bfd - don't care how "great" some people that is.  It has nothing to do with aviation/gliding/flying.  No production value.

I don’t know what to tell you if you don’t like Pink Floyd. I see your point about the serenity of just quiet glider noise although I didn’t mind the music in this video.

That engine had experienced a lot of recent work, and probably wasn't developing full power. Ive read he took the whole runway for takeoff and wasn't climbing.  How long do you wait when things aren't looking right?

We could probably all use a refresher in picking an abort point when we take off. I certainly will.

NTSB preliminary is out - https://data.ntsb.gov/carol-repgen/api/Aviation/ReportMain/GenerateNewestReport/103838/pdf

Appears to be a failed turn back maneuver with an engine not developing full power. Prior oil analysis had indicated potential issues with the engine and ring wear.

My takeaway is don’t try the turnback unless you are high enough and have practiced this maneuver and know you can make it. Safer to land it nearly straight ahead if in doubt.

That’s what I was always taught.

  Well well well.............look who's talking.........

  Your hatred of a member on another forum brought you here so you could continue to attack him and discredit him.   And since we aren't your beloved cancel culture/ban hammer types your feelings are hurt.

  Go look in the mirror.

Thank you.

But welcome hummingbird!   

Thanks Peter.  I am also a 2A advocate and active in my Commonwealth's 2A advocacy group.  You're move took a lot of guts.  If we lose our remaining gun rights we are doomed.

The federal branch hates crypto currency for the same reason their masters in china hate it.

It gives more privacy and control to people instead of the government.

That's all there is to it.

The fucking chinese hate personal freedom almost as much as the democrats do.

Sounds like the feds are trying to use the uncertain status of crypto (because it’s so new) to pursue more ways to get rich by civil asset forfeiture.

Peter, I admire your conviction!

Well, he wasn't convicted. 

Peter, you are clearly a troublemaker.
Love it!
