you want to go

Oh that's neat. I see you, Northrop Grumman RQ-4B Global Hawk flying laps from Greece and into Ukraine at 54k feet.
(Norway is incredibly empty, still - a couple of SAS flights into the big cities, some small Widerøe propeller planes on the west/north coast routes, an ambulance helicopter and two I guess are heading to the oil platforms.)

I won't say they deserve to die, but gently caress them forever for trying to pass in what is clearly a no passing zone around a larger, view obstructing vehicle, on a road turning to the right where you can't see if there's oncoming traffic. They put their passenger at risk for no reason. Just wait a bit.

It's negligence. The rider was negligent with his and the passengers' safety. He blatantly tried passing in oncoming traffic, playing chicken with the other drivers, and he deservedly lost.

Ride a motorcycle and have fun, but don't go blaming someone else when you cross the line into oncoming traffic.
