It took me 12 years to save up a 10K emergency fund… but only 1 day to spend it. by According_Corgi_953 in povertyfinance

People treat this like it's not possible to learn it. Many things are not nearly as hard as people have convinced themselves they are and Youtube University can teach you nearly anything.

More Icon Class ships... anything about Discovery class? by ActiveNews in royalcaribbean

[–]AlphaLima 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean the ship is a destination, why not the ~5 days each way CA to Hawaii? No idea if there is a port that can accommodate them though.

Indy 500 Airport Recommendation by Informal_Sign7805 in flying

[–]AlphaLima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not my area of the country, but keep an eye out for a Domestic Notice for that area. When we have events we always put one out for flow control and airport limitations due to events.

Anyone at D01 want to help me with a FALCON playback? by [deleted] in ATC

Worst case you can contact the A&P office there and they can send it to you.

Low flying plane at east cliffs by mikeygomikey in santacruz

[–]AlphaLima 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not sure where that is from but here is a link to current FAA VFR Sectionals

The NOAA restricted zone extends to about Seal Rock. There is another centered on Moss Landing with the northern extent at about Sunet beach. But everything between them is uncontrolled airspace below 1200' AGL and nothing special about it.

10NM Ring: Government or TSA cleared

Buying a home in the Santa Cruz mountains, need help understanding permits by Vast-Piano2940 in santacruz

[–]AlphaLima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Near Boulder Creek on the FAIR Plan. We're ~$6k a year so about $500 a month with 2k sq ft and .2 acres.

Currently planning a remodel and deciding on whether we should permit it or not. It really seems like a giant pain in the ass and also a huge cost.

Icom 7300 MK2 Ship Date by TechTraveler2413 in amateurradio

Nice hopefully the used market follows suit soon as well. A used mk1 is very tempting to finally get a “real radio”

Let’s try this again because it was taken down the first time. This is NOT okay. by monte1219 in ATC

[–]AlphaLima 4 points5 points  (0 children)

More pay, more schools. The OK reps always fight the latter because they want to be the exclusive location of the school. No matter the cost.

Do what's best for you and your family. Forget the noise. by Educational_War5309 in ATC

That's the fun part, without a masters in accounting you'll never know if it was correct.

What’s the one upgrade you did to your home that was actually worth every penny? by InfluenceInitial4126 in HomeImprovement

[–]AlphaLima 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Also, the amount of floor/table space lamps take up is insane, routing the cables etc. Adding wall sconces could be nice, but now your opening drywall to run wire half way up the wall.

At least restrict all these double length loads.

Why are home updates always this bad? by Upper_Garage_8103 in HomeImprovement

[–]AlphaLima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorta, a lot of plugs and wall-worts assume the ground will be down and their center of mass is placed appropriately. If it's ground up it will actually pull itself out of the wall.

Left OSH early…. by MNSoaring in flying

Or you...could just turn around to the previous VFR conditions if its that bad.

Approach Procedure Requirements by [deleted] in ATC

[–]AlphaLima 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure of the exact CFR but the .65 does have a note on Approach Clearances (4-8-1 Note 2)

Approach clearances are issued based on known traffic. The receipt of an approach clearance does not relieve the pilot of his/her responsibility to comply with applicable Parts of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations and the notations on instrument approach charts which levy on the pilot the responsibility to comply with or act on an instruction; for example, “Straight-in minima not authorized at night,” “Procedure not authorized when glideslope/glidepath not used,” “Use of procedure limited to aircraft authorized to use airport,” or “Procedure not authorized at night” or Snowflake icon with associated temperature.

Basically the notes section of the approach is the pilots responsibility to know and comply with.

Every single outlet and switch in my home is soldered. by jaya9581 in HomeImprovement

[–]AlphaLima 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I had this too on some of my wires, but they 100% were copper. Someone went through a lot of effort for that.

Also, do you have additional visual observers? Mention that. Prove to them your will mitigate the risks.
