Fun one: Costa Rican addresses are still often relative to a landmark. I used to have a subcontractor there, and his address was something like "500m north of the old church" (whic…

The PR? He said it was AI in the comment you replied to... I don't think the post itself reads like AI at all, but that's just me.

And therein lies the problem. Clearly, having one overworked controller running a combined tower is not safe nor sustainable.

This. Go look at the atc subreddit, controllers have been begging for help for ages. This isn't one guy's fault.

>it's customary to leave a path in the left 'passing lane' for any traffic that wants/needs to go faster than you It's not just customary in many (most?) states, it's the law. Peop…

But the forces are the same all around the bottle (again assuming it is open)

Probably. I do this with a GLinet and it works great.

This is a huge milestone, and everyone at Garmin who worked on Autoland should be patting themselves on the back, they saved some lives today and will undoubtedly save more. Amazin…

That’s not how it works, like at all. Private airports don’t have controllers, and the ones I presume you are thinking of (smaller PUBLIC airports) the controllers are either emplo…

Their support is a literal train wreck

This is literally the worst part of Gemini. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out if, and if so what, they are training on even with my stupid $250/mo subscription. It's total…

I'm sorry but I love it

And when it doesn't (which is often the case behind NAT), you're at the mercy of their relays which are not particularly fast.

Tailscale is slloowwww and I'm not a big fan of someone else controlling my network. Yeah, tailnet lock at all that, I know, but still...

Then you'd really be missing out, because Aging Wheels is awesome

This is really cool and not what I was expecting. Nice work!

You're right, but "slightly older" is on the order of seconds.

In my experience, it's usually lack of awareness about modern security risks, and lack of familiarity with modern infrastructure paradigms. The latter really isn't a problem since …

Is there any API for the US grids? I remember reading an article about this being used in some forensic capacity to determine the date/time a video was taken by comparing the frequ…

It’s a bit more nuanced than that. CFIT is intended to classify accidents where the aircraft itself was not causal. In any other case, it is assumed that there were mechanical or o…

Why would a cell phone even work in a SCIF?

I would argue those days are coming back. Thanks to LLMs, I have probably 10x more "utility" scripts/programs than I had 2 years ago. Rather than bang my head against the wall for …

You could (probably) pull the ADSB data for a "representative" flight on given routes and use that to at least get close - probably would still be useful for things like radiation …

I appreciate the effort here, but I’m still confused. Is my $250/mo “ultra” plan considered personal and still something you train on?
