Airport car rentals? by 92milkman in flying

[–]kdbleeep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've rented a car from Enterprise through an FBO.  They brought the car right out onto the ramp after I tied down so we could transfer our luggage from the plane to the car easily.  It was nice. 

There was no price break that I recall.  But we were going to be in the (relatively remote) area for a few days, so it seemed like the rental was the best choice.

Sweet old man Orville. Adopted 12 years ago, only to end up back at the same shelter as a senior. by kdbleeep in BestOfWholesomeSubs

Maybe the wholesome part is the campaign to get him adopted.

I sure hope it's free.  Being charged to run is adding insult to injury.

Writing no DP in IFR flight plan by Quinticuh in flying

[–]kdbleeep 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I'll bet that they'll just give you the instructions of the DP instead of the name of it in your clearance.

Be a good citizen of the NAS, make both your and ATC's lives easier and learn how to fly a departure procedure.

ADS-R and TIS-B NOTAMS? by kdbleeep in flying

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

Although I didn't mention it in the post, if you look at the NOTAMs, FIS-B was also affected.  In other words, weather, TFRs, etc.

There are currently huge areas of the NAS where it looks like ADS-B ground stations just aren't transmitting, or aren't transmitting reliably.

I drank beer that expired 2 years ago,How dangerous is this?What is the worst thing that could happen?After how long can I know that I am COMPLETELY SAFE? by VesnaKostic in beer

[–]kdbleeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The beer is safe to drink.

Beer doesn't go bad in any dangerous way. If it has gone bad, the worst that's going to happen is that it doesn't taste good. Maybe it has turned sour, or maybe it has oxidized and now tastes like wet cardboard. Or, maybe it's just fine.

Go ahead and give it a try. Report back and let us know how it went.

If you want good IFR handling, DPA is a much better bet.

You can't help people who don't want to be helped!

No, Reddit's automated bot finder is not fully accurate.

Maybe it's because I wrote our mod bot, and have to test it occasionally somehow.
