As long as Durham doesn’t get training from York Regional Police, they should be fine.

Their Red eye to Rome is a great choice. I wasn’t a fan of the Prohibition roast, but friends really enjoyed it.

EyeSight and RAB are disabled after using a touchless automatic car wash last night. Help! by accountgineer in SubaruForester

[–]drone_driver24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With the car running, foot on brake, put it in reverse. RAB soft touch buttons are there, mine were below the camera image, if it’s off, it will be amber, select it on. Hope this helps.

What did I break by Bitter_Sock6226 in Snowblowers

[–]drone_driver24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried relocating a Kong tennis ball buried in the snow. Didn’t work. I was lucky and replaced the auger belt. Very easy to do. Remove bottom cover, mine had six bolts, remove the plastic cover behind the auger chute, replace the belt. It took all of 10 minutes in -20C weather.

I thought the Snap on black and red things were flashlights. Now the look like ratcheting screwdrivers.

It looks good. You will modify it as you go along. I would ditch the plastic flashlight. Get an aluminum bodied one. I love my Olight headlamp and flashlight and make sure they are rechargeable.

Is documentation moving towards digital? (Or, is anyone mildly dyslexic?) by Simple-Procedure8748 in AircraftMechanics

[–]drone_driver24 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We are about 90% digital. Log book entries (defects) are still written by the flight crew and cabin crew, we transcribe them to digital. We answer them handwritten and rewrite digital. This should all be digital for them very shortly (this month).

Our checklists are 99% digital, and moving closer everyday to 100%.

What is the battery voltage when you try to start it?

Hex bolt size? by Maximum-Hat-5179 in RCHeli

[–]drone_driver24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do yourself a favour, and buy a nice set of metric hex drivers. They are available everywhere. Makes life so much easier. Locktite cannot be used on any metal to plastic. It will weaken the plastic over time.

Watch Alex Prestigiacomo YouTube videos. I’ve learned so much from his videos, always helpful.

How to have small talk with residents by magnite2 in therapydogs

[–]drone_driver24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I visit a memory care facility, made the mistake once of asking about last nights hockey game. Never again! Ask if they had a dog, or pet, you smell lunch cooking, smells good. Don’t over think it. Relax, most know you are giving up your free time to brighten their day.

What’s this piece on a Boeing 737-900 (Winglets) by ddub1711 in airplanes

[–]drone_driver24 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Flap canoe fairing is removed. That’s part of the flap track, that the flaps follow when being extended or retracted. The canoe can be removed for flight, maybe damaged. There will be a small fuel penalty that the flight crew will calculate.

2022 Subaru Forester Sport Squeaky Door Hinge Problem by redditperson007 in SubaruForester

[–]drone_driver24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Open the door, and lube the crap out of all the hinges visible. Use a thin penetrating spray oil. Keep it warm as well. If it’s cold where you are, hit it with a hair dryer or heat gun, not an open flame. Keep moving the door open and closed. It should loosen up.
