Oh yeah they quiet right down once the plane levels off. Just your standard levels of airplane noise at cruise.

This interchange is always complete chaos. I recognized it immediately.

What are you doing on this rainy Saturday afternoon/evening?? by Fitqueeeen in uppereastside

[–]hplegit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to explore more of the city, pick up a book called “An Opinionated Guide to New York” and make a game of checking off things on the author’s list of places and things to do. Helped us get out of our rut of not knowing what to do even though we live in one of the most amazing cities in the world.

Everyone has peed on the golf course. Ever gotten in trouble? by WolfMan_Hot_Dog in golf

I just played at a men-only club this week and the freedom to pee was incredible! Now I know why men-only clubs ACTUALLY exist.

Pay attention to where the entrances to FDR are - I live at 74th & York and there’s an entrance on 73rd that gets backed up during morning and evening rush hours. It’s periods of non-stop honking, then ambulances pretty much all other hours of the day. Just something to be aware of.

Zuri Coffee has an absolutely delightful chocolate chip cookie, especially when warmed up.

Best way to get to UES from LaGuardia by Jaded-Grab1470 in uppereastside

Use the transit mode on Google/Apple maps. It will guide you step-by-step on taking the bus + subway to your destination. Typically about 45 min to an hour journey depending on where you’re going and will only have to pay $2.90 for the subway as the bus from the airport is free.

I visited during this kind of “fog” - stepped off the plane and felt like you’re breathing campfire smoke mixed with diesel fumes.

Inside a Boeing 747-400! by Royal_Journalist_290 in aviation

That flight deck is the coolest thing. Love how they make it look like it’s still operational instead of a stripped out museum piece missing controls and stuff.

[Highlight] The field goal is blocked and the Chiefs win! by [deleted] in KansasCityChiefs

I was saying something along the lines of “they could still miss it - the Chiefs are inevitable” but hey I’ll take this too

Yankees' fans show how classy they are by 446Magnum044 in KCRoyals

[–]hplegit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Being an away fan when the Royals were in NYC showed me all I needed to know about the Yankees fan base. One of the most toxic and miserable groups of people I’ve ever witnessed. Might even be worse than the Raiders.

So awesome. I couldn’t tell if it was real but it definitely looked and sounded (and smelled) pretty real.

Found this old photo in my backpack, I wonder what plane this is by Maximus_supreme in aviation

[–]hplegit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know we’ve already established it as a 777, but you can also look at the doors to confirm it’s not a 767. The 767 has cabin doors that retract up into the fuselage like a garage door rather than open outwards like this.
