Spin Zone / Re: My God, Did POA Just Become as Boring as AOPA?
« on: January 01, 2016, 09:53:53 AM »
The sad part is that POA was created when the AOPA board was pulled, and then when it came back only aviation topics were allowed. The intent of POA was to allow non-aviation topics for pilots to discuss, including POLITICS. Thus POA has gone against its original purpose due to caving to a few liberals that complained. I will continue to post on POA because I have so many friends there, but it won't be the same.

Spin Zone / Re: Twenty-Six states Refuse Syrian"Refugees"
« on: November 20, 2015, 10:52:33 AM »Exactly! People seem to forget all the refugee camps over the last decades. I think it telling that devote Muslims can't accept other Muslims into their midst. It's all about tribalism. Their tribes trump their religion.
Yep. Hence the problems in Iraq. Tribes. The Arab states are European drawn falacies. Borders don't matter as much as tribes.

In addition to the stupid degrees, kids are taking six years to complete college. I don't understand. It used to be four and out!

Spin Zone / Re: Ruling: Transgender "Girl" Must Use Girls' Locker Room or Lose Title IX Funding
« on: November 04, 2015, 08:45:02 AM »Bingo. Boomers want to be "friends" with Millennials instead of "parents" or "responsible adults", so they indulge them with this wacko shit that is doing nothing but further dividing society.
Yes, we are intentionally being further, and further divided so their is no consensus, and therefore politicians/government can control us better because their is NO UNIFIED RESISTANCE nor accountability. Identity politics is ruining a once great nation. We are all at odds with one another thanks to government, education, and the media. The great triumvirate of evil.

« on: November 03, 2015, 10:55:26 AM »Yeah, but the media loves him/her as their agenda is to mainstream the LBGT community, and lifestyle.
Exactly, and it makes me vomit. That said, Obama putting the rainbow colors on the white house after the SCOTUS ruling was despicable.
Yes, the Rainbow White House was a celebration for 1% of Americans, and insulted probably 75% or more. Obama is an anti-American despot.

Pilot Zone / Re: What type of Plane for this Mission
« on: November 02, 2015, 09:27:50 AM »
If it were just me flying by myself, I'd probably look for a Grumman AA1/A, B, or C. Inexpensive to operate, and a few knots faster than similarly powered trainers. They are a blast to fly, also and have nice handling characteristics.

Amazing isn't it? Man Made Global Climate Change is the biggest hoax ever. Governments, and politicians figured out that just taxing people more may be unpopular so they thought up a "good" reason to confiscate even more money from the productive. Let's SAVE THE PLANET! Then they got a bunch of useful idiots to believe in this goofy religion.

Pilot Zone / Re: Planes are really cool
« on: October 30, 2015, 12:08:19 PM »I agree with what you said, but the question was specific to Grumman flying. I've heard that it can get away from you as it's not a fly by feel airplane. Or maybe I have been misinformed???
Tigers, Cheetahs, and Travelers are docile airplanes although they do have better control response, and are lighter on the controls. Tigers and Cheetahs are pretty slick for a fixed gear plane, so will float if you come in hot. If you don't display good speed control, and try to force it down onto the runway you can get into pilot induce oscillation. The cure to that is to just hold it off if you have enough runway, or just go around.
The two seat AA1 (original slick wing) demand speed control also, and you don't want to get behind the power curve on these low, and slow as they will break pretty quickly, without too much warning. The later AA1A, AA1B, and AA1C have a different wing but still require discpline in speed control, but give you a bit more margin. They don't "get away from you" unless you either don't have training in them or just not flying them properly, but they are not any more dangerous than other planes if you fly them like they should be flown, and learning that is not difficult.

« on: October 28, 2015, 01:05:17 PM »Oh man, this is hilarious.QuoteThe pundit asked the vendor why the shirt cost $20 when it couldn’t have been more than $6 to make it.
The vendor replied by telling Elder that he had to “make profit.”
And these economic geniuses are supporting Bernie Sanders.
To these politicians, profits are evil, but they still take corporate money, and certainly become rich while in office, and then afterwards. Do as I say, not as I do. I'd like to see Bernie pay 90% of his income in income tax. The remaing 10% can be used to pay all the other taxes we owe. Oh wait, that wouldn't be enough.
