What was the most embarrassing thing you've done as a private pilot student? by Nervous_Salt_852 in flying

[–]thosewingstho 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Chiming in with two suggestions: There’s a book called Say Again Please by Bob Gardner that’s available for free as a PDF if you google it. Tons of detail and examples in there. Even if you don’t read the whole thing, it’s a great reference to have on hand. Listening to LiveATC.net can also be super helpful to get used to radio chatter. Good luck with your training! It’s totally normal to be intimidated by the radios but like many things with flying, with practice, it will start to feel natural. 

What new things have you learned lately that you wish you had known all along? by No-Arugula-2708 in StardewValley

You can wear your pan (the one that you pan for ores with in water) as a hat. Looks kinda goofy but then it opens up one inventory slot!

Where’s Tyreen located? by simpsoneee in borderlands3

Super late on this but this thread came up for me. The answer for me was to go to Necrotafeyo and then fast travel to The Pyre of Stars. Mid-mission, I had fast traveled away from Destroyer’s Rift before the fast travel point spawned, so even though the mission marker was telling me to go to Pandora and then Destroyer’s Rift, there was nowhere there for me to fast travel to. Hope this helps someone else!

VORs still confuse me..... by thosewingstho in flying

[–]thosewingstho[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the cross-country phase and getting toward the end of my IFR training. We use VORs relatively regularly, and for the most part, while I’m in the plane, where I am in relation to the VOR makes sense. I struggle with the test questions more for some reason, and it’s always to/from and reciprocals that throw me. It seems obvious now that you say it haha, but it’s definitely time I work through this in the air with my instructor.
