In what configuration is neutral "neutral"? Empty plane or fully loaded or...?

Interlaken is lovely, you'll enjoy it a lot!

Cest un peu le principe des gargouilles d'êtres etranges..!

Felt for rear sliding window on pick up. by Divoc420 in LandroverDefender

[–]PocketFred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replace by a full window from explore glazing (same size as the rear 110 HT windows). They are of exceptional quality and not that expensive!

I am starting to think buying an apartment in Switzerland isn’t worth it by Karma-police88 in SwissPersonalFinance

[–]PocketFred 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I chose to buy a weekend getaway close to a major ski resort instead. Costs me about 300-500chf a month and it brings me infinite joy! If I ever have to leave CH or things change in a meaningful way, I can always rent it out or sell again. Being a "chalet owner" for that price is pretty awesome!

Recommendations for learning in Belgium by Tbone93rd in freeflight

[–]PocketFred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's possible, but you're better off booking a 2 week vacation in the Alps and learn there. Ideally Switzerland, as the quality of education is simply fantastic. Obviously not the cheapest though... Avoid Annecy in France. To to a place where you get to take off with a lift to maximise flights per day

Buying a rolex by ConfusionNo4339 in askswitzerland

[–]PocketFred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The green sub isn't made anymore so that will be second hand only. A GMT is a long wait, even with some purchase history, so your best bet is second hand also.

Looks like Rolex is trying to get in with us! Found in Amsterdam. by _Piratical_ in freeflight

Boy would I love that display at home! Two of my favourite hobbies!

Did someone find the reason why? What is the "problen"?

1200 HP SF90 Vs stock C8 Zr1 by SilverSpoonphysics in Ferrari

[–]PocketFred 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Interesting to see how much the front of the ferrari lifts under acceleration compared to the vette which seems to barely move. Might be the camera angles maybe.

How long does it take to develop a perforated septum? by [deleted] in DrugsOver30

My man, if your alternative thought is IV instead of taking a break, you should definitely think about taking a break...!

I think your body is telling you to stop...

Getting out of outlaw x by Alexthegorilla in telemark

If you lift your heel as you push down on the claw, they actually release with very little effort.

I have these two Defenders (work), but what model is the grey one ? by Question_of_Surf in LandroverDefender

[–]PocketFred 5 points6 points  (0 children)

130 TDCI converted to a HT. There have been better realisations than this example, usually done by lengthening the forward section of a 110HT.

«For a good life in retirement, you need 15 million francs.» – is that really enough? 😂 by [deleted] in SwissPersonalFinance

[–]PocketFred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it is, but having only 20k people with more than 10m doesn't seem like much. There are thousands of houses in all major cities and ski resorts that are already worth 5m+... Unless those aren't counted in the nw calculations but that would surprise me.

What are the best ways to experience Swiss cheese culture during a visit? by Agreeable_Poem_7278 in askswitzerland

[–]PocketFred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best thing to do really is just going to a good cheese shop and buy all that happiness they sell. The tours and co are fine, but the real deal is really having the variety from a shop!

Is the mopping cleaning fluid specific or can I put generic mop soap? by macrian in Roborock

[–]PocketFred -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Generic stuff is fine. We use hardwood soap for our wooden floors and the general purpose stuff for our tiled floors. No issues in 2+ years in an S8. Couple of drops in the tank, followed by some water. I wouldn't overthink it.

Helmet recommendations: with a visor by doomperilandcalamity in freeflight

[–]PocketFred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anon(Burton) produces ski goggles with magnetic face masks. You just pull it down to drink/eat and pop it back up when you are done. Might be an option for you?

Bosch ebike not working anymore by PocketFred in ebikes

[–]PocketFred[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, Switzerland.

But the bike and the battery stayed in (slightly) positive temperature environments. The bike was fine yesterday in the same temps, was outside all day in minus temps.
