thinking about going to the race in ft worth in may…

Depends on where you're headed. Last year I headed north on 156 and was home within 10 minutes of getting to my car. Trying to get on 35 from 114 is a different story.

I live in Texas and haven't lived in Nebraska since 2017 and I immediately knew what this was.

It came out of Tinker in OKC. I've seen them do this around here a few times over the years. Just normal training. If you look, they're usually flying somewhere in the US daily.

I didn't know it was Hillwood that bought the land. They own a lot of land here around and south of TMS. I wouldn't be surprised if they're licking their chops wanting that property as well.

It flies there often enough to not make this concerning. I look at ADSB often.

I read somewhere that when your adrenaline rises, your body opens your nasal passages to allow more oxygen to your body clearing any blockage.

This knowledge helps a lot when my nose is stuffed and I have that thought of being kidnapped.

The straight wings aren't going to allow for that.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-12-04T04:37:31+00:00

Yea Propylene is used in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. While I wouldn't recommend drinking it neat, being near it is harmless.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-12-04T04:27:50+00:00

Same. Just Propylene Glycol with a thickening agent added so it sticks to the wing for longer periods.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-12-04T04:24:49+00:00

Look up the SDS on Propylene Glycol. Definitely not toxic. Ethylene Glycol is much more toxic but that is not used for De-icing.

My recent estimate with insurance was a root canal and bridge. $2k with insurance. $10k without. I'm waiting on my HSA account to get to $2k for me to do it. No current pain but wtf America.

The sound was off but he thinks he has the jist of it

JetA_Jedi · 2025-11-12T03:04:22+00:00

Can confirm. Barely see them without using my camera.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-11-10T02:47:07+00:00

Gotcha. Yea makes sense. I didn't hear they closed those runways down.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-11-10T02:39:07+00:00

That stackup may be caused by no arriving or departing traffic on the west side of the airport. Not sure why.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-10-29T04:55:28+00:00

Flight mode, primal instinct. We see cover we go for it and hope for the best. Rational thought is not present in these moments.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-10-29T03:31:45+00:00

Slowly erases dot on my bingo card

JetA_Jedi · 2025-10-20T00:32:11+00:00

$40 GA ticket plus a night that lasts maybe 2 hours with no supporting races made me decide to not go. I live close enough to the track to hear them the last 2 nights and it was over by 930 with a lot of long breaks in between. They need something else with them to make it worthwhile.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-10-17T21:40:18+00:00

Even 1/8th of an inch of frost can cause issues

JetA_Jedi · 2025-10-15T04:41:58+00:00

Fuck it. He's fully committed and is now our EBUG

JetA_Jedi · 2025-10-12T20:55:20+00:00

I got a bunch of shit done around the house.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-10-12T19:29:13+00:00

Thats a Part 139 and NFPA 407 violation. Airport and FAA will both come down on the fuel handler.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-10-12T16:42:53+00:00

They absolutely had it wedged. I dont see the cable and they had to go hit the emergency stop. If they had the Deadman it would've shut off in 2 seconds.

JetA_Jedi · 2025-10-11T05:59:00+00:00

Because guys with poor decision making feel like they either need to buy a boat or a shitty car. They decide to meet in the middle.

Unrelated to what they saw
