For what it’s worth, US limit is only 20mph with full motor. Class 3 is allowed, with 28mph (45kph, actually) when using pedal assist. I threw a larger chainring on my eBike to make maintaining 28mph easier and I just pedal everywhere.

We use “bum fuck nowhere” in Michigan, at least in my experience.

It’s very important!

my new bio: (masculine neutral/masculine possessive)

Isn’t it nominative/objective?

I don’t see “he/his” or “they/their,” I see “he/him” and “they/them.”

Critics decry Louisiana’s actions as politically motivated, warning that such prosecutions could undermine access to reproductive healthcare and expose tensions between state laws.

That’s the whole point.

I came here to make this same post. Fuck Moash.

As this is a route flown to transport VIPs, eventually you HAVE to train pilots on it, at night, during congestion. These would have been highly experienced pilots who would’ve flown the route previously. They knew what they were doing.

People make mistakes.

That’s why aviation relies on the Swiss cheese model. Unfortunately there was only one needed point of failure here, it seems.

They’re pretty bland. Kinda melt-in-your-mouth. You can get them from a Catholic supply store, or you can order them online, if you want to try them out. They’ll sell them to anyone, they only care about limiting who eats them after they’ve been consecrated during mass.

“Except for the part when the aircraft collided, everything was perfectly normal” does not inspire confidence in the system…

And it really shouldn’t.

Aviation safety is built around the “Swiss cheese” model. Things can (and, by virtue of human nature, will) go wrong, but for an accident to occur, multiple things have to go wrong. The holes in the Swiss cheese have to line up for something to pass all the way through a block of it.

Here, there was ONE thing, maybe two, that went wrong. The helicopter pilots identified the wrong plane when told to confirm visual and fly behind it. One could argue an overtaxed ATC wasn’t able to properly monitor them, for a potential second thing that went wrong.

One, maybe two things going wrong shouldn’t cause fatalities. If this is how DC airspace regularly operates then something needs to change.

Physicists attract everyone *

Dude I love that shit. Especially citrusy flavors. But everyone’s tastes are different.

Thanks for the Public Service Announcement.
