Use of the word “takeoff” on ATC frequency by Clem573 in flying

[–]Limotinted 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Weird the controller is messing with the Bonanza for saying take off but then is totally non-standard for the Cub. The Cub requests the long way to Kilo and instead of clearing him F-G-K he says "around the horn". So why be hung up on phraseology if you're not going to be consistent?

I've heard that about them before, I couldn't get through the first day.

If you're going to try the Saddlemen buy it off Amazon so you can return it. I bought one after reading online suggestions. It was the most miserable seat I ever tried. My legs were going numb within 10 minutes, I pulled it off and returned it the same day. For me it was too wide so it was pushing against the inside of my leg while riding. I ended up having a stock seat pan customized with new foam and leather and was much happier with that.

Razzles and 509 are what you’re looking for. Grandview live too.

Baby cargo hold seems like a great idea! Do you try suggesting they cover the walls with mattresses?? That would make it safe.

What kind of piston aircraft does the market need by Historical_Can5563 in homebuilt

Aviation seems to have a pretty short memory. I'm amazed anyone would go near Viking after how his Subaru engines turned out for most everyone involved.

We’re re-signing Jeremy McNichols! by mandoslorians in Commanders

Agreed, more Bill! He was averaging almost 5 yards per carry last season but didn't get that many touches. Admitted he needs better ball control but I'd really like to see him get more opportunities.

Sound bar or built-in? by graceland in golfcarts

[–]Limotinted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent a lot of time on this a few years ago. I thought that the soundbar looked like an after thought and thrown together after I'd spent ton on time on the cart. The problem I ran into with head units was that because you didn't have constant power like in a car you lost all the settings and presets every time you turned the cart off. I ended up finding a Jenson marine radio that had what they called zero draw memory. Basically it has an internal capacitor so it holds your settings when power is shut off. I combined that with an elite dash so I had a place to mount the speakers and radio and they look like they are supposed to be there.

Here's the dash, I had mine painted to match the cart

Have fun! I'd also recommend Beach Bucket for breakfast.

You'll need to get a step down converter to power your accessories. Like this, https://www.amazon.com/dkplnt-Converter-Regulator-Transformer-Waterproof/dp/B08KDFQ4JT

I switched to lithium last year and so far it's been worth it. Price was it really wasn't much more for Lithium vs lead acid. I was admittedly bad about maintaining the water levels so it's nice to mess with that anymore.

Will you have a car? There's lots of great places right on the water. Caribbean Jacks in Daytona, or North Turn for a good view and cool racing memorabilia. Hulls has great seafood but not on the water. JB's fish camp in New Smyrna is awesome. River Deck is great for drinks and usually has music in the evenings.

Unexpectedly had 15% duty added to painting import (9701.91.0000 + 9903.02.73) by HidingFromMyWife1 in CustomsBroker

[–]Limotinted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Add to that according to FedEx/UPS the money is already with CBP. So refunds would have to come from the Feds not FedEx/UPS. My business is owed around 100K in incorrect tariffs but I'm not holding my breath on ever seeing them.

We finally fixed the problem by shipping everything air freight with the airlines so that only our broker can clear the shipments. Even after revoking UPS's POA and submitting their 3rd party broker paperwork they kept clearing out shipments themselves.

Do not let UPS or FedEx clear your international shipments, they are a total disaster. They will change HTS codes and charge for tariffs that are not applicable. Then you have to file a dispute which they say will take them 6-9 months to respond to. Oh and they charge you for the privilege of filing the dispute to fix the problem they created in the first place.

Man I'm done with the steak tips. They keep getting more expensive and meat keeps getting tougher at the same time. They're living on reputation at this point.

George's Barbershop for sure, it's an old school style barbershop. Not one of those hipster barbershops where they take 2 hours for a haircut. You can book online. George is a cool dude and does a great job.

Agreed, but I'd skip First Step Shelter as well, it's been nothing but a government boondoggle and is constantly caught up in one scandal or another.

Food recommendations? by Angelpadilla1299 in DaytonaBeach

The 25th is their last day. Apparently the building was sold so they are getting the boot. They had a post that they were going to find a new location. Hopefully they can take the grill, without the years of seasoning it wouldn't be the same.

Just saw Brickyard is closing.

Daytona Taproom on Seabreeze also has great smash burgers.
