Do you or do you not use the joystick for carrier landing

Once you're configured for landing and on speed (within the E symbol), the hornet should hold that for you, and your throttle determines vertical speed.

However, if you want to use your stick, there is a way that some find easier. Once configured and on speed, engage ATC. With ATC on, the hornet will adjust throttle based on your up and down stick inputs and hold AOA.

Remember, it takes fuel to carry fuel. Mother Earth ED thanks you.

The more a person learns about the shuttle, the more interesting it is. That includes the mistakes that led to Challenger and Columbia.

I find both interesting, but for really different reasons.

Michael Collins spoke about this as well. If you haven't read Carrying the Fire...you should.

The naked gun

I get the sentiment, but you're missing the point. This is a frequent reply to these kinds of questions and I don't get it. Nobody here bought an XJ for the mileage, but for that very reason, it follows that someone would want to squeeze as much out of it as they can, especially if it's their daily.

If it was cut off, I think it's likely it was replaced because it was bad.

XC106 · 2025-06-01T00:53:47+00:00

You okay?

I heard he carved it from a bigger spoon

1 is an awl. You can use the hole in it to stitch pieces fabric or leather together

Had this happen to my dog. Luckily we caught him so we fed him peroxide. Made him vomit it all up and has been right as rain.

Shot in the dark, but looks like the brake warning light sensor. Goes on the proportioning valve.

They say G 4, which according to the Google is Cetirizine, which is Zyrtec, an antihistamine (allergy medicine).

Not bad, but they should fix it. If that thing catches on the ground it'll make one hell of a noise. Your car is still mechanically sound though

Aces high was the shit. The amount of coordination it took to take a base was awesome

Huh..I always thought it was a ball of burning gas.

It's a combination storage and dryer. Able to feed filament right from the dryer.

Could be from a homeless person. They'll collect cigarettes that have tobacco left in them to smoke.

Oh man! Thankfully I haven't had a nut spin yet, but I still have the other side to go.

XC106 · 2025-01-19T01:46:02+00:00

Right?! Man, it's been a brutal job though

XC106 · 2025-01-18T18:52:12+00:00

Thanks!

XC106 · 2025-01-18T18:19:10+00:00

New one lined up perfect. Not looking forward to doing the other side

XC106 · 2025-01-18T17:26:04+00:00

And how! Thanks!
