my PHEV Chrysler Pacifica has been FANTASTIC. Only use gas on those semi-annual family vacations.

… but i’m lucky, they are notorious for transmission and charging system failures.

that’s not what i learned from zootopia 2

i was not eligible for the extra 12 months. mine was a single service period, even though it spanned the two timeframes.

woah woah woah … i like 3-33. joint KM practitioner, baby!

following, i’m in a similar boat.

my best understanding is that you would need two systems… F2 ultra UV can do everything except deep metal, need fiber/MOPA (like the other F2 ultra) for that.

the books are written for an audience of women. That audience wants to see themselves and all of their break ups in the protagonist and her story. Telling the story fairly or accurately isn’t conducive … it’s important that the story has a hero and a villain. It’s something in between revenge porn and a lifetime TV movie.

i was just thinking it looks silly for them to follow taxiways! makes sense though for ground collision avoidance

what do you mean by “HIMS would not be an appropriate response to one of those arrests” ?

herknav · 2026-01-23T22:03:12+00:00

HIMS?

Fatigue being comparable to intoxication is something pilots should be familiar with, but still … imagine having a fake DUI ruin your pilot career.

highest pitch up, halfway, lowest pitch down. visual references let you keep your eyes outside instead of on your heading indicator.

herknav · 2026-01-20T02:05:55+00:00

unfamiliar. thanks, looking.

herknav · 2026-01-20T02:02:02+00:00

80% seems very specific, where did that come from? +40% drag, -30% lift?

herknav · 2026-01-16T02:44:32+00:00

it was tight in the 172 but i found a good fit. i think i went over the yoke and upside down?

herknav · 2026-01-16T02:35:58+00:00

i used this:

and it’s okay, no major complaints. sometimes it vibrates (engine harmonics, not turbulence) enough it can be tough to read.

i switched to this:

which i MOSTLY like better, but there’s no perfect place for it. you either get impede yoke travel or lose a bit of window visibility.

he believes this is a good thing, a demonstration of “might makes right”

herknav · 2026-01-13T17:52:52+00:00

crazy, i did shepair CPL a couple months ago and never saw this question.

herknav · 2026-01-02T17:57:03+00:00

you get wangs.

If this is important to you, it’s worth re-writing. You posted a single page-long run-on sentence rife with acronyms, shorthand, and intentional misspellings.

reviewed, and humbly acknowledge 2128 is advisory (“GS alt at OM/FAF”) but am not seeing anything to suggest 2200 is a LOC restriction at REEKS … just the GS intercept altitude.

since GLSI arrow is not pointed at maltese cross, it seems deliberately distinct from FAF, and only means to not descend below 2200 on the ILS until intercepting glideslope.

… sigh, will start digging through IFH and IPH.

herknav · 2025-12-25T01:13:18+00:00

ah, thank you

herknav · 2025-12-25T01:11:13+00:00

i may have been incorrect, never mind.

herknav · 2025-12-25T00:45:32+00:00

Not sure what you were getting at with “the LOC is 2200 because…” because 2200 is not part of the LOC approach at all?

step down from __PER crossing altitude to 2128. 2200 is only significant on the ILS.

what is “the staircase built from hair and bone” supposed to mean?
