  1. Not entirely true. I had a type rating added with just a Form 8. Met the FSDO, brought my plastic card, showed him the Form 8 and went on my way. If memory serves me, folks like experimental test pilots can get ratings added with at least 10 hours PIC, but that I’m less sure of. Memory on that reg is hazy. Here’s the mil equivalent list.
  2. Burn it with fire. Sacrilege.
  3. I guess this dipshit was competing with the quadruple amputee cornhole player for lowest IQ of the year.
  4. We would have been unburdened by what has been. And by that, I’m referring to our alliance with THE Republic of North Korea and their influence over Iran. Things would been 1000x better with her at the helm of this ship…
  5. No fucking way. If true, it’s time for that guy to hang up the harness and find a way into some sort of ground combat branch since that’s clearly where Murphy wants him.
  6. More than 40 years in the making. About damn time.
  7. The bar wasn’t set that high, and yet…

    “The registration number for the boat provided by the Cuban government, FL7726SH, showed it was a 24-foot Pro-Line center console fishing vessel built in 1981.” As a boater, this whole thing is making me chuckle. Leave it to modern day media to sensationalize a nearly 5 decade old fishing boat as a “speedboat.” Before seeing the contents of the headlines, I envisioned some douche from Miami in a jet powered F-U money special trying to take a quick trip for that proverbial mojito.
  9. Duly noted. I don’t think anybody can afford to build new computers at this rate. RAM prices have gone ballistic.
  10. I have no plausible deniability on this one. Sounds like y'all don’t either!
  11. Not sure that it’s the right thread…but does anybody have a strong recommendation for an at-home VR headset? I want to get one to mess around with rotary wing stuff at my house. Seems like the two best bang for the buck options are PlayStation VR2 and Meta Quest 3. I have a home built PC that will run MSFS and Xplane just fine, but want to level-up to VR for immersion
  12. One of the better uses of AI I have seen to date. Imagining the old lady as Congress. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1DAuJ7XTnC/
  13. No. That object has IR emissivity, and has been intentionally tracked…hence the tight auto-track gate. He’s also using a designator on the object. Highly doubtful he was doing that for laser hand-off or just to get refined movement information.
  14. They could make a movie about that airport and all of the shenanigans. Too many quotable quotes to count.
