He was really on a roll there for a second

Except the devil; he’s into advocates.
According to the larger report in The Verge the loading at each corner was carefully analyzed and these wheels designed to provide better ride and handling.
Here’s a pic of David Tracy driving a Cherokee down a country road at night:
I think is fitting that Boeing is putting airplanes in a parking lot, after all VW is parking their recalled diesels in an airplane boneyard:
Only in some cases. Several European countries have closed their airspace to Max aircraft period. No ferry flights even.
The decision is not too confusing if you take a close look at it:
They tried to use a law that didn’t exist when the original Beetle was designed, and the used a patent to argue a copyright case, which are different things.
Any Airforce plane. If it is a civilian plane it is Executive One; a Coast Guard plane would be Coast Guard One; a Navy Plane would be Navy One (not to be confused with Marine One for any Marine Corps aircraft), and you’ll never guess what they’d call it if the President was in an Army aircraft.
Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.
The Broken Windows theory applies to cars too. Once you let little things go, things go downhill at an very quick pace. If you stay on top of repairs and maintenance, you end up with a car with 200k miles that looks brand new. If you neglect small stuff and let it snowball, soon you are selling your car for scrap with…
neat things about our sport, is those guys’ ability to outfox Johnny Law.
Another nerd reference that says the only way to win is to cheat is the good old Kobayashi Maru.
Driving shitbox Jeeps is the perfect way to avoid step 1!
Step 1 to a 13mo old son is meeting a girl. If step 1 has not been completed, you don’t have a son.
In addition to that, you should expect to see either a diesel and/or a power car on every excursion this locomotive runs. Because this locomotive was designed purely to haul freight trains, it’s highly unlikely it’ll have Head End Power (HEP) to power lights, AC, etc. for excursions.
Pretty simple actually - a dynamometer car is coupled directly behind the locomotive, and it measures the force transmitted by the locomotive through the coupler/draft gear, along with the speed. Force X Speed = Horsepower
Cool as all get out. My son was a bit of a train freak when he was young (and it rubbed off on me a bit). I took him to see a 3900 series Challenger loco (Boy Boy’s slightly smaller predecessor) as it meandered its way across the country - that was seriously friggin’ impressive, I can only imagine what the Big Boy is…
It burns #5 oil now.
