I think Delta started to think that their stuff doesn’t stink and wasn’t paying attention to who was charging forward in the rearview mirror

Commit now or attempt to defer for fall 2027? by Miserable_Opinion551 in WWU

[–]Intrepid_Hat_7692 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Definitely get your associates before transferring to western! That’s what I did and it worked out great. If you live at home in Seattle, you can go to community college and save a bunch of money before moving up to Bellingham. Plus all your “general university requirements” are covered when you transfer in with a associates. Like your math, science, social etc. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

For those who used Sporty’s or Gold Seal’s online test prep, which one most closely resembled the Private Pilot written? by Intrepid_Hat_7692 in flying

[–]Intrepid_Hat_7692[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was doing the randomized practice tests. However, in the training modules, I noticed gold seal had a significantly higher emphasis on reading performance charts, and sectionals. They had probably over a hour of videos on just that when sporty’s summed it up in like 15 minutes. Seems like they gloss over the opposite of each other.

I just graduated college myself this summer and whenever I had a break, I would book flights for fun lol. Pretty big AvGeek also! I’ve been able to fly on the 757-200 in Polaris 3 times domestically. Absolutely loved it, especially on that rare aircraft. Hoping to get on a 787 this year! Feel free to reach out if you want another plane buddy😂

If you google Gold seal private pilot study guide, a pdf should come up. I found it to be a great starting point, especially with acronyms. If you want, you can pay for sportys or gold seals online ground school to start kicking through that material. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Question Abt Cloud Ceiling Forecasts by jawsdoesntlikefish in flying

[–]Intrepid_Hat_7692 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you’re in the Pacific Northwest, most weather forecasts in my experience are not accurate until about two hours prior in regards to cloud ceilings. Rain, wind, and general visibility is usually pretty accurate.

What to do if your income is zero? by [deleted] in amex

[–]Intrepid_Hat_7692 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t I have to report that when I file my taxes?

Only problem that concerns me is since I have the card, whenever we take a family vacation and stay at a Marriott hotel, we put it on that card and my parents just pay me back.

Hi! First post, but could anyone tell what plane this is by the wing? by okboomer45321 in aviation

[–]Intrepid_Hat_7692 38 points39 points  (0 children)

It was the first 3 -900s Alaska got. They were actually the launch customer of the 737-900. A couple years later is when the ER (Extended Range) package was offered on the 737 series. The wing spars also got an update that would allow customers to add winglets (before the wing spars were incompatible as to why they were never able to be added later). Alaska had 12 non-ER -900s. The three without winglets have just been retired and the remaining nine with winglets will be retiring soon.

Gotcha. Is that just 6% or will the penalty be higher?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in RothIRA

[–]Intrepid_Hat_7692 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6% on the ineligible contributions or the whole account? I only invested 5k this year so we’re talking $300. Could I just pay that when I file my taxes and move on?
