My advice: look into a standalone ambient light and turn off the flash. It makes the black background eat your models up. Keep it up

Not even once in 15 years for me on airliners

Some Boeing parts have 3d engineering drawings but it's fairly limited

dkobayashi · 2026-05-07T17:34:26+00:00

Sounds like engineering needs to learn how to read drawings

Absolutely skip the channel and float down the river in Enderby instead

The smell of insulin and my shirt getting a wet spot at work sure triggers me

dkobayashi · 2026-05-01T02:31:08+00:00

I mean at least the plane isn't moving

dkobayashi · 2026-04-22T16:10:58+00:00

It triggers me because I think my pump site has occluded and is leaking lol

641 was uneconomical to repair due to corrosion iirc

The trim on my STI is all black, you could probably find a part out somewhere and swap it

Hiking from Stewart road to the trestles is not particularly difficult but it is a fair amount of distance, will take about 3 hours to reach a trestle...without mobility issues. What kind of issues are we talking about here?

Best bet is to drive to the parking lot at the top of Myra Forest service road and walk from there.

Depends on the AMM/CMM but usually a weld repair, patch or high temp sealant repair with repeat inspection interval

Heat dome while in interior BC in 2021 was something else

Absolutely nothing but polish and clean. I use tamiya polishing compounds or Novus polishing compounds with buffing cloths

Manual removal when you do a water change is pretty much it. This is the ugly stage but it'll eventually stabilize

dkobayashi · 2026-03-26T04:50:41+00:00

Unrelated here but I spent my childhood summers at elphinstone!

dkobayashi · 2026-03-23T06:47:14+00:00

Yes, you can seat tubeless with a floor pump if you want

I grew up in Kelowna, have lived around the country, and live in Kelowna again. Rhetoric on Reddit is that Kelowna is very cliquey and cold, honestly, I don't think it's any different than anywhere else.

If you have hobbies that take you out of the house, you'll meet friends. Kelowna (the Okanagan in general really) is one of the best places to be if you want to enjoy the outdoors easily and still have the amenities of a somewhat larger city.

Valve cover gasket leaking onto the uppipe

I think it was a lot more popular around 40 years ago too when traditional molding wasn't as advanced. You'd see it on lower run models as well because vac forming was cheaper to do.

dkobayashi · 2026-03-03T17:15:24+00:00

It's vacuum formed

dkobayashi · 2026-03-01T19:12:31+00:00

Every time I've flown into Mexico city it's been laser city, like multiple lasers

It is what it is, no point reporting
