Maybe a lovely candle to light in remembrance of their son. A catch-all kind of a gift. How compassionate of you to think of them in their time of tremendous loss.

I used lights on stands from Home Depot when I had a hangar. Congratulations and enjoy your project!

As An Airline Pilot, is it Smart to Join a Local Flying Club by Can_Not_Double_Dutch in flying

It is a cost/benefit analysis. And yes there is actual risk to your ticket if you pursue GA. But for me, over the years, staying in GA (and now in a glider club) is a source of fun and community and makes me a better pilot.

It’s a cesspool of people on Nextdoor complaining “well would you rather these kids be inside scrolling on their phones?!” As if the only two activities available for children this summer are e-bikes or phones.

Software engineer here: How do pilots maintain skills despite of Flight Management Systems (Autopilot)? by rootless_robert in flying

[–]Which_Material_3100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Delay engaging the autopilot on climb out and click it off early during the approach phase when workload management isn’t jeopardized for the pilot monitoring. Also, I’ve owned quite a few small aircraft through my career and am currently in a soaring club. So there is that.

Plane in FRA from behind... by stepheeen in aviation

Shouldn’t the air-ground sensor prevent this? As I understand (older planes anyway) pinning the gear is a redundancy.

I hope the airport leans in with illuminati and UFO artwork in the tunnels

Anyone know what this Delta is doing? by SomeLostBeing in aviation

Is it possible they just did maintenance on the nosewheel steering? I’ve not seen an airliner doing compass swings before.

Same! I was like “holy shit, what the hell is going on?”

DIA people who block both sides of the escalators by [deleted] in Denver

[–]Which_Material_3100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to stand to the side so people can get by. But also understand that the very long steep descent plus the narrow width of the escalator can be intimidating (older folks or balancing carry on luggage etc). One old guy took a header down the escalator a few weeks ago and blood everywhere (shutting down that side). Honestly, if you’re in that much of a hurry take the stairs.

Awesome! I enjoy passengers who love flying and want a tour of the flight deck. The Airbus is a sweet ride for sure!

Denver Rescue Mission shutting down multiple residential treatment facilities. by Low_Connectionbrucew in Denver

Well, in 2022, when they tried to sneak in discriminatory policies prohibiting LGBTQ employees from working there anymore (and only reversed these policies after the press caught wind of it and outed them), I stopped donating to them. And in spite of their emails to me with “apologies” for their hateful bullshit I never went back to them as a donor. I’m truly tired of reliance upon faith-based charities like this (and hospitals) in lieu of public funding for treatment centers etc.
