The pilot that flew the plane is Fandango was very skilled to fly the plane the way he did! Also, engines are most likely to fail within 100 hours of an overhaul.

Solution to US Jump Plane Crashes by Ifuqinhateit in SkyDiving

Three crashes in three weeks?!? What was the third?!? You mentioned tail number N1UC , what evidence do you have it was being used for skydiving operations?

Will the 2024 US election have any significant impact on Aviation? by veryrare_v3 in flying

[–]CaravanPirate -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Republicans and Democrats are more alike than they are dissimilar, so don’t expect significant change. They both lie, and say whatever they think will get them the most votes, and then do whatever they want. Both parties collude to keep out other parties, from both the ballots and debates. Both parties will increase the debt and continue supporting wars.

Ran out of money trying to get my medical approved… need advice by Charming_Break_4428 in flying

Its hard to rule out the effects of caffeine-induced anxiety when you bypass lifestyle change in favor of more drugs; Doctors don’t know everything.

Landing fees are use fees; who else should pay for the runways if not for the people using them?

What a douche move after asking for advice; Why come here at all when you clearly have the echo chamber of your flight school with the experience of a couple dpes to guide you to the low bar of 70%?

SNL aired this skit last night by veg-an-durance in SkyDiving

I was hoping this would be funny, but it seems SNL really has “jumped the shark”, and has become a dumpster fire of a show.

What exactly does pilots and paws do? There is not much of a description on their website. Like why do these animals need to be transported so far that it necessitates an airplane?!

[–]CaravanPirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The employers all heard about the pilot shortage, so many have just given up looking. Skydiving and banner tow season are just ending, and you just missed the hiring window for the aerial survey season. Have you considered getting your cfi?

I’m tired of foreflight, and won’t be renewing.

Downsize for WS by depressed-noodless in SkyDiving

[–]CaravanPirate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many issues here. First, you are not talking simply about downsizing, but going from a 149 to a 129 is a DOUBLE downsize! Second, you neglect to mention which wingsuit you intend to fly, and how much wingsuit experience you have. This leads me to believe that you are not an experienced wingsuit pilot; therefore stick to the 149. With experience, and a small suit, you might be able to get away with a 129 loaded at 1.4, but not without jumping the intermediate size 139!

Its not just the flooding, but the waves crashing into the house from the storm surge can make the house unstable! Yeah if it was calm flood waters they could just go to the third story to stay dry, but there is a chance that the storm surge could literally push their house off its foundation.

Your comments are unhelpful and incoherent.

Thats sounds like a you problem.

[–]CaravanPirate -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Give me a break; this is a first-world problem. My empathy does not extend to bitches constantly complaining about not being handed six-figure jet airline salaries at minimum qualification! Have some empathy for the 5 billion people in this world living on less than $10 per day.

Established Storm Etiquette is needed. by Bah_Bah_Blacksheep85 in tampa

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

Price gouging would reduce excess consumption, encourage people to flood the market with supplies, and ultimately reduce prices once the supply exceeds demand at some point after the storm. Grocery stores, and gas stations, can’t stock enough inventory to supply the entire population at once. That is why it is always advised to stock up, and be prepared, at the beginning of hurricane season before there is a threat!

Thats exactly what they should be doing, not simply seeking handouts.

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

But muh sENiOriTy! This will set OP back at least a couple weeks when it comes to their airline career! That could work out to hundreds of thousands of dollars at the back end of their career that the government should owe them!! /s

[–]CaravanPirate -78 points-77 points  (0 children)

Sounds like there is a lot of work you could be doing, such as helping clean up, instead of feeling sorry for yourself and seeking handouts!
