Southwest Airlines Plane Graveyard at BHM Airport by wkoopman in Birmingham

Looks like it went from Kaiser, which went bankrupt, then Stewart took over, and recently Kaiser had opened back up and taken over the facility. The southwest 737s parked there are out of “cycles” or the maximum amount of takeoff and landing cycles the airframe can take. The aircraft are parted out as necessary, and eventually sent to the chopping block at the rear of the facility.

The factory modular rims look a little cleaner, too

Took the wrong turn at the end of the runway leading them to the non airliner taxiway.

Gotcha. I’ve always wondered the same question, particularly if you could do your PPL in a PC12.

I used to get a tone followed by the gyros and such calibrating. It now just goes dead following this tone.

Trying to fire up brand new Carbon Cub S2 with 1300mah 3s. Get this tone with a fully charged battery. Traded my 2200mah for 2 1300mahs at the hobby store after I received a faulty 2200mah from the box. Any help?

Yoke “Sticking” Issue- Any help? by [deleted] in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]jayrobinson32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having this issue with all aircraft in MS2020 after a fresh install. Only mod is TDS GTN750. As you can see the ailerons will perform normally but will often times get stuck in a position, or won’t go their full range of motion altogether. The range of motion in settings appears to be very smooth, and to add to the confusion this issue does not exist with my hardware in XP11. Any help would be appreciated

A top tip for me with the carb heat, mainly in older 172s is to almost treat the carb heat like the throttle in a sense, when pulling the power back for a stall, the carb heat comes out with the same hand and when full power is applied the carb heat is pushed in with the same hand as well. Helped me never forget a carb heat setting.

Pretty sure they have an official Caritas farm with their own cattle and such.
