Saw that a couple months back, better than I expected after reading the description. You know the Tom Burlinson (playing Jim Craig) had never ridden a horse before the movie and performed all his own stunts (including riding down the side of the mountain)?

Better we talk bout the current teen fad?

Lighting farts was more fun and a lot less stupid, not that I ever did it.

I see that's a British article. Nice to see us leading the field, for a change...

No, wait, seems the craze started in the US. British innovation is non-existent...

Thank you. I was just thinking, “When did this thread travel 40 years back in time to the basement of the Phi Delt house?”

FAA says San Diego building no longer a hazard

A building near San Diego’s Montgomery Field is finally within FAA limitations by 1.3 feet, ending one chapter in an ongoing legal battle.
The FAA has removed a hazard designation after Sunroad Enterprises finished demolishing the top two floors at a reported cost of $1.1 million. The com-pany told the FAA recently that the building is just under the 160-foot height limitation, according to The San Diego Union-Tribune. Sunroad will need to finish the roof and the interior after it receives permits from the city.
AOPA, the city of San Diego, and local pilots fought the developer in an attempt to prevent the facility from being built beyond the FAA’s acceptable limit.

Boeing 737 Max takes off with 90 degrees of nose flare - YouTube

Flashback to piloting an F18? (Once upon a time we’d drive the kids up to the viewing lot at the west end of the Lambert runways when McDonnell Douglas was testing / demonstrating two-at-a-time F18 scramble vertical takeoffs. These were plain gray paint aircraft, not AF Reserve Wing exercises. At altitude they always snap-rolled to fully inverted for a few seconds, then continued the roll to cruising attitude. Full afterburner.)

Was that a normal commercial flight, or just a 'to show we can' flight?

If the plane can do that, why were the pilots at San Diego bothered by the too tall nearby building.

Or are they planning this for routes in the highlands of New Guinea?
