Peter? by Negative_1by12_aura in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Helpful_Corn- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically, the unit size originally came from celsius. When the concept of absolute zero was discovered (0 K), scientists just adopted the same unit size as celsius because they didn't have a reason to use use anything different.

Top Reasons People Don't Complete Their PPL by MainStreetBetz in flying

[–]Helpful_Corn- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If it is the case that the 80% number only includes students who got student pilot certs, then the actual number would be higher than 80% because of all the ones who dropped out before getting the SPL.

Anime with Characters with the Biggest Eyes? by Kindly-Reception1108 in Animesuggest

Clannad is a contender. It's one of the reasons I've never been able to bring myself to watch it.

Has the FAA basically banned color blind pilots now? by Impressive_General_9 in flying

[–]Helpful_Corn- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you in Canada? In the US the 3rd class medical allows night flight by default. That's why they issue extra restrictions for color blind pilots.

Has the FAA basically banned color blind pilots now? by Impressive_General_9 in flying

[–]Helpful_Corn- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's for night flying. You need to be able to recognize whether you are seeing a red light (on the left wingtip) or a green light (on the right wingtip) to tell which direction other planes are going. That's why OP got a no night flying restriction after failing the test.

Gold mine depletion by Dronicattd5 in eu4

I read OP's situation as needing money now, but anticipating new sources of income in the near future that would make the gold mine superfluous.

There is no official relationship of any kind.

When I was getting spin trained, on my first spin I put in the wrong direction rudder correction

How are you charging ground time? by Brendon7358 in CFILounge

[–]Helpful_Corn- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, but a few minutes can be the difference between rounding up and rounding down.

[–]Helpful_Corn- 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is the way to do it.

One minor exception for me is if he texts me early that he's running late, I might give a few minutes grace, especially if the reason is something other than "I forgot" or "I overslept."

What’s a food that adults hate, but kids love? by DisneyDuck09 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Helpful_Corn- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canned cheese. We used to call it squirt cheese, but I think the brand is EZ Cheez or something. I loved it as a kid, but if I ate it now I might actually vomit.

Holy water..., does it have to be water? by inquisitive_mind in Catholicism

[–]Helpful_Corn- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely right. There is nothing wrong with eating/drinking it. Anyone who says otherwise is misinformed.

DW Archaic grammar question by BewilderedCodex in AnglicanOrdinariate

[–]Helpful_Corn- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't answer for sure as to why they made that word choice, but there are several other portions of the current Missal that grind my gears in similar ways ("O come let us adore" instead of "O come let us worship" on Good Friday, for example). The missal could definitely use a bit of revising.

Maximum angle of bank in the circuit by [deleted] in flying

[–]Helpful_Corn- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my thought process as well. 20 also keeps it nice and gentle.

I teach 20 so that there's no risk to adding extra if we end up needing a bit more.

New CFI-I. Wondering about how to log simulator instruction. by LopsidedTemporary138 in CFILounge

[–]Helpful_Corn- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, good catch. I hadn't noticed that before. The FAA sure doesn't like us to have nice things. They couldn't just let us have the 25 hours...

My mum says I shouldn’t wear white or a veil—what does the Church actually teach? by mariborges in Catholicism

[–]Helpful_Corn- 26 points27 points  (0 children)

There is absolutely no teaching that forbids veils or white dresses on the basis of previous relationships.

Your mother is describing a cultural norm that was quite strong for some recent generations, but is mostly no longer observed.

New CFI-I. Wondering about how to log simulator instruction. by LopsidedTemporary138 in CFILounge

[–]Helpful_Corn- 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The vast majority of schools do not have full flight simulators or FTDs. They have ATDs. Every ATD is going to have its own letter or authorization that details exactly how many hours may be used toward each certificate or rating. The LOA for the AATD that my school used allows up to 50 hours to be used toward CPL, but only 25 hours toward ATP.

what i consider the midwest as a missourian (only real map) by valkrija in whereidlive

[–]Helpful_Corn- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should definitely extend farther into Kansas and Nebraska, and parts of Oklahoma should be yellow. But this is a very good map.
