Well, being a PPL myself had never really heard of the N number changing, but according to Wiki... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_registration It's really more "like" a license plate than it is a VIN. A new owner "can" change it, but does not have to, a design change, etc. New info for me also. Very informative article to include a country table towards the bottom.

Well, SHIT!!! I just may lose my AB#2 status... I'm 6'6" and average 260, but can get down to 235 for boogie season. Yeah, helped a lot of AB's over the years. Anyway, back to suits. Here again, I know nothing of EG's Big Guy Suit, but here's my input from another thread on suits and another. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

A Missouri Sheriff stops at a ranch in rural MO and talks with an old farmer. He tells the farmer, 'I need to inspect your ranch for illegal grown drugs.' The old farmer says, 'Okay, but don't go in that field over there.' The Sheriff verbally explodes saying,'Mister, I have the authority of the Sheriffs Department with me.' Reaching into his rear pant pocket and removing his badge. The officer proudly displays it to the farmer. 'See this badge? This badge means I am allowed to go wherever I wish..on any land. No questions asked or answers given. Have I made myself clear? Do you understand?' The old farmer nods politely and goes about his chores. Later, the old farmer hears loud screams and sees the Sheriff running for his life and close behind is the farmer's bull. With every step the bull is gaining ground on the officer. The Sheriff is clearly terrified and screaming louder with each step of the bull gaining on him. The old farmer immediately throws down his tools, runs to the fence and yells at the top of his lungs....'Your badge! Show him your badge, Smartass!

Head bouncing. Rolling on the shoulder. Throwing out the wrist. IMO, doesn't sound too much like a "by the book" PLF. EDIT: Oops... shoulda read the whole thread... you're down there with a few former or current Airbornes... bet them a beer they can't do any kind of PLF off that moving pickup truck. The issue here is not whether PLF's will work or not.... the issue is - do Instructors give PLFs the attention they deserve in the FJC. I'm always intrigued when visiting a DZ and see there's an enormous amount of time given to EP's, but a couple of cool rolls off a chair and we consider the PLF block of instruction good [insert golf clap here]. Several on here have heard my old rant... "Shouldn't we spend more time teaching PLF's than EP's since one will probably use PLF's more than EP's in these days and times?"

I can talk all day long about TonySuit or FliteSuit Big Boy suits, but while knowing EG have never seen/heard of EG Big Guy Suit. Do you have a pic or links or specs? Can you also give us an idea as to your height, weight and discipline of choice for the suit? Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Which is not just about the "Environment," but about liability and insurance also. And, as you say is an addendum to just about any bill that affects public land. Unless, we're leveraging that public land for loan collateral. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Speaking directly to your question.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excitotoxicity http://www.curezone.com/art/read.asp?ID=52&db=6&C0=17 I am not a scientist, but have a theory that the growing incidence of cancer is in our food. Not necessarily contributed to any one thing, but multiple combinations of; preservatives, more preservatives added throughout the food chain, stored in plastics, microwaves, etc. Starting with the food chain, there is not enough regulation or inspection in the food chain (now, this part I do know). Did you know there is nothing to prevent each organization in the food chain from adding preservatives, so food can literally have more preservatives thrown in during each step. The process is encouraged not by the federal government, but by the insurance companies - because of US. The manufacturers of a litigious society demands protection from their customers and in turn is actually causing them harm; but can show in court they are diligently protecting their customers.

Conversely, the same is true. Both stick around because they don't respect themselves enough to understand that being alone is better than being disrespectful in a relationship.

The success of drug decriminalization in Portugal
BIGUN replied to nerdgirl's topic in Speakers Corner
I cannot find the exact study case, but I really doubt it was a properly controlled double-blind study (which would get several groups of different teens, and have all groups to smoke marijuana). If the study limits itself to only those who already smoked, then it cannot answer the question whether the marijuana was a cause for those suicides, or whether those who were mentally likely to commit suicide started smoking marijuana. Same with the rest of the study. Note that survey does not mention "illegal drugs", which makes it useless to prove your case. This is called "speculation", and could link those death to everything, from alien invasion to global warming. Yet another useless example. This was not illegal pot smoking which resulted in crash. This was driving under influence - which is already illegal. What is your point? This is a good example to prove that banning drugs has absolutely no effect on safety. They ARE banned; did it help Chris? What if another person left paralyzed, should we amputate arms and/or legs on the impaired driver? If an impaired driver collided with another car which had family of three and people from both cars died, should we also have death penalty for the members of impaired driver family? You're now sound like a Congressman who says "I gonna side up with you on providing benefits to disabled veterans if Chrysler gets a $5B loan".

Without my cousin in the equation, did you read the part about 4000-8000 deaths PER YEAR. That's a whole lot of irresponsibility for which to account. You know... kinda like everyone jumping up and down about 4,000 soldiers dying over a five year period, but this many in just a one year time period. Impaired vs. distracted... but I am actually in agreement with you on this point. I do think the taking of any life whether distracted or impaired should be exceedingly severe.

Note: "10 percent to 22 percent of drivers involved in crashes had drugs in their system. That year, more than 42,642 people died on U.S. roads." Using this stat, isn't it ironic that ~4000-8000 automobile fatalities are those with drugs in their system, but "generally" those in favor of legalizing marijuana throw rocks at the fatalities that are alcohol related? On a personal note, my cousin Chris came back from Vietnam. He left a bright intelligent young man with the world in front of him. He was in the Navy and was did not see any combat. What he did see was an introduction to seemingly harmless marijuana. He came back from 'nam and would hang around the guys smoking dope... Marijuana turned into MJ and alcohol, both turned into smoking thai sticks, then coke, then heroin, then combinations of all. One night Chris on some combination of cocktails decided to drive home... He didn't make it and the father of the family driving the other vehicle didn't make it. So, here's my suggestion and you won't like it... Driving while impaired that results in the death of another should warrant the death penalty. I mean if it was a death penalty for the other person; doesn't it seem fair that it should be a death penalty for the impaired driver? I'm willing to step to your side of voting for the legalization; if you are willing to step to my side of the death penalty being on the same bill for those who take a life while impaired. But, you won't agree to that will you? Keith Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
