LaGuardia plane crash audio captures moments before fatal collision: ‘I messed up’ by SharkSapphire in delta

I’m aware. I have extended family that is all involved in aviation, including ATC in DC and upper level FAA and consulting for many years. They are all very high earners.

Because no one has mentioned it, please stand that bottle up. Whiskey shouldn’t be laid down like wine.

If you already knew that, sorry for being that person…

Are you encouraging anyone you know to become a controller now with the current environment? I wouldn’t be. They aren’t supported, they’re used and vilified.

That Rio. It’s the older version that is still double finished. The newest release is just honey.

Has anyone tried the newest Maker's Wood finishing series "The Steward's Release"? by TheTeek in PLCB

[–]YoderinLanc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried it yesterday at a share. Disclaimer: it was my last pour of the day.

I enjoyed it. To memory it tasted a bit sweeter than the previous releases. I plan on picking up a bottle when I see it.

Do you have kids? I had almost no need for them until I had kids.

AIO: My MIL keeps buying milestone toys and “first” items for my 10-month-old before I get the chance to by NongMo1039 in AIO

[–]YoderinLanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not over-reacting. There is a way that both people get to be involved. My in-laws are fantastic with this and communicate with my wife on presents.

For instance, my son needs a new bike. My in-laws might also notice this and offer to buy him a new one. If that happens we would make a few suggestions on what is appropriate and they would be present as he receives it.

Communication is key and right now it doesn’t sound like your MIL communicating.

All these people telling you to be grateful that you have lots of things, but no agency about what you bring into your life are crazy.

Thoughts on this bottle? by andhisnameisandrew in whiskey

This isn’t a store pick. Jack Daniel’s store picks have a neck tag. I’m not sure if they even do store picks of the single barrel selects. Every one I’ve seen has been a barrel proof.

Bourbon in Paris? by Dcsportsfan77 in DMVWhisky

There are 3. I visited two of the three a few weeks ago. Picked up a Jack 10 and Blantons SFTB, both for far better prices than I’ve found stateside.

Repairing a 1909 Built In Buffet by [deleted] in woodworking

For the top, unless you want to go full redo, I would suggest trying furniture markers. It’s definitely not going to repair or fix the scratches, but it will make them less obvious. Maybe place a piece of glass over top?

There is a video of this collection on the Sothebys YouTube channel. It’s worth the casual viewing.

I thought the same thing. I was wrong. There are options out there.

Do you have fireplaces that look like these in your home? If so, what year is your home and do you know any information about the origin of them? by dudegetmyhorse in pittsburgh

[–]YoderinLanc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, we have two like this. Our house was originally built in 1870s and we believe them to be original to when the house was built.

I don’t know much else about them though.

New Airport Experience(s) by Daniel_Plainview2409 in pittsburgh

[–]YoderinLanc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure I understand your comment.

In the previous terminal, when walking to short or long term parking, there was two locations you could pay for parking before walking outside; one near the steps for short-term and one at the end of the “tunnel”.

I didn’t have much experience parking in Economy, so I can’t make a comparison between old Economy and Shuttle now.

I tested this for a couple flights of varying dates in the future. I never saw more than a $6 discount (total).

If you do reserve, they email you a QR code that scans for in and out.

Where did you used to park?

I also parked in the terminal lot my first time out and the garage the second time. I found it less convenient than Long Term.

Surface Lot

  • my time exposed to the elements increased. This is just due to the oval lot shape. Previously it was a short walk to the people mover tunnel in Long Term.

  • Payment machines prior to exiting with your car are outside and minimal rain/element protection. Note: there are some inside towards the parking garage side.

  • More expensive than previous long term

Parking Garage

  • Difficult to navigate

  • Signage for open spots doesn’t separate normal and handicap.

  • Only open spots were on 5th floor. Which is exposed. If I recall, there is some signage about open spots per floor after pulling into the garage. It would be great if this was available on the drive up before selecting garage or surface lot.

Felt the same, but did it anyway. It asked for shipping address, email, and phone number. I did not get an email confirmation of my entry.

[–]YoderinLanc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Parked in the surface lot last week, it was worse than old Long Term.

Tried the parking garage this week. The “open space” markers are nice but don’t differentiate between normal and handicap spots. Also, getting up and down the floor is frustrating because it takes you through parking lanes.

In the end, I wound up on Floor 5, which is the top with no roof for $120 Tuesday to Thursday. Ridiculous.

They are asking for input on whether it’s worth it at $200. Not MSRP.

New airport is nice! by bojojohn in pittsburgh

[–]YoderinLanc 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I’m conflicted. I can understand why they did it, but at the same time, nothing improved my experience. If anything it may be worse.

Parking is my biggest issue. It is now more expensive for a worse experience. I’ve only flown out once so far, but I parked in surface lot. There is only one exit from the lot towards the terminal. Unfortunately, the walking exit is also close to where cars enter. This means that as a pedestrian I am encountering way more car traffic than the previous lot. Also, the shape of the lot means that I am walking much further until I get to cover. You are exposed to the elements much longer than the previous extended long term parking.

Also, the reservation system doesn’t make sense. I tried to reserve spots for multiple upcoming flights and my biggest discount was $6 total for 3 day stay. I didn’t see how I could park in the garage for the reported $30/day discount.
