They were descending at 4000ft/min, and 400ft is like 10% of 4000ft.

We are not talking length, but height. But since you want to talk length, the wing span is around 117 feet, which means they were 3 wingspans and 50ft from splashing.

I can’t tell if you're being serious or this is some weird sarcasm/joke I’m not in on

Motherfuckers. Dirt bags. I had a $1,800 Miyata Ridge Runner Team stolen out of my vehicle in fucking Santa Ana CA in the very late 80s. I loved that bike. It was a super short stop and everything was locked up tight. Didn’t matter. Smashed my windows. Motherfuckers.

Why in the world would you spend used car money on a bicycle? Just buy a car at that point!

SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS for a used car?!? why in the world would you spend new-car-down-payment money on a used car? you can get a perfectly fine used car for like $2000!

How American of you.

They used to hang horse thieves.

Woof. That’s a big question. I think at some point if you have the right fundamentals on a bike then it just becomes a matter of marginal gains with price increase (some wide margins, some narrow), but riding and trail style factors in as well.

For example, if you’re willing to spend around $1k on a new hardtail mountai…

Better parts, hopefully better geometry, less weight, better components, less friction in the parts, and nicer materials.

What a stupid take. You know what else can shorten your race car driving season / career / life? Racing a car.

Riding bicycles is incredibly fucking dangerous

Are you serious?

This bookself is RIGGED! The democrats have WEAPONIZED “IKEA” against me.

Don’t forget when he mocked McCain for “getting caught” and saying it didn’t count as fighting in a war. It must take a lot of time and energy to pretend you think Felony Cheeto gives any shits about anyone who serves/served this country.

Queen Elizabeth worked as a heavy vehicle mechanic during WWII. She signed up at 18 as soon as she was able despite the King’s wishes. She was a hard workers and wanted to do her part in real work to help the war.

Even among sovereign citizens, that’s a special kind of stupid.

Having too much oil in the engine can leading to the crankshaft whipping the oil into a froth and thereby reducing its lubricating capacity. This is more problematic on some engines versus others.

Ramp crew jobs suck, but jet engines suck harder. 

I highly suspect it has been happening for decades, but now we have the internet and 24/7 news cycle so it’s easier to find out about stuff like this. I suspect pre internet something like this was only reported locally, in this case in the Netherlands.
