This pic was share with me by the boomer. Taken over the Caldor fire in 2021 Thought it was an amazing pic and had to share!

Hi! sometimes i post videos flying in a helicopter on youtube, if u wanna watch me fly and see cool skies etc u should really give it a try: Marlboro Piloto

Hi! I have no knowledge on airplanes and flying etc and I genuinely wonder how do airplanes not collide or meet with other airplanes in the air? Is there a radar that tells the pilots the feet difference between them and the incoming plane?

Stopped by the Wright Brothers National Museum while traveling by Dayton. Pretty cool history that before Orville died, in the 1940s he went back to where his North Carolina hangar was and recollected pieces of the aircraft from the locals. Then went to Massachusetts to collect the other parts that somehow ended up there (I forget how). It is said about 80% of the aircraft is original. Pretty incredible.

Mostly from a passenger but also a pilot’s perspective. I’ve been on the turboprops and found them about the same but wondering which I should go with for jets and if there’s anything I should know about them

I'm writing a story that I'd like to set on a plane but I'm trying not to fall into too many of the common mistakes that happen with stories set on planes.

I want the plane to be sparsely populated but I'm struggling to justify why a big-ass plane would fly with not many passengers. I've been on sparsely populated planes before but never a wide-body.

the smallest plane i know of would be the skyvan but are there any others aside the skyvan or sherpa?

Didn’t know AA branded flights still used these.

I don't want to clutter this subject with non-aviation information - but the reason im asking about this is that in a discussion with a relative about how Apple carplay in my car doesn't allow multi-touch, this relative of mine said it was a safety thing. Because you see, "they" don't let multi-touch LCD in cockpits because touch and drag and multi-touch make you look at the screen more than buttons

Ok. Well that doesn't automatically pass the smell test to me. I think im less safe when im pecking around for buttons in a car touch screen. I think the rules about connecting your phone and installing apps directly to a car are likely a VERY different regulatory animal than a purpose built screen that doesn't load random apple apps in to a $100,000 airplane. But maybe he's right?

Instead of arguing, i thought i'd just ask about it. Can any one tell me if any part of this claim about multi-touch lcd screens in planes being unsafe, and thus not allowed, is true?

Picture I got of an USAF UH-1 conducting touch and gos (is that the right name for helicopters?)

Does anyone know of a book/movie describing the first interaction between the P-51 bomber escorts and Luftwaffe? I’m wondering if the Luftwaffe were surprised by the escorts still being present with the bombers over Germany.
