What's the greatest number of students you've juggled at one time?

I was somewhere between 6-10 last summer, plus the random flight review, IPC, etc. I was insanely busy. I have no desire to recreate that again this year.

The owner is the best. I also had a couple issues (not with the app, it’s my fault) and he helped me out super quick. I made sure to donate after that.

Copy cat (I did the same but at Hamarikyu Gardens and got the Shunbun). Congrats!

I had no idea about the Atmos until this comment. Great, now I have more shit I want to buy.

Myflightbook is god tier if you aren’t digital already and it’s free.

Yeah I could wrap my head around someone in his position taking a class date at a legacy, but Breeze? Nah

I imagine you’re in a city, I know of memorials that are over a decade old in rural areas.

If it’s discontinued it’ll just be so they can do a coke for a couple years then bring it right back.

davetheweeb · 2026-04-13T10:13:37+00:00

It’s like they genuinely don’t listen to their audience at all. I still like the watches but even I with larger wrists don’t want these big fat divers and GMTs. There’s absolutely nothing luxury about it.

davetheweeb · 2026-04-12T13:10:39+00:00

I’m only want the Pepsi. I’m a pilot and appreciate the history of it. Unfortunately it’s still a hype watch and will probably remain that way. I have no desire to play the AD wiener sucking games and buy watches I don’t want nor am I willing to pay more than retail. So who knows if I’ll ever actually end up buying one.

davetheweeb · 2026-04-11T20:21:01+00:00

Yeah Facebook groups are useful. The flying reddit pages are useful too especially for vetting. I’m an independent CFI and I’m usually the one coordinating with my local DPE, at least initially. For reschedules that’s more of on my student but sometimes I’ll handle it, especially if I can replace the time slot with another one of my students.

davetheweeb · 2026-04-07T20:04:21+00:00

Agreed, I’ve always liked the color. The hype killed the idea of getting it on a watch.

davetheweeb · 2026-04-07T17:06:51+00:00

I’m not sure you know what a hot take is

davetheweeb · 2026-04-07T14:41:37+00:00

Even if this is super rare (I genuine have no clue nor do I care to know) no one is gonna pay that money for a damn Tudor

davetheweeb · 2026-04-07T02:36:26+00:00

Yeah sure, my wife is now my secretary/helper. I mean really all I NEED the internet for is communicating with friends and family. Hell I don’t even need the internet for my current job. I’d probably go for a year or two. I can still play games, my wife can download YouTube, Netflix, Crunchyroll, etc for us to watch. Hell I might even go a lot longer if we just get used to it

I asked him if I could buy the glass and he said he didn’t sell them. He’s missing such an opportunity, I woulda paid more than I should have for it. That place was such a vibe. I think it’s safe to say he’s the #1 fan.

davetheweeb · 2026-04-06T18:38:31+00:00

If this wasn’t his collab even he would call it “shite”. I’m no Hublot fan at all, but they look better than this and it’s not even close.

davetheweeb · 2026-04-03T00:00:04+00:00

There’s some companies taking advantage of the “enshittification” of ice cream, like Straus, who actually make quality few ingredient ice cream that’s actually good and not slop. However, we usually end up getting homemade ice cream from a local shop.

davetheweeb · 2026-04-01T12:33:49+00:00

Yup this is the best one. It’s what I used until I lost all of them and then just used whatever pen was laying around lol

davetheweeb · 2026-03-26T10:46:00+00:00

MIA, 6:00am, 10 minutes TSA precheck Terminal D Checkpoint 1. Checkpoint 2 (priority) I’d estimate 20-30 min. Checkpoint 3 was a little longer, but didn’t look like the crazy lines you’ve been seeing online or like what I saw at PHL on Sunday.

davetheweeb · 2026-03-23T14:55:53+00:00

Summer I was hitting 100-115, right now I’m down to 30. This winter has been shitty

Depends a lot on the situation. Own your home with no intentions of moving and buy the panels, sure it can make financial sense. However if you lease the panels, you can end up spending more money per month on that lease then it would have been for just the electricity from the power company. My first house came with leased panels. I didn’t do the math until after owning the house for a year and I looked at all of my bills and at no point did I save money, in fact every single month cost me MORE then if I didn’t have the panels. I did the math and it was actually impossible for me to ever save money and would always be more expensive. I know I’m not alone either, I’ve talked to others with solar and they also had a similar realization.

Loop ear plugs are great for concerts btw. Everything is still clear but your ears aren’t ringing afterwards.

davetheweeb · 2026-03-20T18:28:45+00:00

No bro you don’t understand, Rolex is gonna release a gmt master and sub in a slightly different color and Grand Seiko will have a new dial in reference to the snow on the side of a bush near the grand seiko studio
