What’s palm oil?

A relative of hand lotion, probably.

It'll make your engine run silky smooth, and reduce visible wrinkles!

Dan Gryder seems to have stolen the warning light from the stack?

Did he blame it on the NTSB?

Oh c'mon now, reconfiguring landing gear can't be that hard - these guys seem to have figured it out:

Sorely missing from the article is information on what actually “powers” the bacteria

AAAAAAAA batteries*?

NTSB report apparently is out on the Caravan that crashed in Burley IA a while back. Our speakist Juan has an interesting theory on a partial cause of the accident: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWCkzJEpcnw Report (PDF): https://data.ntsb.gov/carol-repgen/api/Aviation/ReportMain/GenerateNewestRepo...

Yeah but they were flying a 767... how bad could it be?

I think the "by the book" answer for airliners is very simple: if you bounce, you go around. Period. I think "experts" recommend the same philosophy for light planes, but I'm pretty sure early in my training my instructor guiding me on recovering from a bounced landing, and the r...

2) Your helmet strap is loose. This thread is titled checklist, procedures, rules for God's sake!

I suspect in that individual's case, the helmet strap is unnecessary... the helmet is kept firmly in place by his animal magnetism.

Has anyone here seen this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtL60wk4gys I watched it (just the pilot, and yes what a pun that is) and while it wasn't awful, I'm having trouble understanding why people seem to love it so much (7.0 on IMDB). Someone in the comments praised it for its "technical ac...

I said to someone once that it's a sure sign you're getting old when people you consider to be your peers start dying of age-associated things like heart attacks and strokes. I'm definitely getting old...

Dammit, something was violated!

Excuse my excitement , given the inherent dangers of going around , underslung engines , somatogravic illusions , fatal software flaws and pilot stupidity I thought I was going to witness an amazing TOTAL AIR DISASTER!!!! And... did you notice where most of the participants in the video were standi...

Livestream from EGLL, probably best when it's daytime there.

The intarwebz seem to think the camera is AI-controlled. That, or there's an incredibly patient and accurate human operator.

That's the brake cooling FlyBoyie has been asking for

It's actually doubly useful as when the plane is hydroplaning, heating of the brakes is greatly reduced.

Looks like a really bad idea but... is it?

Hmm... looks like someone built a Dash 7 before the Dash 7.

Do they know that cars have had disc brakes for about half a century?
