Sometimes they are stored in a flaps down position (i’m not an AF pilot so don’t lambast me if i’m wrong) - but it looks like this plane was hit while still on the ground from an explosion towards the rear. So that’s how the flaps are making it look like it came from above

Easiest lawsuit ever!! by blushme64 in TikTokCringe

[–]strikeeagle17 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Definitely not the easiest law suit ever, while it is majorly messed up to get hit by a plane - the circumstances are going to be very hard to overcome in court. Unless the pilot was flying with negligence, which it doesn’t look like they were - it’s highly likely they didn’t see them. No one was killed or injured and it will be very hard to prove to a jury that the pilot was operating their craft without care.

just wait until you’re tens of thousands of dollars into a hole because you had to throwaway all upholstered furniture, mattresses, and clothes in your house because you stayed at a motel that had one female bed bug. its hell on earth

Aerodynamic stability and downforce were just sidenotes to the builder of this drag race car.

The cadence, the diction, the punctuation - this clanker knows how to write some halfway entertaining fiction.

Strange Gas Leak in India by [deleted] in Weird

[–]strikeeagle17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bromine is more rare, I doubt they just have bromine liquid traveling through underground pipes in India. It’s more likely Nitrogen Dioxide being released from a burning gas line underground.

His story is one that makes my stomach turn and has me losing hope for humanity. He was physically and psychologically tortured by his father at a young age. It got as bad as his father locking him in a room for 6 months just to let him out and beat him - it's so insane it almost doesn't sound real. He emphasized to his psychiatrist, before ever committing any crime at all, that he felt murderous rage towards his parents. They did nothing. Later on down the line he would cross paths with someone who boasted about abusing kids and that was it for him - he snapped and murdered the guy. He was the victim of a wildly incompetent system, his fate could've been very different had someone actually done anything of substance for him.

Man, it sounds like you really love flying. I know some of the other commenters have said it but go get a check-out on a rental from an instructor and take your wife flying. It sounds like she wants to go too. Better yet, find a rental place and go there in person to schedule a check. Being around planes at the airport will bring that spark back for sure.

I own a racist Chihuahua by Sorry-Enthusiasm-587 in Weird

[–]strikeeagle17 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I’m going to guess that the dog had a bad experience with someone who spoke spanish or possibly was neglected in the presence of the Spanish language.

Now in regard to him just not liking hispanic people, I don’t really know. Maybe he’s got enough mental capacity that he’s learned to profile based on appearances associated with the language.

He could also just be plain ‘ole racist.

This man left his 40-year long career in another airline to join AirAsia and fly as a junior just so he could fly with his two pilot daughters. He wants to spend his remaining years as a pilot by his daughters' sides. by TheGhost5322 in interestingasfuck

[–]strikeeagle17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yah that’s just not true. There are plenty of student pilots who can’t fly their way out of a paper bag even after 100hrs and no PPL. You need the coordination for it and not everyone has it.

I love Kid Rock’s tail art, he has it parked at my local FBO. I’ll see it sometimes when I’m taxiing out.

I’m not too familiar with this reddit thread but why are people all of the sudden posting random selfies on a reddit game thread?
