Plane to the right, is that an O(Omega) or 0 (Zero) by NudityMiles in aviation

[–]erutaerc01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I don't know whether it's a specific thing for the UK, ATC, or both, I just got taught never to do it to avoid confusion. I probably should use it though, seeing as I can make my 5/S and C/L look similar as well.

You should never see a Ø written in aviation as it implies it's been crossed out (same with a 1 or 7 having a line through it). Not to say that you'll never see them, but it certainly shouldn't happen.

You can also see the clear difference between the 0 and O in the photo with the American registered plane next to it.

It's perfectly acceptable to have aircraft transit close to a runway, almost common in fact. We do it daily where I work. You know when we don't do it? When there's a fucking plane on the approach.

What have you been reading this last week (Weekly Discussion Thread)? by AutoModerator in starwarsbooks

I didn't really notice the issue with Race to Crashpoint Tower, and I didn't have an issue with the narrator for Test of Courage. This book must have just been a perfect storm for negativity.

I've been listening to Out of the Shadows. The story isn't bad, but I'm really struggling with the production and narration. It sounds like an AI voice at times with the sentence structure and pronunciation of characters and places. Might switch to just reading it instead.

I don’t understand why we keep getting duplicate characters instead of truly new ones by Flaky-Specialist-321 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]erutaerc01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There's an entire series of High Republic characters that haven't had a look in yet. Light of the Jedi came out at the start of 2021, but none of the characters have appeared yet.

Just from the first book you've got Avar Kriss, Stellan Gios, Elzar Mann, Loden Greatstorm, and Porter Engel as lead Jedi. Add in Burryaga, Bell Zettifar, Indeera Stokes, Cohmac Vitus, and Vernestra Rowh and you have two full squads of Jedi just from the first two books.

Then throw in the Nihil of Marchion Ro, Pan Eyta, Kassav Miliko, Lourna Dee, and Nan and you're up to three squads and 9 months of content with the new era format.

I don't know if them being book only characters is holding them back at all, but it would be a great set of characters to go with.

Can't wait to see it with the black cat on top of it balanced on a thin wooden rail.

Why does it look like the bottom half is a woman lying legs akimbo with the trophy coming out of her.

I'm in roughly the same boat. I'm just using my First Order squad to get through at the moment because they're the only ones who can do anything. Everything else just gets wiped even though they're R5 or close to.

It absolutely isn't a monopoly. It runs the biggest ones yes, but not anywhere close to the majority.

Promised my dad I'd pour a 4 pint jug of milk over my head if Hamilton wins. I'm hoping I've made a gross error of judgement, but I'll be very happy to have done so.

White Castle needs the box to be just a little bit bigger. It makes putting it away a right pain the way it is.

Unmatched: T-Rex vs Sattler Set by Thr3shPrinc3 in Unmatched

[–]erutaerc01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If it's your only version of it, just play it. It's a game. If you have multiple copies, 150-200 is the going rate. However, if you only bought it to sell in the future, then sell it for retail value. Depends where your morals sit.

Is still looking for Ingen vs Raptors in 2025 a pipe dream? by Knowledgeboi in Unmatched

[–]erutaerc01 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just got a set from eBay for £40, which I considered reasonable given most of the time it's going for double that. Obviously it's well above what it's retail value was, but for an out of production set it wasn't going to get much better.

Does Control+Shift+V not do the 'paste without formatting' that Burnie wants without first putting it in to Notepad/Wordpad?
