Agreed. The word “poaching” implies ownership of the employee by one company, and the illegal drawing away of that employee by the other company. That might be how companies see it, but employees are free to make their own decision about where they work, and break an employment relationship whenever they want. And…

My first thought is how sad it will be when the warheads from those jettisoned weapons are used in IEDs.

I know “poaching” is the term used for this kind of situation, but leaving one job for another because the other company offered you more sounds like a pretty great plan from a personal point of view. Its not like they were carried away against their wills in spotless white vans or anything. Bummer for the guys left…

in its design, mostly. It’d take waaaay to many taps just to do basic things

Most importantly, it’s now scaled properly if you have an iPhone 6/6s Plus.

Stuck in traffic with this?
Manual?
Put it in 3rd and just clutch-creep. Simple.

Also, if it drops below 50 mph, it will blow up.

I agree about the inflight, but the take off always makes me more nervous than the landing, the take some pretty steep ascents and I always worry about the big metal cigar tube sliding back in a stall. Do agree about the 5% in flight though.

Where pilots make their money:

Since the helicopter was above the Airbus it wouldn’t be affected by any wake or vorticies. the turbulence would be directly behind the Airbus and below it. The wing tips and engine would create the most and the aerodynamics of it make the turbulence sink towards the ground. The plane probably felt the downwash of the…

Wake vortices sink so the chopper was not in danger. Had the Airbus gone over the chopper its wake turbulence could have flipped the helo over. Badness.

Intentionally close or not, I can’t believe there wasn’t serious danger from wake or wingtip vortices or something. Or maybe the helicopter just beat that all into submission with its help from the Dark Lord Lucifer, as usual.

Im a systems enginerd and couldnt agree more. If thats the cutaway, imagine the exploded view.

This diagram is to me the same as someone looking at the source code of a program.

In fairness, if you’ve gotta die, going out coked up in a brothel is probably one of the better ways. Right behind saving your entire family from the wreck of a burning battleship.

Go for a high five.

What do you do when the first thing out of her fathers mouth is “so, you’re the guy fucking my daughter?”

I have a grandfathered unlimited data plan as well, and while I’m not excited about the $20 bump, it’s actually still the cheapest option for me considering the prices of the new plans, without dropping my data usage significantly each month.

“What’s a data plan?”
