I heard this before and do not understand it. Is the FIA completely against stopping to refuel, just tires? They want real world technology trickle down and swapping cars is not it. A fast swap battery sounds extremely simple - slide out/slide in. If they swapped the battery they would pushing the technology of…

I assumed it was Pippa who was making the posts. My bad.

Hmm, that's kind of cool but I also think his car names are dumb. Thanks for keeping score though, sis.

The model from the article looks like it's supposed to catch the clippings too, which is bad. If you let the clippings break down into the lawn it's the equivalent of about a 40lb bag of fertilizer/yr that you're putting back into the lawn for a 1000 sq ft lawn.

I think the staysharp design is the ability to adjust the blades so they don't come in contact with the other half of the "scissors" that the mower cuts with. You need to adjust it so it works like scissors and the blades don't bang into each other. It's a tiny pain because you need the right size wrenches and can't…

You picked a bad name for a dude, sister.

So the first step to this is... Liking Infiniti on FB?

I hope your fresh water sushi fish, including salmon, have been frozen.

So that's why people die of natural causes - their liver and kidneys have accumulated such an ungodly load of toxins and horrible crap they die. Livers and kidneys are not Brita filters that are holding tanks for crap.

Cool! In related news my boss made an underwater statue of his favorite employee this morning.

Oh, really?

Jeez! What does a master scientific glassware maker do for fun? Srsly.

So a Star Trek teleporter or replicator even.

It looked like the pilot? in the left seat mentioned he should do something.

After re-watching the NTSB video the Tower controller actually said they were 7 miles out when they were actually 5. That's weird. At any rate they f'd up a lot and didn't want to admit defeat and I don't know if there's a cultural side to the situation in the cockpit but just having an evaluator watching probably…

Approach mode isn't available when the approach itself isn't available.

So do actually believe the people you "turned loose" had a "full understanding of every function" you trained them in? People are not robots and if they get certified it doesn't mean jack. We live in the real world not a theoretical one of wishful thinking and pipe dreams. If you're not going to stay realistic about…

Hooray!

I agree, like most accidents, it comes down to pilot error. But you are also correct in that ATC played a factor in that they requested 180 knots to 5 miles. An interesting thing from the video recreation was that the pilots reported approx 7 miles but they were actually 5 miles which was what ATC wanted for their…

Coming from a person who I assume never makes a mistake. Your ignorance of human factors and the inner workings of aviation training and certification is not unexpected. Naïvety is an acceptable excuse.
