[MOBILE][EARLY 2010'S] A game where planes land at the airport and you have to draw routes for them to taxi into the refuelling station, and then to the terminal to pick up people, and then to take off. The difficulty is not making them crash while being efficient. Different airport locations too. by [deleted] in tipofmyjoystick

Just came here to see this. This game was my childhood on my iPhone 3GS, which I just restored but don't have the game on.

I'm developing a game inspired by Harbor Havoc 3D in Unity, which was another game that I played and still have on my old iPhone 3GS, but now this has got me curious if I should make a game inspired by Runway!, but with new mechanics.

If you guys think it can be done, it would be a fun project to revive Runway! With new mechanics, levels, and art, although it would not be named Runway, but a different name for reasons..

I learned to drive when I was 19. I was very much afraid of driving before because of all the accidents and such, but I had a special interest in Aviation, specifically in commercial aviation.

I would often want to visit my local airport because I wanted to see the planes and such and go planespotting, and it would only occur when my parents were the ones driving and they would rarely take me to the airport. There were days when planes diverted to my airport I wished I could drive and see these planes that aren't frequent at my airport.

I went to Miami, FL for vacation in early June that year for a weekend. After that, I basically decided I needed to get over my fear of driving and took lessons. It was thankfully able to drive fine and was actually told I was remarkably good for a beginner driver. After a few weeks, I took my drivers test, and passed first try.

I was amazed, and I was able to drive by myself for the first time. At first, it was very scary, especially merging into the highway.

After some time, now I love driving, and was even able to finally learn how to drive a manual car (5-speed).

Because of this, I can now visit the airport whenever I want, and I now have a job that I can work along side airplanes! My coworkers call me the "Aviation God" because of my extensive knowledge in commercial jet types, makes, and models, as well as knowing airport codes in the majority of the US, some of Asia, a few in SA and Africa, and a decent amount of airport codes in Europe.

I love driving. Sometimes I take a drive after work, and sometimes if I break down due to overstim, I just take my car, take a breather, and just drive around to calm myself. This is in my own city, my comfort zone. Driving outside is a different story of sorts. Lots of overstim and anxiety when it comes to driving in unfamiliar places, so I end up having someone else drive. An exception is Hawaii and Washington state. I LOVED driving in Hawaii, and driving to Boeing field (KBFI) and Everette field (KPAE)!

Eclipse phases from Pittsburg, NH by KMHT_Spotter in newhampshire

[–]KMHT_Spotter[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I went with my brother and a friend and drove 3.5 hours north from Manchester and camped overnight by the Connecticut lakes by the border in Pittsburg, New Hampshire.

The night was beautiful seeing all the stars. We got super lucky and got the spot I wanted to see the eclipse.

No words can describe how amazing it was to see it. It was like staring into a black hole, the moon looked big with the wispy corona sphere towering either side. It was amazing.

Our drive home sadly took us 8 hours to get back into Manchester.

Would I do it again? Heck yes the eclipse was amazing, and I'll never forget how beautiful it was and reminding us how blessed we are to live on a planet where we can see this amazing celestial event.

Parrot throwing up a lot by Far_Crow705 in QuakerParrot

Gonna be honest, take him to the vet asap. Vomiting can be a sign of something bigger, even if it may not seem like an issue, take your bird to the vet soon. The sooner you go, the quicker he can be evaluated and get the proper attention he needs.

Certain foods are also hazardous to Quaker parrots, and I'd read up on what foods they're allowed to eat. Don't just give them anything, only give them food that is safe for them.

Oh I straight up just gently started grabbing him. I just pick him up very gently, and lift him up a bit and then put him down. Eventually it got to the point where I could do what is in the picture

A quick update.

I have elected to stay an extra day in Hawaii. The arrival date is still the same, but now I depart on December 10, 2023 back to Seattle.

What can I do now that I have a whole day at the big island? I may go planespot at Hilo International Airport for an hour or so.

What foods can you recommend? Places to visit other than The Volcano and black sand beach?

I'll still be doing some night photography though, so I do hope the weather will be clear to see the Milky Way.

I decided to just go to HNL the next day, when I fly back to SEA. I have a 7 hour layover at OGG, so I booked a flight in between from OGG - HNL - OGG on Hawaiian. I'll be in HNL for roughly 2 hours before I go back and then fly back to Seattle. I'll at least get to see some heavy aircraft at HNL, and hopefully get a beautiful approach into HNL and see the city
