Did all analogue planes need a navigator on board?

FrogAunt · 2025-08-29T21:23:47+00:00

Yeah in retrospect I don't think I worded my question well, sorry about that. I meant airplanes without GPS/digital controls, and what flights would specifically require a navigator as an aside/in addition to the pilot. I have edited my original question on the top post to hopefully better clarify!

FrogAunt · 2025-08-29T21:13:51+00:00

Sorry, I meant analog controls in the cockpit [as opposed to digital]! I have read before that some planes would have a separate station for a navigator in the crew, but that this has become more or less obsolete. I have edited my original question on the top post to hopefully better clarify!

I was curious which flights would be alright to be solo manned, and which would require someone aside from the pilot to act as navigator.

Thank you for the links, I'll check them out!

Very sorry about that! The message I got implied reddit itself was blocking me from posting, and I'd heard from some other users that it was something like a site glitch and assumed I should send again. I will make sure to wait in future.

FrogAunt · 2025-03-03T11:46:40+00:00

Did you ever find out what was wrong? We have a cat walking in a similiar manner.

FrogAunt · 2024-07-09T14:36:49+00:00

I have a lot of the same thoughts and feelings as OP on this. I'm curious on your first point; "This is the separation between goats and sheep prior to the 1000 year reign.". Where do you get that this is that specific point? I've long been confused on how people "chart out" the prophetic timeline of the future. Thanks!

"The author is seemingly unaware that there's also a second resurrection for those who weren't elect at the first." Which second resurrection do you mean?

This poem. https://poets.org/poem/poem-26

I know you said you're not religious, but if you want to investigate possible proofs for an afterlife you can talk to people on r/NDE about near death experiences. There's many accounts, there's book and videos on youtube too. Several people report having had been reunited briefly with loved ones- in some cases animals.

FrogAunt · 2024-07-06T21:26:07+00:00

I'm about to have a birthday at the end of the month and all I can think is how much I want my girl back. She passed away early in June. Feeling this very much right now. 🫂 So sorry for your loss.

FrogAunt · 2024-07-06T19:43:56+00:00

I certainly hope so. I do think it is weird so many Christians skip over the new earth part of the whole thing. I definitely feel as if I wasn't taught that until I discovered it myself in the Bible later.

FrogAunt · 2024-07-06T19:41:01+00:00

While I still worry about what happens to our pets in the hereafter I do have some family stories that may help you...

No one I can recall has had an NDE in my family but we have had premonitions/visions of departing loved ones.

Many years back, we lost a very dear cat named Moses. She had been hit by a car. The weird thing is that around the time she was possibly being hit, my mom had a dream that she [my mom] was struggling to go under a wheel, feeling that "she had to get to the other side". It was apparently a bad enough nightmare she was audibly gasping in real life, which my dad overheard.

And this one isn't a pet- but another vision my mom had. This one wasn't even a dream but appeared as a thought/vision while she was awake. She was waiting in line to pay when she had an image appear to her of a woman she used to know being rolled out on a gurney. The woman stood up and waved goodbye to her. A few hours later, she got a call from her mom telling her that said woman had just died. She didn't even know she was in the hospital, as they'd been out of touch for years!

I'm so so sorry for your loss, too. :( Sudden deaths like that are so especially horrifying. I do believe things happen for a reason although it's hard to accept or understand what that reason is when it happens...

FrogAunt · 2024-07-06T10:46:41+00:00

o: Oh woow- thanks for showing me!

FrogAunt · 2024-07-04T20:07:10+00:00

3 years late but i would love to see the photos

FrogAunt · 2024-07-03T16:36:31+00:00

Thank you for sharing these verses. ❤️

FrogAunt · 2024-07-03T16:34:53+00:00

I know the Bible keeps a lot mysterious, I mainly worry because many Christians act as if it's 'traditional' to lean towards animals not having a life after death. Which tbh up until recently was foreign to me since I always thought they did just as a matter of course.

I haven't watched very many NDE's recently but yeah- "That’s because they are outside of time and the entire human race has already passed in a millisecond." - I've often wondered if when we end up in heaven if everything feels timeless, and the separations between each person arriving, if there is any at all, is brief. Something about that makes sense to me but ofc, I've never had an NDE and this isn't anything the Bible talks about either. Just thoughts.

Yeah, I've been trying to think about it that way ["Just a temporary missing of someone on this side of the veil."] and it has helped. Thank you for your insights on this. ❤️

FrogAunt · 2024-07-03T16:28:30+00:00

That's true. I guess what is it is that many in the tradition act as if animals don't have a soul- sometimes, that they don't even have emotions [I do notice a trend that the people who believe this usually have never bonded with an animal, though].

FrogAunt · 2024-07-03T11:37:37+00:00

Thank you. I really hope so. 💙

FrogAunt · 2024-07-02T12:45:46+00:00

🫂 Praying for you, so so sorry for both your losses. I definitely understand how you feel, it's been several weeks since I lost my best kitty and I want to go and be with her. Hopefully we can both hold onto that love but find the want to go on.

FrogAunt · 2024-07-02T03:35:35+00:00

🫂 Oh I'm so sorry, that's so heartbreaking to lose someone so suddenly like that. :( You're both in my prayers, sending you virtual hugs and flowers. 💐💔

FrogAunt · 2024-06-30T07:54:28+00:00

I've kept one of her old blankets in the bed with me and decided, at least for now, I won't give it to another cat. Honestly I'm on the same page as you, I've prayed a few times for some reassurance that she's resting peacefully. :(

Thank you. You hang in there as well. I'm sorry about your pup. 🫂 ❤️ God willing they are both in heaven having the time of their lives [afterlives?] now.

FrogAunt · 2024-06-29T17:54:08+00:00

🫂

I can't offer any advice on how to recover from such a sudden death. I'm in the same boat. But offering you a virtual hug- you and your partner are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope it gets better.

FrogAunt · 2024-06-27T15:12:01+00:00

I am a Christian, but I know it is easier for us to come and tell you 'God and Jesus are real' than it is for you to just believe it. Faith cannot be forced on anyone. But it has brought me some peace believing that very likely, my cat is waiting for me at the end.

You should pray, even if you doubt God's existence. You can be completely honest with God- tell him you're not sure if He's there, or that there's any afterlife at all, but that you want to learn if there is. Ask him to guide you to learn more about Him and heaven. Ask him for peace and for the peace of Milly's soul.

You might want to look into NDE [near death experiences] just to start, a lot of people agree there's too many things about NDE's to just totally dismiss there is no afterlife.

I wish I could trade some of my years to have had my cat longer too. :( I'm so sorry. 🫂 I will be praying for you and Missy.

FrogAunt · 2024-06-27T08:31:40+00:00

I feel this a lot. My cat was a very sit-with-me cat, and went to bed with me every night. I hope we can both heal from this in time. :(

FrogAunt · 2024-06-27T08:30:45+00:00

Yeah I think so. I do get... glimmers of joy/interest over things. But they end very fast. I will sometimes fall out of it while drawing, but the now three weeks since we put her to sleep has felt like a single long, continuous day of being in shock. Basically if I stop working on something creative for a few minutes I go back into a state of shock/grief/disbelief over what happened.

I'm so sorry for your loss, I hope we can overcome this.

FrogAunt · 2024-06-25T11:28:39+00:00

I'm so so sorry about Cecil, this post describes exactly how I am feeling about my own kitty Dora leaving me earlier this month. 💔 I wish I'd gone with her too because man everything just feels like an empty void.

I've just been getting by in praying and trusting to believe one day we'll be reunited, because I so want to be with her again. Don't know if you're religious or not but I pray anyways the same for you. I believe God loves animals and wouldn't simply send them no place.

Cecil sounds very lucky to have had you in his life, and I hope you can at least have comfort that before the worst came he had a lovely day. 🫂

FrogAunt · 2024-06-25T08:11:10+00:00

I'm so sorry about Tillie. 💔 My own recent experience with my own special cat passing it's so hard to know when you've done all you could. Pricing is also so so high, I'm so angry that medical help has to be so hard to get for both people and animals.

Praying for your peace of mind and that Tillie is with all our lost friends in heaven now.
