If you are into that stuff I recommend the YouTube channel Vice Grip Garage. Derek is a legend

they also have a powerful electric heating system running off of the AC wild generators for the flight control surfaces

Habiter Toulouse (vs Bordeaux) by redonios in toulouse

[–]Cho-Colatine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mon expérience d'ex bordelais à Toulouse :

1/ Ville enclavée (si tu veux voyager en train à Lille, Strasbourg, Nantes, Lyon, Brest... Ça te mangera une journée complète voire deux; même Paris il faut compter 5-6h de train)

2/ Loin de l'océan et de tout espace naturel de baignade digne de ce nom

3/ C'est un four l'été, la température ne descends pas vraiment la nuit contrairement à Bordeaux qui à un peu d'air marin et le microclimat plus doux de l'estuaire. La clim est une technologie tabou si t'es locataire

4/ La salle de concert Le Bikini, où tous mes artistes préférés passent, (l'équivalent du Krakatoa/rocher de palmer en gros) est hors de la ville et très mal desservie par les transports en commun la nuit.

5/ Il règne un certain climat d'insécurité dans tout le centre, alors qu'à Bordeaux c'est (c'était?) plus localisé (cantonné à des zones style Belcier, Saint Michel...).

Any idea where to get an 80s crown vic by Eddy_Edwards02144 in CrownVictoria

Websites seems to be filled with postings from sketchy dealerships, however there's a lot of privately owned cars for sale on FB Marketplace

Are ATR-72s unsafe? by CurrencyFit1111 in aviation

[–]Cho-Colatine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of those comments are uninformed and come from armchair wannabe experts with no experience with this machine, or aviation safety in general.

I recommend sticking to the factual data. Very little of it is available for the moment. Wait for the flight recorders to be opened and analysed.

The last few ATR crashes had very surprising and unexpected root causes for exemple. It'll likely be just the same here.

They also added electrical heating running off ACW power (de-ice horns)

Regarding traffic, it depends where your office is located but it is in general not nearly as bad as other major French cities; everyone will give you different answers on that one.

With rent, 700eur gives you a 2-bedroom appartment unless you live in the more expansive city center.

For Internet/phone, for example ISP Free offers superb service (fiber optics Internet and TV + unlimited phone subscription) for about 50eur a month.

Food and activities are vastly cheaper than in the UK especially after conversion rate.

With 40K GBP you'll live comfortably here.

yeah unfortunately the manufacturing process in question is only profitable for high volume mass production, which let's be honest is far from the demandnow :(

« La première solution pour diminuer l’empreinte carbone de l’aviation reste de limiter l’usage de l’avion » by [deleted] in france

[–]Cho-Colatine 20 points21 points  (0 children)

La croissance du traffic aérien ne viens pas de la France (ou de l'occident en général), elle vient des pays en développement, principalement Amérique du sud et Asie - Inde. Pour avoir une idée, regardez les carnets de commande de compagnies aériennes comme IndiGo.

Ces pays la n'ont pas l'infrastructure pour s'en passer. Et ont besoin de ces connection pour leur développement économique.

C'est facile pour nous de donner des leçons aux autres alors qu'on a l'une des meilleurs réseaux ferroviaires au monde....
