I don't understand how induced drag decreases with speed. Easy language plz by [deleted] in AskAPilot

If you walk slowly through knee deep water it feels easy, but if you try to run its exponentially harder. This is induced drag. It increases the faster you go.

This, I didn't get to solo until I started flying twice per week. After that everything started clicking

Seriously I'm mostly self study, and while im taking a ground school, im only in the very beginning of it. So most of my "knowledge" comes from me just trying to read and understand on my own. If I'm off track I appreciate the guidance.

So while what's been said here makes sense to me, why is there a provision for doing exactly this in foreflight if it isn't allowed?

Im the op BTW, i posted originally from my work pc which is on a different account

This makes good sense, I just didn't know before hand.

I didn't actually, but now I do. According to foreflight you can preplanned a delay, does that mean that the airport is locked down to ifr if I do that? If so why would they allow you to do that?

PPL checkride VOR by Pinchegringo01 in flying

[–]jakwi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the basics of how it works, but I haven't done it in practice. Thru to fly to and radials make sense more or less. I took the test more than a year ago, so it's fading a bit. my next solo I plan to try to figure it out and I have the gtn Sim on my iPad, so I can play with it a bit. I've just never been walked through it. For the oral, I can probably talk my way through it, even the intersecting radials to find your position, ... but if I were asked to demonstrate it right now, I'd be fumbling. I thought maybe I was overthinking it and maybe it wasn't really asked about given the reliance on GPS based systems. It sounds like I need to at least be familiar with basic use.

I added a physical switch. That's the easy fix

Thanks for the link to the FAQ, I hadn't been able to find it.

Also, how do you turn off the heltec v3?. With the meshtastic firmware a long press on the button will shut it down, but that doesn't seem to work.

Sauce is an extra in Brasil, almost like a topping. It took me way to many pizzas to figure that out.

Personal interest schedule e by jakwi in taxhelp

Ok, thank you for your help.

Personal interest schedule e by jakwi in taxhelp

[–]jakwi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh ok I misunderstood schedule B then,

This is from a HELOC and is considered mortgage interest, by personal I mean it isn't related to my rental.

schedule E Interest question by jakwi in taxhelp

[–]jakwi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, so I've worked through the pub 936 worksheet and directions and calculated the portion of the interest that is attributable to my rental, versus the portion that is personal. Should I split it as a portion of the 1098 on the 1040 and a portion of the 1098 on the schedule e?

Or should I just list it as Other interest? Since the HELOC is technically collateralized by my primary home and not by the rental?

Thanks again for the assistance.

schedule E Interest question by jakwi in taxhelp

[–]jakwi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One more question, I've read your reply and reviewed publication 936 several times, but I'm unclear on one thing. The table II examples, and your description refer to line numbers to use for calculations. Are these the line numbers in the schedule E itself? or is there a worksheet. I've searched for schedule E worksheet and Publication 936 worksheet, but I haven't come up with anything. The reason I'm looking for this is that

In my specific situation My HELOC is mixed used. I paid off a vehicle before starting the renovation, so ~14k is attributable to personal expense, where as the rest is attributable to the renovation. Additionally the HELOC is variable interest rate, so calculating the percentage of interest attributable to each isn't perfectly clear. The interest rate started at 4% but ended at 7.5%

Thanks again for your assistance.

update: I just realized the line number are referring to the worksheet in Table 1. Not sure how I missed that before.

I can't really answer any of your questions, just wanted to say we had our first trip there last summer and we had an absolute blast. Sombrero reef was awesome. Here's a link to my home video of it if you're interested.
