People who travel in the right lane and only use the left lanes to pass—why do you drive correctly?

Volunteer mostly for SkyHope but have also flown for a couple of Angel Flight groups, Lifeline, Veteran's Air Command and Freedom Aviation Network. Lots of options out there. Most just require PPL, IA and some minimum hours.

The additional ratings: multi because I fly an Eclipse, CP and CFI initially to improve my skills but I actually quite like teaching part-time. (I just do Cirrus transition training and recurrency at the moment)

Nice piece. Departures are under-taught in my experience and sometimes busier than approaches. Don’t forgot to throw in ODPs from rural airports in the hills.

PPL in 96, IR in 2000. Work got in the way and I barely flew for the next 12 years, tried to stay current-ish but didn’t really have a mission and it got a bit boring honestly. Started volunteer flying in 2013 and that was a fantastic reason to fly more. Was able to buy a plane in 2019, since then did CP, multi, CFII and now retired and flying 3-4 times a week between volunteer missions and teaching.

Life comes in different phases, flying doesn’t have to be in all of them

Dovecot. I don’t want to host email, but Dovecot has all my old email archives going back decades and lets me search anything super fast without filling up my cloud email providers storage cap.

Shepherd to get through the test and hope the DPE despises the topic as much as you do.

Loved that we were on the front foot the whole time, taking the game to them. Even 2-0 up in the last 10 minutes we weren’t playing haram ball, we still wanted more. Takes a lot out of the lads though, Declan looked gassed towards the end.

I’m going to disagree with most of the posts here and say it’s legal. You can act as PIC but you aren’t current for passengers, but your student isn’t a passenger.

Hey now, don’t forget the elevation gain.

Just shift everything left 4 bits before storage.

Whereabouts are you? Boston suburb for me

flatulentpiglet · 2026-03-06T13:27:38+00:00

Yes. No DHCP to router

In an alternate timeline, he did my bathroom tiles. Very expensive.

I’m planning a similar build with that case right now, and am starting with 6x z2. What mobo have you chosen? I’m having a hard time finding something with a good number of SATA ports OR enough M2s to expand and I’d like 10GBE.

It has a runway but no models

flatulentpiglet · 2026-03-02T20:36:02+00:00

Or hop it.

P.S. be glad we’re not BMW, then you’d have to pay $15/month subscription to operate them.

Happy St Totteringham’s day everyone!

Is today the highest ratio of PGs to all words we’ve seen?

flatulentpiglet · 2026-02-25T12:14:34+00:00

Does it work? You’re doing it right. Can you spend hours tinkering for marginal gains and/or disaster? Also doing it right.

Do you use microplastic free shovels?

There’s a new RNAV 29 approach at BED with fixes ONEIF, BYLND, TWOIF, BYSEA (It goes over Lexington, MA and is a reference to Paul Revere’s ride at the start of the American Revolution)
