Depends on the rate of change. If the climb rate was high (as you’d expect in a jet) and the cabin altitude rose too quickly I can see how the rapid change would be painful. 

I fly a King Air so I’m familiar with the process. It’s the rapid rate of change that causes problems, so if the cabin wasn’t pressurizing it wouldn’t be a big issue as they probably held at a lower altitude to sort things out. But if they climbed quickly with the cabin altitude still high I can see now how that would…

It probably took that DC3 a lot longer to get those altitudes than a jet airliner, giving your ears that much more time to equalize.

The lack of pressurization means the pressure *inside* the ear is much higher than outside. The pressure imbalance is going the other way. 

But what about the differential between the cabin and behind the eardrum? As elevation goes up, if cabin doesn’t pressurize as airplane rises, cabin pressure goes down relative to earlier in the flight and ear pressure stays the same.

Don’t buy these deathtraps under any circumstances. They’re unstable, dangerous, and buying one simply funds a fascist oligarch.

The literal one time in history that a Ram driver did anything good for anyone else on the roads.

Folks are unwilling to talk to their neighbors in part because the kind of people who turn their yards into junk yards also tend to be the type of people who are heavily armed and fly gadsen flags.

What’s more, Pineda has since discovered that the footage captured by her car in Sentry Mode has reportedly been wiped from the car’s memory, meaning that no footage of her and Ortega attempting to open the car to rescue the child remains.

This is why you carry a pocket knife with a window breaking tip on it.

Even if the insurance company wouldn’t cover it, they should have immediately chosen to take the hit and pay for it out of pocket.

Seems like a Chain of Evidence problem or something.

AirBnB owners are one of the driving forces of housing market inflation.  Houses are for living, not investments. 

Not the asshole:

mythical robotaxi that is supposed to be coming in about a month.

His rearview mirrors were all broken. (that’s a joke,. he was obviously one of those idiots who NEVER use their rearview mirrors, and that’s no joke)

What happens is the PTO engages while the truck is in motion and the driver doesn’t notice the empty bed slowly rising behind them. There’s supposed to be an interlock to prevent that, but...
