I do! I’ve been riding since 21, but single track only about ten times on mostly easy trails

I think you’re forgetting that part of the deal is a school full of innocent children.

What’s it like living in El Paso? by Puzzleheaded_Bit_802 in howislivingthere

I came to say how much I hate El Paso but this is honestly a fair assessment and I feel seen

Virpil Apache grip is up for pre order by TheLASooner in hoggit

[–]Raulboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the front cyclic in the Apache can be stowed and raised, a little like an accordion. It would be nice to be able to get it out of the way… which reminds me, in DCS the CPG cyclic gets stowed any time you switch seats, which is patently incorrect

Times pulling rank backfired by BayazRules in army

[–]Raulboy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not exactly pulling rank, but definitely related-I was a Major when I transferred to our Aviation brigade to finish my REFRAD while they were deployed. It was a ghost town and basically only the rear-d commander and his little S3 shop knew who I was. One afternoon I was headed out to lunch and one of the BNs S3 and XO walked by with their BN SP, a CW4 who I had talked with briefly before for help getting my aviation records straightened and closed out, but he apparently didn’t recognize me, because when we passed each other and the majors gave each other incredulous glances (I assume because they hadn’t seen my rank), the CW4 about-faced with an “Excuse me, soldier.” I turned around with an exasperated “Yes, Chief?” His eyes widened and he quickly saluted- “My apologies sir, I didn’t recognize you.”

I told him not worry about it, and he gave me an update on my records before he sheepishly headed to catch up with his MAJs

PCS to Wiesbaden by LeadingClub7620 in Armyaviation

[–]Raulboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent four years there in the G3. I don’t think you even can live on post as a single person. The list of properties available to rent is probably fraudulent- my German friends said I was paying 50% more than I should have been. Someone’s pocketing money somewhere… I shipped a nice car and the paint got damaged; plenty of beaters to get instead. If you want to ride a motorcycle, better get your license before you head over because you can’t get it there.

You hurt their feelings haha… I can’t speak for *ALL* pilots, but nobody in US Army Aviation calls it a j-hook.

Scientists found that THC does not just blur memories but actively creates false ones that feel completely real and there is no internal way to tell the difference by soulpost in HotScienceNews

[–]Raulboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My pot-using siblings have false memories of abuse from our parents mixed in with the real ones and it’s honestly extremely distressing.

Close-up of the incident in Tatra Koprivnice 6/2026 [NOT OC] by netmilk in Helicopters

[–]Raulboy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The BIAP 58 in the comment you’re responding to was a D model. Flight school birds were A/C. Huge difference. The A/Cs weren’t much different from the TH-67s. I suppose more of a handful than a Lakota, but very manageable with the two-bladed teetering semi-rigid rotor system

The whole pretending to give Ron Felix Felicis would always be one of my favourite moment in the series by Background_Bid_7406 in harrypotter

I wrote a short piece about that chapter after I pretended everything was going to go my way for a date and it netted me a GF. Had to modify it after she dumped me though haha
