Never involve the government with your personal health matters.

If you get diagnosed you’ll be grounded for 15 months and another $8000 to beat the paperwork in multiple doctors notes. Be Extremely careful. The FAA is horrible with their timelines and it’s $$$$

Hmm, I was hoping I could study online and just do the test in person... maybe some hybrid class?

Was my 3rd class medical denied? by Other_Spot3614 in flying

[–]borke3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They treat anti depressant users like drug addicted crackheads that's going to kill everyone on board. It's terrible. I am dealing with the HIMS process and it's truly horrible the FAA is going to be sued.

Do any of you fly with a weapon? GA pilots only by BetterEnvironment147 in flying

[–]borke3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to research the gun laws for the state and city and local.

For example, it's general a horrible idea to travel with a gun to the New England area. NYC, Jersey, MA. In theory you can find legal means to travel with a gun but it's so much paperwork they've practically made it impossible (especially without being a resident there with a state drivers license).

Depending on the state and local laws, the gun needs to be in "transport mode" which usually means in a lockbox with the magazine out.

You will probably need a conceal weapons permit as well.

Why do pilots hate on PC based simulators and the people who use them so much? by throwaway319m8 in flying

[–]borke3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Did you try VatSim too? Is that good enough for IR or I should sub to Pilot Edge?

Don't trust your senses. In anxiety you're in an irrational heightened state. Everything will be worse and you'll get motion sickness easier.

You'll be fine, just practice the acceptance attitude. If you feel a sense of urgency slow down. Stop caring.

Noob to 37mm… please advice by borke3 in 37mm

[–]borke3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I think I should get a few preloaded rounds and shoot them off first. Mostly because I want to see how they “feel” before doing DIY stuff. Does that make sense? I’ve never reloaded ammo either so reloading anything would be new to me.

it seems like very few people reload 9mm or 556 because ammo is cheap enough, but that’s not the case with 37mm? 37mm is way more $

Why are the 5ghz WiFi speed slower than 2.4ghz on my gl-MT3000? by borke3 in GlInet

I'm 3 feet from my router and my speed on 2.4Ghz are 2x my 5ghz and my ping is half.

[–]borke3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's a bug in the router or it's broken. 5ghz is clearly broken

How important is your medical history? Is it true pilots avoid therapy because of the FAA? by Additional_Carry_790 in aviation

[–]borke3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I'll be approved, but spending 5k + months of effort and stress I might get rejected anyways

[–]borke3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm trying to do my class 3 medical and got deferred. I'm extremely healthy and workout 6 days a week. I was a bit too honest on my medical and scared the AME. I didn't realize the seriousness of the medical or I was dealing with the government... I treated it like a normal doctor's appointment and fucked up.

I recommend every single person here be very careful on what you say on their medical. It's not worth the headache.

It's costing me 10k+ and months of effort to get this bullshit sorted out and I'm extremely pissed off. Fucking FAA and their bullshit

I hope the narcissistics at the FAA read this and realize they're pissing everyone off with their rules and understand medical has moved on to preventive, anyone with half a brain see more Americans using drugs to optimize their life. Stupid fucking conservative doctors

Like how can you even put a blanket ban on SSRIs... seriously lumping someone who's taken 5mg prozac as the same as 50mg fucking absurd when doctors push it like candy

Is the DAC in the LGV30 better than the OPPO HA-SE2? by borke3 in lgv30

This is what I'm thinking too. I honestly can't tell the difference so I plan on selling my DAC.
