  1. I sold my custom Mirage rig after my big PG accident. I regret it to this day. Been trying to find it to buy it back as well. Looking back, I know I could have figured it out without selling the rig. If the rig is custom and has some personal value to you, Other than just being a parachute, figure it out without selling it. -SPACE-
  2. Mooney, Rock your wings. Mooney, Rock your wings. , , , Mooney follow yellow cub on 100' final at 45kts. Yellow cub be sure to do a short field rollout and hesitate as long as you want on the runway threshhold. Mooney DO NOT go around. rock wing if you will comply or GTFO -SPACE-
  3. If you cant laugh at your self, crawl up and die somewhere my point exactly.
  4. Spot on, Hilarious video. thank you. it kinda seems like the people who that video was making fun of are the ones who are enjoying it. I guess that is good.
  5. meaning, if all those 3500 hours are legitimate, he still messed up pretty bad. Highly doubt any kind of mechanical failure. that thing will fly fine on one motor, especially with only one girl in back. -SPACE-
  6. Maybe, but at the same time controllers aren't going to ask a jet to fly the same pattern as a Cub. They would have allowed him the room to fly a standard pattern it whatever his normal approach speed would be. On top of that, the guy has 3500 hours PIC in a Citation, and 800-some hours in the Premiere (not to mention all the time in smaller planes and his P-51). Hopefully when he's feeling better, he'll give us the full story. If not, between interviews with the pilot and the 10,000 pilot-spectators, plus the info from his GPS and the wreckage, I have a pretty good feelnig the NTSB will figure this one with a high degree of certainty. It might take a year, but they'll get it done. Speaking of which, did they post a preliminary report yet? whatever. I have 15 hours in a A320 and 5 hours in a 757. but I have never flown one alone. -SPACE-

    Ukraine

    Any Ukrainians post here? I will be flying into Kiev on the 1st or 2nd, driving to Simferopol to paraglide for a few days, then back North. leaving on the 7th or 8th. anyone be around there? I will also have BASE gear. -SPACE-
  8. I hate defending a NASCAR muppet in any way, but if anyone else has flown into Oshkosh during the event you know it is pretty weird. The air traffic is controled in a very unique way as there is SOOO MUCH air traffic trying to land in the area. Nearly all radio is one-way for ATC, and aircraft are meant to comply or leave the area Of course, this is NO REASON to fly unsafe, unpracticed landing patterns, but I bet he got flustered and overloaded flying such a fast airplane being instructed to land in such short sequence. -SPACE-
  9. he is a NASCAR driver. 2 dimensional skills, lots of money and a huge ego. at least he did not kill the Mrs.

  11. I was 6 when this show started on TV, I was not allowed to watch it. By the time I was "old enough" I was in high school and flying and girls took my time. Now, I have a little time at night while the GF is sleeping to catch up. I have a huge problem/gift where I can appreciate where the storyteller wants the film to go originally, before the network or producer makes the movie lame. I can ignore acting, effects, etc and appreciate it. If not for Hollywood, films like Sunshine and Pandorum could have been a few of the best sci fi films yet. -SPACE-
  12. Almost done with the first season. I must say, the idea is awesome, character development excellent, effects are ok for the time of the show, historical references are good, but the writing, yeah. terrible. -SPACE-
  13. I did my LMPSAT and got rid of the G-GF. Luckily before the ADR got going. Still cant get the PMP out though. It was a good year.
  14. I think what this is saying is Colorado wins and the bible belt continues to be disgusting on so many levels.
  15. the horror.... sell all your apple stock!!! -SPACE-

    Sexism

    WAIT. he is not the first to have this idea of OVERPOPULATION? how could I have been so obtuse? Hmm... I don't trust very many people, men or women, but I trust her. and she dislikes the idea of having a child more than I do it seems.

    Sexism

    READ: I laughed pretty hard at this. The comedian is exaggerating, of course but I believe he has a point. This video is not about sexism, but a comedy sketch on overpopulation. I showed it to my girlfriend of 5 years and instead of laughing, got pissed and told me it was sexist. I cannot pride myself in saying I am 100% not sexist, but neither are you or anyone else in the world. The GF thinks this is blaming overpopulation on women through the use of the uteri noun, etc. I think he was just being funny. I would like to have the opinion of the women in this forum, so I can be better educated not only in arguing with the GF, but understanding sexism in modern culture. I live in a house with my GF and my sister, both declared 'feminists' "but not the female extremist kind" (NOTE- FORGET THE CLIMATE CHANGE BS, JUST JUDGE ON THE OVERPOPULATION COMMENTS) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkgDhDa4HHo
  20. Matt this is a myth Liberals continue to spew. It's just not true. The media are the last people to listen to since the media are Liberals and are in the business to brainwash people into whatever agenda they want to pursue. Liberals who happen to be scientists (and other technical fields) are obviously very intelligent individuals. But Liberals who majored in Art History and other Social Studies continue to pound their chest proclaiming their supreme intellect while non-liberal business oriented entrepreneurial individuals are far more intelligent, have much stronger work ethics and are the bread and butter than keeps the economy ticking (and before anyone whines about the current recession, anyone with half a brain with knowledge about how economies work knows the economy is cyclical. There will always be times of growth and times when the economy is pushed too far and it is time to recede). So for all the University educated people who majored in business, science, technology, engineering and medical fields (plus a few others) my hat goes off to you people. You are very smart. For all the University educated people who majored in Liberal Art History and other social studies ... STFU with your rhetoric about how supremely intelligent that you are because the vast majority of the time you are wasting everyone's time spewing forth your useless crap that nobody but yourself and your fellow lemmings care about. I will say one thing though. All these leftist Liberal artsy'farts socialists are damn good at indoctrinating the youth of the world into their Marxist ideology. The battle is not lost, but many young people these days (thanks to the pathetic state of the family and the piss poor job parents are doing raising their children) may not call themselves communists, but they sure believe in the Marxist dream. The goal of world communism may just be a few short decades away. Why work in life when you can be brainwashed from a young age by all the educators you are ever exposed to that the nanny state will be there to manage every aspect of your life for you. I have no argument here. maybe a better way for me to put it would be "researchers seem to believe" instead of "studies show". It's not like I am monotonous. -SPACE-
  21. Maybe because studies show that liberals are on average more intelligent than the opposing parties? http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/02/26/liberals.atheists.sex.intelligence/index.html
