If he’s crabbing, then he’s doing it wrong. Light aircraft gear is not constructed to take the side-load impact on landing. Instead, you’re taught a technique called side slip, where you apply opposite aileron and rudder to keep the nose straight while adjusting for crosswind on final.

It really doesn’t look that extreme to me, but all input by the pilot is done by “butt-feeling” and the only instrument really monitored at this point is the airspeed indicator.

Well, that, and Newton’s 3rd law...

I don’t know abut Haas as an option .. K-Mag seems to have more nuts than avocados between his legs!

I’ve rented cars all over the world with my regular California drivers license, just like I’ve rented cars in the US with my Danish Issued drivers license... Both countries issues the same type hand written International drivers permit btw.

No, They are owned by Sheldon Adelson (Owner of The Venetian and Palazzo).

We took off about two hours after the accident and the 777 was still sitting on 7L between taxiway A7 and A8, which means that the fire occurred right at the beginning of the takeoff roll. Couldn’t take any pictures as I had to fly the aircraft but both port and starboard side looked charred from the fire.

We took off around 6:45 PM from McCarren and the 777 was still sitting on runway 7L between taxiway A7 and A8. I wasn’t able to take pictures as I was flying the plane, but the fuselage looked charred but intact.

Hey Collin,

They should have left the commentary out... Totally killed it for me!

I just bought Sled Driver a couple of weeks ago on Ebay. $225 was a tall order but worth every penny!

Me too... :-) Next on my list is the Panerai Luminor Marina 1950.

Did the exact same thing but more like 11 years ago... Make sure to put money aside for upkeep, it’s not cheap. I just put my 4th strap on it at $385 a pop and I’ve never slept with my watch or had it anywhere near water... Service is also necessary every 4 - 5 years. I paid $700 last time but I also had the Plexiglas…

The blue one? I like that one a lot... I just have the normal black Calibre 12 with alligator strap.

I have his watch... well not his, but just one like it...

I just bought a 2001 BMW M3 Convertible with 100K miles in silver for $9,000!

I thought all US pilots were officers?

Because of the lower center of gravity, the wing also needs to be less dihedral, which requires less structural strenght = less weight.

Try 9500 Density altitude with 100 Lbs overweight and 40 knots cross wind in a 172... Not something I’m keen to try again!
