Minimum reserves per the FAR AIM is 30 min for VFR flights and 45 min for IFR rendering the plane utterly useless at this point.

This was years back, I was riding my motorcycle in central Copenhagen when I ended up at a red light with one car in front of me.
On a motorcycle you’re sitting pretty high and quite close to the car in front of you, so you have a pretty good idea if the driver in front of you was picking a bugger or not. He wasn’t...…

That’s great, because it seems that FlightClub (and few other Gawker sub-sites) have been neglected in the past few months... Have you guys had a restructuring going on or what happened?

I don’t like this quiz... I’ll be in my room, pouting in a corner!

How are they doing WiFi on Trans-Atlantic flights, if the current systems are using ground based 3G networks?

Ah, Norway... You crazy vikings!!! No helmets, no roll cage... But at least two airbags!

I already own a Jeep Hurricane (well my kids does) thanks to Power Wheels!

Two more words: Dutch Rudder!

"his funny little open-faced sandwiches aren't worth stealing, anyways"

I had to go to AirNav to check the departure procedures, before I was willing to believe this... Amazing and outrageous at the same time... But mostly amazing!

Couldn't have said it better myself... Hitting Qatar, Hong Kong and Copenhagen this week... Toronto and San Diego (home) in 2 weeks, then Hong Kong again the week after that... And still I'm excited to fly the 787 Dreamliner (for the first time) on Wednesday...
