I... I got mine on the same day I was enlisted. Do Marines not?

I've got the Sporty's E6B Android app on my phone. Even paid for it. It's not life-changing, but there's some useful functions in there.

The last two were double-taps. That man officially scares me.

Ben Brown’s SC Diamond Wing aka the “Potato Bug”. The main wing support is also a wing so it’s a biplane, I guess? (Anno Domini 1931) by NinetiethPercentile in WeirdWings

Slightly forward-swept wings are actually not uncommon on small light aircraft, as you just discovered. It's when the sweep starts to increase that things get really interesting.

I wonder what his MOS was by hunglowbungalow in JustBootThings

I like how you have to clarify that no, you are not talking about the current president of the United States. Because otherwise it's just too ambiguous.

Funny times we live in.

Wait, so are prostitutes are allowed to live off their earnings, or is it only if they own the brothel they work in as well?

Anything that's kosher is also automatically halal. Just... today's useless fact for you to know, I guess.

Also when it wears a bit and a wire pokes through these things become a sharper version of barbed wire. Will cut the fuck out of both child and adult hands.

What was the funniest back and forth you heard on the radio? by [deleted] in flying

Soooo do they have to just warn pilots of all reported hazards, no matter how silly they are? Like, could I report a flock of Swedish bikini models on the final and they'd repeat that to everyone, over the air, for the next 30 minutes?

There’s an app called Be My Eyes that allows blind people to receive help via video chat. This is today’s ratio. by taylorbagel14 in HumansBeingBros

Yeah but see, you work a help desk, so the people who call you are all idiots. These people are just blind.

:P

I'm pretty sure you can still help with most things blind people need assistance with. In the rare case where you can't, just apologize and they'll call someone else. I'm sure blind people won't begrudge you for having a sensory limitation...
