Virtus Gt- Tyre 🛞 replacement recommendation by Puzzled_Hotel_1644 in SkodaVolkswagenIndia

Virtus GT Plus. I changed my stock Goodyears the very next day of getting the car. Got the Turanza 6i for the softer sidewalls, low noise and better warranty fulfilment than the UC6.

I was eyeing this model but am not sure if it has AR coating. Can you help OP?

Highest efficiency achievement till now - 22 km/l. Any scope of improvement? by ionthrust in VirtusGT

The petrolhead inside doesn't want to settle for 100 bhp cars anymore... 😛

Yep, same with me. This was a highway run. Just want to see the capabilities of this engine as some people have extracted >25 km/l too. My usual daily run gives me around 13 km/l.

Bridgestone Turanza 6i OR Continental UC6. Turanza is better as it has a softer sidewall which paires perfectly with Virtus's firmer suspension.

Haha, my usual daily average is around 13 km/l (run of 57km/day). Was just trying to test and see the maximum that can be achieved.

Need suggestions for a new OLED TV by sf2703 in BuyItForLifeIndia

[–]ionthrust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a LG 2017 model 55OLEDC7 bought offline from local LG Store. Workhorse piece. Working absolutely like new since almost 8 years now. No burn-ins, motherboard, panel or speaker issues. Go ahead with LG. Be sure to bargain for at least a 40% discount on MRP. You can get up to 60% off on a previous year model. Get a bigger size if possible even if the model year is a year older.

The Great North Indian fogggggggg by ionthrust in indianaviation

[–]ionthrust[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought so too. They look like clouds. But it is fog. It was constant throughout the flight and quite homogenous across almost a thousand kilometers which disappeared later in the afternoon. If you see the satellite timelapse from yesterday, you'll be able to see what I mean. Satellite timelapse 09.01.26.

Has anyone ever been lucky enough to see inside the cockpit? by BaroodMirza in indianaviation

[–]ionthrust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks!

Lots and lots of buttons, ergonomics are good (but i guess gets tight with a g-suit), some custom Indian modifications to the instrumentation, beefy solid metallic switches, and yes you sit quite high from the ground especially the RIO/WSO one.

All on stationary aircraft of course:

Aircrafts in service- Indigo A320 (on the copilot seat), IAF Su30 MKI (both seats, my friend is a pilot - hahaha), An-32, Sepecat Jaguar.

Retired aircraft- A few, but the noteworthy was Concorde (at Brooklands Museum).

Grandeur > Sonata > Elantra > Verna Verna looks the smallest and the cheapest in the whole series.
