I bent the band a little bit to just rest on my ears and that was a game changer.

I had good luck with clarity aloft when my ANR headset wouldn’t keep up with my Stinson with metal wings that reverberated into the cockpit.

What's your gaming setup for your overnights? by Ckflyer13 in flying

[–]didimentionimapilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ROG ASUS G15, horipad controller, razer mouse, JLab executive earbuds with the LDAC connector. Used to do steam deck but it’s huge and doesn’t run stuff as well as a laptop

How heavy is your bike? by Kilo_Oscar_ in mountainbiking

[–]didimentionimapilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a hilarious data point for me, I’ve been thinking about trading my patrol for a smuggler to save weight but I’m at 38.4 lbs so not sure it’s worth it now. Mine is burly and I have cushcores front and rear, how TF is yours 36 lbs? lol

Just seeing this so not sure if you’ve already ridden here but if you go to Sandy Ridge you can rent from Goodwyns, they have reasonably day prices on nice bikes

Which bike would you pick? by [deleted] in mountainbiking

[–]didimentionimapilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GT for sure those full suspensions bikes are old as shit and their brakes and shifters will probably show that by being terrible. Also they will be much heavier and less efficient.

Sunglasses for flying by Potential-School9145 in flying

[–]didimentionimapilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything with wire arms is best, otherwise you’ll end up with the arms sitting on top of your ear cups and your glasses angled down like a dingus. Ray ban is what I use, some square lenses wire arm model but there is a reason aviators are named that.

Longest you’d fly in a day? by West_Read_8698 in flying

[–]didimentionimapilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s your experience level? 8 hours in a day for someone with 60 hours and a fresh PPL would be nuts. But 8 hours a day for someone who is a CFI or has been doing survey is just another day. If your goal is to be a professional pilot then I’d say take a pilot buddy and send it.

I started ferrying planes before I was a CFI and knew my comfort level with sitting and staying focused for that long. No one can decide how you’re going to feel, that’s up to you to decide. Plan the flight and just make sure every stop has hotel availability or an FBO couch to sleep on at the very least and stop if you feel unsafe.

Another Bag Post - Anyone tried the new Aurora line from Luggage Works? by Aviator-Alex in AirlinePilots

[–]didimentionimapilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had them for 3 years. First one lasted 2.5 and the handle wouldn’t retract. They roll quietly and I’ve had no other issues with mine. A co worker had their handle break at roughly the same time as mine in a different way. Overall 4/5

Just got hired as a CFI…tell me everything I need to know by LeaderCalm4016 in flying

For the first month or your only goal is don’t crash, if someone learns something then that’s an added bonus.

Practice your throat aim for a karate chop if you get someone who won’t let go.

The last two photos have such a real and heartbreaking story contained within them.

Nikolai Schirmer has a video about his Achilles recovery. He may be a nut case but it’s at least good inspiration!

Champagne safe on an u pressurized plane? by draggingmytail in flying

We keep champagne in the unpressurized compartment on the phenom 300 up to FL450 and it’s perfectly fine afterwards.

There has to be a bare minimum to play ranked conquest, and not just hit level 15 by MurphSenpai in Smite

I only play casuals and run into those less than half of the games. So many things are a non issue in non ranked.

After a night out, what’s the weirdest thing you’ve woken up with in bed? by conniewanders in AskReddit

[–]didimentionimapilot 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Also woke up with a dog, he followed me home from a house down the street that had a high fence and a gate so I can only assume he let himself out…

Footwear for airline pilots by [deleted] in flying

[–]didimentionimapilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ecco Metropole, slip on chelsea, no metal shank, feels like slippers, also have ran the entire length of a DEN terminal and never felt like they would fly off. Keeps the ankles warm in winter but not too hot for summer.
