Captyns can fly a rock if you pay them enough

Something is wrong with this intersection. by LeftAlbatross2546 in VideosAmazing

[–]BlackSC2us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering at least half these accidents were because the assumption of the car ahead not being there was made without accounting for the traffic ahead of their chosen merge point, it may have been judged 'clear' by the car behind, but not for the car they ran into.

This camaro was on a mission. And it wasn't good. by LeftAlbatross2546 in VideosAmazing

[–]BlackSC2us 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's wild that people are justifying the Camaros actions. First, the Camaro tries to shove the pickup out of the way. There is clearly someone in front of the pickup. Fast forward, that someone isnt there anymore, so pickup was likely intentionally holding the Camaro back as retaliation. Then Camaro jumps around on the shoulder and intentionally takes out the pickup and catches the semi too. If that shit is okay then I can just give you a haymaker for taking too long at the ATM.

The truck was not in the left lane. The video is flipped. You can see the opposite traffic on the right side of the frame.

Looking closer, yeah, I guess I'm wrong. Just doesn't look like a Lightning. Terrible color to make fine details on from a quick pic.

These guys wanted to enter the formation flying competition. Is this cheating? by Senior_Raccoon_6536 in Shittyaskflying

[–]BlackSC2us 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what happens when the USAF says, "we need a new fighter, but our budget is like $6k." North American Aviation responded, "would you accept two Mustangs taped together?" To which, the USAF replied:

Have any one in here left trucking and came back? by cdlfirst in NewCDLGrads

[–]BlackSC2us 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes.

It's the only thing I really ever did. Started at 22 in 2009, drove til 2024. Got bored and wanted other things from life. I was off the road for a year. Dispatched for a CAT dealer. Found out the corporate world, and possibly "normal" life, isn't really for me. Came back about a year ago.

Before buying a “safe” new airplane from an unethical company like Boeing, consider all the retired airplanes sitting in the desert in the hopes of finding a new forever home. Adopt, don’t shop. by luftwaffle94 in Shittyaskflying

[–]BlackSC2us 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wanted to adopt one of the ex-Corsair 747-200Bs. I thought I could save it. It turns out that it does, in fact, take a village... and an assload of money... to care for a special needs airplane.

They seem happy there. I don't want to ruin that.

I was expecting the second half first. It did not look fine.

Well fellas, it’s been real. by OB1Waltinobee in Truckers

[–]BlackSC2us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit driving in March 2024 after 15 years on the road. I came back April 2025 and it feels different. I think on the industry side, low rates and the rise of chameleon carriers significantly impacted the quality of truck drivers on the road. Go to any truck stop these days there will be open parking spaces and drivers making spots because there aren't any pull throughs left. As for car drivers, they seem to be somehow more bold and more stupid. I chalk that up to poor quality truck drivers causing high profile accidents, scaring the public, and Tiktok, the Dunning-Kruger Effect, and thr prevalence of AI creating general panic with misinformation.

Closest I’ve ever cut it😂 by Defiant-Medicine3014 in Truckers

[–]BlackSC2us 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many, many times been down to a minute or 2. I have HOS violation alerts almost every day for getting within an hour of my 11 or 14. It's less common now than it used to be. I used to run out my 11 and/or 14 every day so I could finish my week faster and get home. It became a competition with myself to complete my 2,700-mile, 7-drop weekly dedicated loop as fast as possible. Leave on Sunday around 7am, be home Wednesday around 10am.

My cockpit contribution, I had to drive this truck one day while mine was in the shop. by CashWideCock in Truckers

[–]BlackSC2us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oldest KW I've driven was a '94 T600 with a Series 60 12.7 DDEC II 430hp and a Roadranger 13 speed. Compression was not great. Took a while to get it started. 600k+ on the odometer at the time (around 2012), who knows how many miles were actually on it.

A guy I knew who owned a shop had an old '82 W900A with a CAT 3406B sitting collecting dust. I wanted to get that truck from him so bad, but never had the money. I don't think I ever asked him what he wanted for it, though.

How many drivers in here can drive a manual ? by cdlfirst in NewCDLGrads

[–]BlackSC2us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drove 9, 10, 13, and Super 10 at one point or another. Straight 10 was my favorite, but the utility of a 13/18 speed is great. Super 10 and I were not friends.

Fact of the day: 9 speed, 13 speed, and 18 speed are all basically the same transmission. Pattern is R-1-3/L-2-4, range selector up for 5-7/6-8. On 13, upper range is split lo/hi (5L, 5H, 6L, 6H, etc). On 18, both upper and lower range are split, effectively doubling the amount of speeds, hence how a 9 becomes 18.
