We should all guess!

My guess is:
Slutt å stirre på dette, ta en titt utenfor

BLUE SIDE UP! :wink:

No, seriously… This airframe has provisions for LPV approaches so the label says something about using the MLS channel and having to set the course selector manually.

Still windy today but not nearly as bad as yesterday. It’s much colder than on Monday though.

“Do NOT press the red button!!”

At our outfit having a button with a placard like that would result in endless arguments about what that button did and why it would be bad to press it. No one would (because we’re all professionals, more or less), but there would be continual speculation and debate and pulling out manuals and researching, until eventually the chief pilot is forced to arrange to have the airplane placed on jacks at the next maintenance event, all fire extinguisher bottle circuit breakers pulled, and the button pressed in order to observe the result.

Which would probably be the galley coffee heat turning off! :rofl:

Wow, so you guys aren’t loading GPS/LPV approaches out of an FMS database, but rather tuning them and setting it up the old fashioned way? I haven’t heard of that in years, neat!

(Maybe I shouldn’t confess, but I’ve only had to do that once, when flying into a large ranch airport in Texas (hangar could accommodate 2x 737BBJ’s at once), named after an oil baron. Had very nice GPS approaches down to LPV mins for each direction. We had authorizations and everything, but didn’t manage to get our aircraft DB updated in time to add the procedures. Had to enter the airport in manually, and while we didn’t need the approach we did enter the channel and final approach course in so we’d have the Track/GP.)

We do when we’re flying LNAV/VNAV but to get the added precision from an LPV we must use the MLS channel and that requires the course to be set manually, for some reason. Also LPV didn’t work that well at extreme northern (or southern) latitudes, until recently, so it’s pretty new up here. We’ve been using GLS with ground based correction signals, the last decade or so. LPV is still at its limits up here, much because of terrain masking in addition to the latitude.
We only have a few airframes capable of LPV, so far.

It’s been horrendous with me. Horizontal rain, o letup. Still on the turbo. :slightly_frowning_face:

Snorkeling with my daughter in St. Thomas last week. Just before we left Charleston, I picked up an underwater housing for the Insta360 X3. It worked pretty well, especially since it has slightly negative buoyancy. The salinity was so high in the little bay we swam in, that I felt like I was expending over half my energy just getting off of the surface. A weight belt would have really helped, but we were using rental gear and they were more used to customers requesting floatation vests. A few shots clipped from video.

It’s “tendon.” Tempura’d shrimp, eggplant, pepper, and sweet potato over rice and drizzled with a sweet soy sauce.

Lovely weather indeed. We tore out 5 tons of rubble and reinforced concrete from this town yard.

And hauled in well over a ton of stones and another ton of sand

After the weekend we’ll haul in another 1500ish kilos of bricks and lay them in aesthetically pleasing patterns.
