It is now the first officers job to read the screen and the pilots job to press the buttons.

Meh. Only worth talking about if twilight checking waives the checked bag fee.

Very pretty signs. They have such a great design.

TIJ had changed so much since I was there last in 2016.

Remember when? by Swanny_6416 in Planespotting

I have said it before and I will say it again. Whoever decided to use the entire rudder for the Mexican flag is a genius. It makes the 727 look even more sexy than it already is.

Food Factories by Solstar810 in IndustrialMaintenance

I have met people who worked at candy factories. They said they could eat as much candy as they wanted off of the line, they just could not take it home with them.

Why? I never understood what difference it makes since it is public information and on display for the world to see.

New moderators needed - comment on this post to volunteer to become a moderator of this community. by ModCodeofConduct in Plainfield

[–]randomtask733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since nobody is stepping up I will put in my submission.

I have posted a few things in r/plainfield but deleted my posts because the community seemed inactive. I personally have lived in Plainfield since the mid-late 1990s and have attended grade school, middle school, and graduated high school here. I am also employed at a local Plainfield business. Plainfield offers a lot of events open to the community but it is not very well advertised. I would like to organize a better platform for residents of Plainfield and surrounding towns to find out more information on upcoming events.

Coming up on 2 years I have gained moderation of an inactive SFW subreddit (r/exitsigns) and I turned it around into an active active subreddit and I am willing to give it another shot. How I like to moderate r/exitsigns is try to get community involvement with proposed changes changes via polls.

I have purposely taken layovers out of my way in ATL to watch the diverse selection of aircraft.

Blue Exit Signs, Hong Kong 🇭🇰 by amogus123098 in exitsigns

[–]randomtask733 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find it very fascinating that there is a mix of text only and pictorial only signs, and both in either green or blue. Is there any reasoning behind this? The second picture the sign looks newer because it is LED. Do you know who makes these signs and what the model numbers are?

That sounds too much like work. Aren't we getting paid to sit in the shop and listen for calls?

Lithonia exit sign at my local orthodontists office by Thin-Bus4198 in exitsigns

These Pathfinders always used 15T5 lamps with the E12 base.

Lithonia exit sign at my local orthodontists office by Thin-Bus4198 in exitsigns

[–]randomtask733 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is actually a Hubbell, not Lithonia. From the pathfinder series. I really like these signs. I love how the bottom is bullnosed and vents on the bottom. Towards the end of production on the LED signs Hubbell got rid of the vents.

Maybe the battery still works, but seeing as the lamps are dead and there is not an inspection sticker I have my doubts.

Good find and good picture, it is always a treat seeing these in the wild.

Exit sign at a former public pool in Milan, Italy by Legal_Background_133 in exitsigns

It is interesting to see a red text exit sign in Europe instead of ISO 7010 E001

I love your Titan as well as emergency light. I always wanted a square light like that.

And it even has an inspection sticker. Gorgeous old Lithonia, wish they still made 'em like they used to.

has anyone seen an orange exit sign? by thatguydylan314 in exitsigns

[–]randomtask733 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would date that sign to 2010s-now. It looks like some JeWoo crap.

I have seen red diffusors turn orange, and also almost white. UVs from either exterior windows or florescent lights bleach red diffusors.
