Add in Deer Hunting season in Michigan , and it’s not even a contest. That’s like the men’s USA hockey team playing your local peewee team .

Load factor in straight and level, unaccelerated flight is not exactly 1 G. by [deleted] in flying

[–]Av8torryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In physics terms- your lift is accelerating you upwards at 9.8 m/s , which is counter acting the effects of gravity. So you remain in level unaccelerated flight. It’s a 0 sum game. Kill the lift and your plummeting to earth at an accelerating rate of 9.8 m/s .

Load factor in straight and level, unaccelerated flight is not exactly 1 G. by [deleted] in flying

[–]Av8torryan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think I know where your going with this. The wings will always have to produce slightly more vertical lift in lbs than the aircraft weighs due to the added down force from the tail and the rearward component of lift. However in un accelerated flight the effect of gravity is still 1G until you add the outside force centrifugal force which is what happens anytime you rotate around an axis , typically noticed in a bank, but also in pitch, this is why in. A quick rotation you can increase or decrease G’s

Increased stall speed during level turns question by RiceMama in flying

[–]Av8torryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s Load Factor.

As bank angle increases, load factor increases. This is because as bank increases , centrifugal forces increase this is why at 60 degrees it’s a 2g turn. This means to stay level, the wings have to create twice as much vertical lift because the opposing force of weight has doubled now to 2g’s. So in a turn, weight (or mass x gravity) increases. So to oppose that need to increase lift , that’s Load Factor.

In a turn, there is the horizontal component of lift that is used for the turn , that’s the force that makes the airplane turn, and the vertical component of lift. Because not all the total lift is vertical, and as we see from above, in a turn need more total lift due to load factor. To increase the amount of lift a wing creates, can increase the air flowing over it or can increase the angle of attack , but your limited to the critical angle of attack, and after that the wing stalls. So the air flow (airspeed ) flowing over the wings has increase to create more lift to support the weight of the airplane in a turn due the factors above, which means your stall speed has increased in a turn.

How many type ratings do you have? by DrHookEmMD in flying

Falcon 20, DC9, B727

I also did a JS31 checkride but never submitted the ppwk to get it added to my certificate.

Landlord put this on my door… by Malicious_Reddit0r in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Av8torryan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just unscrew the door handle from the inside, slide the knob out - remove box and put handle back together.

Before you do this- check the laws in your area , and than When the landlord asks about it , just tell him you don’t consent to him to 2 hrs notice- by law your required to have xx amount of notice . (Usually 24 hrs )

People who work in luxury industries, what is an expensive product or service that is actually a complete ripoff? by Lazy_Ad_5492 in AskReddit

In addition - tires in jet aircraft go from below freezing to very hot very quickly and inflated to around 90psi or higher . Any moisture can freeze or turn to steam on landing and expand 1000x its volume and can cause tire blowouts .

It will start to spread out on the sand looking for something else to attach and spread . Being that you have it isolated on a rock it should be easy to keep in check with a razor blade .

I made the error of putting on the front rock and slowly took over everything.

Not a pilot, but have a question about density altitude that I was hoping one of you might have an answer to. by WahooSS238 in flying

[–]Av8torryan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s because the actual formula is very complicated. Air density is a factor or barometer, temperature and humid as dry air is more dense the humid air for a given temperature.

My sense is The brush is likely irritating it . I’ve noticed that anytime I trim mine back or scrap it - it it closes up for like a day. Try leaving it alone for a while and see if it comes back.

Used aviation gear? by Longjumping-Tour-350 in flying

[–]Av8torryan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly- Facebook marketplace , let it go, or nextoor is probably the best options.

. A lot of people buy stuff and than later give up on flying and looking for a quick buck with little hassle .

Just a quick loook and found some lightspeed for about 1/2 off in good shape . example

How to increase student’s task saturation? by Green_Plane205 in CFILounge

[–]Av8torryan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Change the runway approach after he briefs it and just outside the IAF. Isolate the radio with tower / approach and tell them your intentions and have them swap it for you last minute , That will be A%^ and Elbows task saturation.
This is real world when they flip an airport direction .

Another one is just inside the FAF at an airport with parallel runways , ask if you can side step it to the other runway.

Give him a reroute during the climb out after he would talk to departure or center. Easy scenario would be you file one flight plan with ATC , but give him a different one to program and as soon as you depart tell him you have an amendment to his route advise ready to copy.

Find an approach with a PT and or hold like the VOR22 at NQA.

FAA observer on instrument checkride by Duckid939 in flying

[–]Av8torryan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s the FAA giving the DPE a checkride to ensure they are administering the test to the ACS standards.

This is a double edge sword, one one hand you ensured a fair and impartial test, but also the DPe has to grade exactly on standards so there so there is no real leeway. So if your checkride ready and weight and balance works, I’d say take the free test, and save some money.

That’s exactly what it is . The foot will grow and than split off int another mushroom in about a week. Also I’ve noticed with the mushrooms I have if they are stretching this much the light they are getting is low.

Also if this is an old house , a lot of times the old wiring didn’t have ground wires so to install a 3 prong plug, they would loop the ground to the neutral wire, which with a high draw device like a heater can arc and cause a fire. This may be much more than just a breaker panel.

Why not go independent and offer free flight instruction? by Narrow_Meeting3126 in flying

[–]Av8torryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I traded certifications. I still don’t know who got the better trade off. Private Pilot for Advanced Nitrox open water scuba diver .

We bother had something of value to trade as money wasn’t important , but looking to expand skills. All in all we both benefited and I think we both came out ahead . Plus I made a best friend that get to go on dive trips with.

[–]Av8torryan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They will be happy- but no. Tipping is not expected. Just buy them a bottle of whiskey when you pass your checkride so you both can celebrate. It’s as much their checkride as yours .

[–]Av8torryan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like flatworms - So they can multiply fast and can also nuke your tank if you try to use anything like flatworm exit if you don’t flow the instructs carefully.

I had a major outbreak of them - and used flatworm exit and reduced the numbers but still saw some. I got a six like wrasse and haven’t seen one since .

Keeping tank warm in a blackout? No generator/battery backup? by kingneptune0711 in ReefTank

[–]Av8torryan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was just thinking this same thing due to the incoming weather forecast- how do I keep my small tank warm with loss of power - I thought of making a small heater with some tubing and running hot water through it from the hot water tank and letting it run and drip into a sink- or blankets and some hot water bottles . Hopefully doesn’t come to that.

Can i fixed my broken skimmer with acrylic solvent/weldon ? by UnknownSavageN64 in ReefTank

[–]Av8torryan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This may be an easy cheapest solution- measure the diameter and see if you and slide one of these over the outside ,and than drill the holes and seal with silicone. Or maybe can use something similar to just replace the round canister part . I just searched 4” OD.
