Colin McRae did himself in, along with his son, son’s best friend, and the bf’s father. He was not current on his license. Schedule maintenance wasn’t performed. He was also pushing the limits of the helicopter and ran out of air. Basically everything you are not supposed to do, he did.

1. The helicopter pilot if fully aware of the protocols of the airport since half the apron is exclusively used by the company.

We definitely need term limits. Patrick Leahy has been in office since 1975. He’s been in office since before Microsoft Basic was written.

Must be a slow news day.

CMM is overkill for checking flatness.

I would think he would only need it during the race.

I would think he would only use it during the warm up, race, and cool down. So that’s maybe 6 hours. 5 per hour, 1 hit every 12 minutes!

It doesn’t take much to push a skinny gluten free vegan out of the way.

It’s for plowing millennial snowflakes.

I call BS. If you had the $16M in disposable income, you wouldn’t be doing anything yourself. You’d probably pay someone to wipe your ass.

Sure it would be lighter, but it wasn’t design to support the transmission and rear suspension because the F1 engine is a structural member of the car.

I know a guy who spent over $10K on a paint job for his Miata. If I had $14M for a F1, $300k is nothing.

We need to have bomb free safe zones, background checks for bombs, smaller capacity metal pipes...

F1 was designed as a road car with no intentions of ever racing it, until a customer paid the R&D to make it into a race car. But it did have a lot of compromises since they didn’t hit a few of their design goals.

1. Convicted felons are prohibited in owning firearms at the federal level.

Guess the HuffPost doesn’t actually read the bills.

It would be easier just to let cops shoot them like this.

The only way you can truly ban guns is to violate everyone’s 4th amendment rights and go door to door and search and tear apart everyone’s houses for guns. Gun registration has only been around for the last quarter of a century. You used to be able order a Tommy gun from the Sears catalog.

Read the accident report WPR17FA101. The review the data and flight video. He went into a canyon, increased power to climb out, then initiated a 180 degree turn, then crashed. Based on the flight manual, it wouldn’t have been able to climb out of that canyon. 

Running out of air is always a bad thing.
