I was considered a late bloomer since I didn’t move to the country until I was 11. I made a new friend who’s dad introduced me to the world of rural responsibilities. I drove my first one-ton, manual transmission truck, and learned how to use it to back a 30-ft trailer, all in one afternoon not long after I turned…

This is a modern take on an old idea. The Schmuzzle Puzzle had 168 identical pieces with a picture on the front and an offset picture of the schmuzzles on the back. The really heinous version had the same image front and back, but rotated 90° to each other.

Forget all these two-car naysayers! A WRX is fast, rugged (rally car!), and works great for car camping with the right accessories!

My first truck was an ‘83 Mazda B2000. If you thought your truck was slow, try cutting the horsepower by 38%.

Swimming at the surface requires buoyancy. Without gravity, there is no pull which gives us that buoyancy. It’s easier to understand when you see bubbles in water in space.

I have been around since the time of AM radios, so I assure you we have similar history. However, you seem to be a bit naive as to the current state of technology.

I’m not sure where you are going with this. It can be very difficult to see where you are going when flying FPV. It would be easy to mistakenly fly into traffic. It’s also easy to get blown off course by high-level winds.

Ungulates? I don’t think so! The creature’s feet are clawed, not hooved.

You forgot the most useful one.

It all depends on your platform!

Nobody flies near other aircraft on purpose, but close proximity flights do happen occasionally. A friend of mine was thermalling when a full-sized glider came into the same thermal. We were all working as spotters to keep the two aircraft apart. The glider pilot waggled his wings when he realized that the “bird” he…

I hear you. Modern aircraft, especially small quadcopters, are really hard to see. I currently fly a DJI Phantom. I can’t believe some bonehead decided that white was a good color for something that is supposed to be visible in the sky! Back in the day, our gliders had a 2-meter wingspan and we always used a dark…

I can’t say how high I’ve flown one since I’ve never had a plane-mounted altimeter. I have specc’d one out, but that was a rare occasion. I never liked flying that high since it was too easy to sneeze and lose sight of the aircraft.

It’s all about the signal range. One guy posted a video where he takes a Skyhunter (plane) out 20 miles with a max height over 7,000 feet.

It’s not necessary to see the aircraft if it is equipped with First Person View (FPV). If flying FPV, the on-board camera transmits everything from the aircraft’s point of view.

There’s absolutely NO reason why the public has the ability to purchase something that can travel over 9,000 feet in altitude 100 mph.

I came here to say this, but you beat me to the punch.

Well, Subaru offers two engine options on the WRX that are only 37 hp apart.

He built his bus collection in one year. That’s what money can do for you!

Leno went to see Fluffy’s garage on last night’s episode. If you didn’t know, Gabriel Iglesias has a thing for VW vans. Here’s the teaser:
