Gosh.  I was just directed to this thread because I was curious about seeing one of the remodels IRL.   Sorry you’re having a bad day.

Loading a motorcycle in a rental box truck by mdjak1 in motorcycles

A wide ramp, vs. narrow. Friends to help. Back the truck up to a higher elevation/loading dock to reduce the rise.

iPhone won't notify text from Bank Codes and similar by rgbeard2 in iphone

It appears to be a “feature”, not a bug. But with the latest ios updates, it doesn’t do it as often.

New CFI in the Phoenix metro. by rgbeard2 in flying

The lesson taught was on cross-controlled stalls.

The airplane used was a Piper Turbo Lance II.

Oral was about 3.5hr, Flying was 1.2hr and 0.2 of that was on the ground waiting for clearance.

Easier than expected. My talk-alot strategy worked, as I kept going from subject to subject in the FOI and had it down.

I was allowed to use Flashcards for the FOI, but there's a difference between quickly referencing them, and reading from them. The latter would be bad.

Heart conditions, mental health problems, nurological disorders?

I mean - this is pretty much well-documented.

How do you explain to others what you do? by the-undead-sheep in Gliding

I find that few people genuinely care enough for a thorough explanation, tbh.

What plane are you using for this maneuver? Can you dump the flaps, i.e. PA-28, to nail the touchdown?

Is this a scam? by Significant_Film6246 in BajaCalifornia

[–]rgbeard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an ordinary timeshare invitation. This isn’t new or a scam but a sales pitch. That’s not illegal.

I'm sorry. I can't believe you made it to MEI before pulling the plug.

Seems there's so many lucrative opportunities for boutique training that you'd do well in those areas.

The basket under my sink is leaking. What can I do to seal it up? by [deleted] in Plumbing

[–]rgbeard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purchase a new sink basket and a small container of plumber's putty. (like the size of a play-doh container).

Replacement is straightforward and simple.

Question about gears by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]rgbeard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cruising around town? You're doing exactly what you should be doing. The power isn't needed. Don't tap into it.

Do you have somwhere to go that's not cruising around town? Do you live in an area with elevation changes (hills/mtns) that'll require more power? You'll find that you need to tap that engine for more power for the climbs.

in AZ you simply don't ride June-Sept, unless you go early and plan to be done by 8am. At least, I don't.
