Great until the winter. Then the volatile components evaporate out of the nozzles and the remaining water freezes but, unlike the ones closer to the ENGINE, which get some hot air blown over them when the engine warms up, these are high enough they may never thaw out.

The pilot screwed up the approach. He screwed up the decision to abandon the approach. He screwed up the nose gear on a jet that had to return to the gate with possibly hundreds of pissed off passengers delayed for a day or more. And he damaged his own plane.

$9M and all he gets is a tender for Bezos’s boat.

There’s no gamble from the customers - they need to refuse any material that was delivered on a hot day that doesn’t have an indicator to show it’s been kept out of the heat.

It would be interesting to put an hour meter on the compressor clutch to get an idea of how long they are running before they fail.

He had 40 years in and was soundly trounced by his opponent, Christina Corpus, earlier this year. I can’t tell when he…

Progress payments. At various stages there is an amount due to compensate for that work before further work is started. Stop paying for progress and the builder stops progressing. The whiner was 8 months behind on payments so he’s now at the back of the line to those who aren’t 8 months behind. Paying up only meant…

It’s being charged in California.

This is Germany. They are very practical about nudity and don’t need changing rooms to get into their street clothes. Strip, dry off, and get dressed, and go.
