The KC46 program was superior to Airbus' offering in every way and I'm glad we went with that airframe.

You've been kidnapped
Your kidnappers allow you keep posting on social media to pretend everything is alright.
What would you post that would alarm your followers, without the kidnappers knowing you're asking for help?

I was just wondering because there was this DUI stop where I was like "Man if I were on that jury I wouldn't even need to see the SFSTs to know she was in no shape to operate a motor vehicle after seeing that footage."

It's a term applied by railroaders to particularly obsessed railfans, I think it comes from "foaming at the mouth" when they see a rare/unusual piece of rail equipment.

These guys were talking smack about furries because a couple of suiters were also filming trains at their spot.

Hey @thatbloodypinko.bsky.social I had a question. Been watching this channel on YouTube where they ride along with and film LEOs doing their thing and I was wondering. Is the footage they collect admissible/subpoenable as evidence? Can the film crew be called as witnesses?

A bunch of foamers hating on furries for being cringe is a special kind of irony.

Having worked in both the public safety and aviation sectors, aviation is much better standardized, even if the French still insist on talking in French.

One of the things I miss about California. You can just take a sick day and go to the beach. No one will stop you.

As a former firefighter, that combined with the crack at your foot there is more than slightly unsettling.

I wrote a 10,000 word essay on humane predator control methods the night before it was due and got a 100 on it. The professor liked it so much he used it as an example to future classes.

I've had the exact same setup since I moved in, and it was never a problem. But somehow it's my fault :/

Trying to convince my neighbor that my "fancy toys" (An ISP issued router and Echo Dot) aren't messing with her TV antenna and it's because we live 60 miles from where the TV stations are that she's getting shitty reception.

When sheps and yotes get together, one of two things happens.

Either the shep's herding instincts kick in and they constantly have to keep the coyote from doing coyote things, OR the shep acts like tritium in a nuclear explosion and just gives the coyote some really good ideas.

Sometimes I lie in bed and I wonder if any of my recorded calls were ever used for quality and training purposes.

Oh I didn't know you could do that! I use the app all the time for pickup but never tried the delivery option.

The irony of ironies. I'm a pilot that is scared of heights, for some reason flying doesn't bother me but most everything else does.

Things you don't want to hear while flying:
"Prepare to copy a phone number"
An engine stopping
A voice behind an oxygen mask referring to your airplane as a "TOI"
That same voice informing you that you've been intercepted by an armed air defense fighter.

Read your NOTAMS kids.
