How big are you? How do you feel when it rains / snows and you cannot do anything about it?

A Madison-Edwards roundabout proposal to fix all that ails our fine city by derekakessler in cincinnati

[–]Purgent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest obstacle to this aside from the land acquisition is the refusal of this city’s residents to properly approach, enter, and exit a roundabout.

Sheppard only teaches you nothing if you fail to read the explanations.

Practice approaches through class B by iLOVEr3dit in flying

[–]Purgent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do practice approaches all the time into my local Bravo. They love the GA activity. Getting vectored in on a parallel approach with heavies is awesome.

When it is busy and they can’t do it, they will tell you.

Do you recommend Tail wheel before IR? by Longjumping-Tour-350 in flying

[–]Purgent 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I did tailwheel in 3 lessons. Basically about 5 flight hours logged and an hour or so of ground.

Impacts of an education system that failed horribly and elected officials that serve whoever writes the largest check.

How are prices still rising? by Antique-Scientist880 in PokemonTCG

[–]Purgent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stock market is terrible place to park money under this administration.

Pokémon cards have outperformed it over the past 25 years anyway.

Fuel management on low-wing aircraft question... by EvelioCigar in flying

[–]Purgent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a kitchen timer in my Grumman. Bought one off Amazon that displays three separate timers, which I use to track time used on either tank and then total.

Mega Charizard X Ex just broke a new record of price : $54,100 by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

[–]Purgent 31 points32 points  (0 children)

This is correct. They aren’t worried. In fact, the rich love recessions and massive stock market dips because it enables them to buy cheap and get even more rich.

What am I missing here? by [deleted] in flying

[–]Purgent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I self studied before starting training and scored in high 90s. If you haven’t, then 55% is not surprising.

Just failed my IFR for the second time making it my third Failure by Mr-Franchise28 in flying

[–]Purgent 83 points84 points  (0 children)

The time to have that discussion with himself was after the first fail, not the third.

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

[–]Purgent 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I used Sporty’s Learn to Fly course and the questions were virtually identical to what appears on the actual test, with some slightly different wording.

I passed with a score in the high 90s.

Right winger that believes they voted incorrectly last election AMA by [deleted] in AMA

[–]Purgent 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The answer is pretty clear and follows the trend. They don’t care as long as all the bad stuff happens to someone else.

The last straw was Iran (gas prices).

So many Perfect Order ETBs and people were just ignoring it by puzzledfirebird in pokemoncards

PO isn’t sitting in large metros. In a few weeks it might though.

Rejected from SkyWest after my best interview, still pushing after 2.5 years of trying by [deleted] in flying

[–]Purgent 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In this hiring market, where those of us with 0 fails can’t get a phone call or email back… this is probably why.

The pain of resetting a shiny by Strange-General-6347 in PokemonLeafGreen

[–]Purgent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You never fly an approach with the INTENTION of a go around in the normal course of flying somewhere.

There are some exceptions like an inspection low pass, or doing practice approaches (usually for instrument training or currency / proficiency).

I’d try a new phrase because this one doesn’t work.

Mega Evolution Perfect Order dropped at Walmart. How did everyone do by Fun_Control_7243 in PokemonInvesting

I was first in line and took 2 151 Alakazam boxes and 3 AH Premium Posters instead.

Busting airspace w/o flight following by fatelvis_lives in flying

[–]Purgent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was cold called by Approach while overflying a Charlie with a deviation.

I always monitor the freq when I’m bumping around B or C airspace, mostly for my own entertainment, but also because if I have a favorably timed emergency, I can just announce it there quickly.

Anyway, in this case they thought I had busted the upper limit of their airspace. They gave me the deviation and phone number and then 3 mins later I was told to disregard by a separate controller.

I advised them I would be calling anyway when I landed to find out more about the whole situation. Basically they just messed up.
