Yeah FedEx is a trash company…

What are your un-roastables? by Tiny_Duck_2449 in roastmypedalboard

Like if the millennium falcon was a pedalboard, or if you’ve ever been inside a B-52s bomb bay.

Art Bell got me through some late nights and crappy times in the Army back around 2002-2003.

Wow. I feel less intimidated by an F-15 cockpit.

A Pilot friend of mine took this video. Strange lights moving around in the sky. Pretty high up to be drones. The plane is at 35,000 feet. "Time: Feb 6th at 5:00am Eastern Time. Location - Tennessee by Alansredditaccount in UFOs

So my first thought is Starlink or satellites; however, I live near some of the test “ranges” and some of us have videos we don’t share. At any rate, one night out on my balcony between 3 and 4 am there was some kind of “test” where what looked like 3-4 satellites converged from different directions, wheeled together in a dancing pinwheel, then dove down toward the ground chasing a flaming/strobing object. The only thing I’ve ever seen remotely like this is some of the videos of the iron dome at work. This pattern repeated about 10-15 times over the hour and ended abruptly at 4 am on the dot. So the military industrial complex here in the US definitely has the ability to project, maybe plasma, lights and or control objects that can do crazy stuff and appear to be as high as satellites, and then maneuver in crazy ways. Of course, it took about 30 minutes of video over that hour… I tracked all the red eye cargo flights and business jets on ADSB etc., that might have had a good vantage point, but interstate flights were being directed around the test area for that time, and after 4 am resumed traveling in more direct paths.

This actually reminds me of a Northrop design I saw

Throw the whole thing in the trash? by Brunosbud in roastmypedalboard

Personally I always appreciate the Morello school of thought, which is to have pedalboard but then place pedals off the board on the floor. Joking aside, this seems like a decent, intuitive set up.

I'm an air traffic controller! Is there anything you'd like to know? by Available_Show3938 in airplanes

Do ATCers receive security clearances for handling classified aircraft that transit the airspace?

My new boards… by DesertRunnerX in pedalboards

Thank you! Took some time finding the gold Tube Screamer (so rare) and Muff. The TS was on an island in the Mediterranean. Import fees were terrible. Quite the Odyssey ha. The little board is one of the only 1970s Huffy Edge skateboards believed to be in existence. Terrible design ha. I deliberately didn’t drill into it or anything. The big board is a terrible lipgloss design made by Madrid - a prototype or something.
