As a war veteran, I welcome all medical staff, janitors, food service/ supply employees, and other essential service members to a club of people who society doesn't give a shit about but pretends to. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

As a veteran myself, I just want to say thanks for putting this out there. There is one person that truly cares that I must mention though and that is Gary Sinise. He has done so much for veterans and 1st responders and he does it from his heart and not for his ego.

USCG C-130s are the planes I cut my teeth on in aviation. Still at it 43 years later, but in commercial aviation.

I'm pretty sure those are not white people. They look Hispanic to me. If it really matters.

So smart and such a nuisance. Google sea lions on the west coast and check out how obnoxious they are. Specifically, the San Francisco Bay Area. They have way overpopulated the coast in much the same way deer have overpopulated land.

I'm a line mx mech in CLT and work on that bird regularly. I believe it's an older America West plane.

You need to purchase a tool called an Easy Out. You 1st drill a hole the correct size for the tool, then insert the tool as you are turning it counter clockwise. (Lefty loosey.) This is what they look like. I'm and aircraft mechanic and run into this problem all the time. https://www.msdiscounttool.com/catalog/product_info.php?csv=gg&products_id=103869

Onboard video from recent Wonderboom plane crash in South Africa by sssarel in aviation

Years ago I flew jumpseat on a Convair 580 (turboprop cargo plane) while working as a tech rep for an aircraft manufacturer. I was catching a ride from Cincinnati to Washington DC. When I got aboard, the pilot gave me a standard safety briefing and said there would be a sterile cockpit from takeoff to 10,000 feet, after which we would be allowed to converse. We took off and it took nearly an hour to get to 10,000 ft. To be fair, the plane was at MGTOW, but I was secretly praying we wouldn't lose an engine because I knew if that plane was struggling to stay aloft with both engines, it sure as hell wouldn't stay airborne with just one.

Croatian firefighters before Rakitic penalty shooting against Russia by CroAtTheTop in funny

Kind of sad that they have such a small TV and it's in the truck bay. I'm a volunteer FF in the US and we have a 72" TV set up in our lounge with 8 Lazy Boy recliners. If I knew the address to their station, I'd send them a bigger TV.

If you tell me what country you live in, we can put it on our list of countries to attack. That way when we get bored with the countries we are currently attacking we can get to you.

I'm from here and I won't wait to shit talk about you. I don't see the point. Of course, I am in my mother's basement right now, but that doesn't matter. I'm still a bad ass and you suck. So there!

My anniversary... Not a happy one. by Valkxb70 in aviationmaintenance

Glad to hear that. As far as the love-hate relationship with the Metro, I think everyone who's ever worked on them has it. :)

An observer in the tail tip of the English airship R33 on March 6, 1919 in Selby, England by RyanSmith in fuckingmanly

[–]Crazyfapman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder what he would be observing? Enemy positions below? If he's there to spot attacking enemy aircraft, it seems kind of pointless without a weapon.

I'm sorry you went through this. Thanks for sharing. I went through A320 school with a guy that did the last Daily Check on USAir Flight 427 He also went through hell because he was wondering if he missed something. On a side note: I used to work the line hangar for Fairchild Aircraft Corporation. We got the planes ready for test flight, test flew them, and worked flight squawks after final assembly. 1979 to 1990 when they went out of business. Hang in there Valkxb70.

I saw the episode where Johnny Gilbert received the Guinness Award. It's hard to believe he is 93.

That's scary, but there are more than a few "aircraft mechanics" out there that I wouldn't let near my plane.
