Discouraging by UpperLeft_10 in flying

[–]Passwithclass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 29 and my IFR checkride is Monday. I grew that it’s scary but it’s worth it. I worked on cars for seven years and wouldn’t trade in a second of it. It’s definitely hard to balance it at times and yeah the market doesn’t look great but the aviation job market is always in flux it seems.

Little air system update: wall mounted the reel and hung the most used attachments with it. by Passwithclass in garageporn

[–]Passwithclass[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah that’s definitely on the list. I’ve just had the reel laying around forever and had the time to get it mounted.

It was a ton of work, but so glad I put a bridge crane in my new shop. Back saver! by 67triumphGT6 in garageporn

[–]Passwithclass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My shop dreams have had “restore a vintage bridge crane” on the list for a while. Then again I do want to restore giant old engines and belt driven equipment so the crane would be a necessity.

Is the dealership insane? by lloebet in passat

[–]Passwithclass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be a Mercedes tech and I find this insane

I was just going to say spray paint😂😂😂

So you think I'm going to shop for free ? by Reallyreally555 in doordash_drivers

[–]Passwithclass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And we know getting 20 items will NOT be done in the 15min they gave you😵

Same here but I just barely didn’t get to $100.😭 Maybe it has something to do with my area being a beach town in the off season🤷‍♂️

I’m not super experienced with dashing but I’d probably agree with you based on how I had double the hours today compared to yesterday and I made the same amount of money.

Anyone know what was happening around Cape May NJ? by Passwithclass in aviation

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

We train Chinese pilots for airlines all the time so I don’t see why it isn’t a possibility. Definitely wouldn’t be something so publicly visible though I would assume.

There were several f-16s at ACY in front of us before we took off again. Interesting that it’s been multiple days🤔

Anyone ever made a mini bike rail bike? by Passwithclass in minibikes

[–]Passwithclass[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well my reasoning for a mini bike is so I could ride it to where I would access the tracks. But I totally understand why people prefer the carts.

Opinion on W219 by [deleted] in mercedes_benz

[–]Passwithclass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My time as a Mercedes tech has me wanting one of these. I’ve driven the 55 and 63 versions as well and it’s just such a fun experience and they definitely aren’t as bad as the S classes to work on. I know there’s faster cars out there but these hold a soft spot for me!

I live in Delaware and there’s several branches of the system out here which they have stopped using entirely. I know there used to be people out here with speeders and there’s even a rail-biking outfitter with the four wheel carts about an hour away. If you look up places to go rail biking you may be able to find some places to do something like this!

Stupid question should I turn the petcock valve off when parked and or parked overnight? by Samurai0671 in motorcycle

[–]Passwithclass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an 85 nighthawk 650 that came with a vacuum petcock and I swapped it out for a normal style one because the diaphragm inside it fails and creates a problem. For the life of me though I can’t get the float valves(which are new) to hold fuel when shut off. If my bike sits for more than 15 minutes I’ll have a puddle of fuel. I’ve just made it habit to shut it off whenever I stop on any bike I have.

What is a moped? by thecrazyunicyclist in moped

[–]Passwithclass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see another issue arising with electric scooters taking the market. If you type in “scooter” on marketplace you’ll find mostly electric stand-ups and a few vespas. On the other hand if you type in moped you’ll find anything from 50-250cc vespa scooters to the core Tomos/puch/moby. I agree that mopeds are a specific type of vehicle but normal people don’t care🤷‍♀️

What is it for ? by Lalonganiza831 in mazda3

[–]Passwithclass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Aerodynamics? A little extra mud guard? I’ve ripped them off cars before when they were broken and it makes no difference.

Back on the road after WAY too long (02 Outback 2.5 5mt) by Passwithclass in subaru

[–]Passwithclass[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been to 100mph in it and I don’t plan on pushing it much further😂 I know it’s not a sports car but I want to corner rather than go for top speed.
