It should be noted that the production aircraft will fly over land at 0.95 Mach, so the “boomless” supersonic promise will be only for transatlantic flights. Read more

This car has been listed for sale since the moment ID.Buzz deliveries have started. It’s become a bit of a local joke about how greedy dealers are. Because I mean come on, it’s just a wrap. It’s not special at all. Read more

The cited NYT article says that those are indeed the charges. Ryan must have meant "now facing..." Read more

Someone like me. I’m about to import a 1997 Honda Life. Everyone is importing the same JDM cars. If you’re rich, you buy a Skyline. If you want luxury, you buy a Century. If you want a baby supercar, you get a Beat, AZ-1, or Cappuccino. If you just want “a JDM car” you buy any number of basic white Kei trucks. Read more

A couple of notes: Read more

It is my understanding that a Learjet of that vintage (it was built in 1982) and flying Part 135 might have only one of those two recorders. Lots of smaller aircraft aren’t required to have both to legally fly. So part of the NTSB’s investigation will be finding out if this aircraft had an FDR. Sometimes a bizjet… Read more

I recommend joining some car importer groups (as in groups for people who import cars) like “I Got Screwed By Shady JDM Importers” on Facebook because you’ll find that Google reviews never tell the whole story. Read more

My mistake, I read a different report stating that they found the flight data recorder, not the cockpit voice recorder. Looks like that reporter got their terms confused as most outlets are reporting that it was the CVR found. Anyway, this aircraft wasn’t required to have an FDR and the NTSB has yet to confirm whether… Read more

Current data suggests the engines were at takeoff power for the entire duration of the flight. The airspeed and altitude data do not suggest a stall or a problem with thrust. Likewise, what looks like a fire in some videos looks like the aircraft’s landing lights in other videos. So it’s too early to say it was a… Read more

I'll hook you up with my friend Heisenberg, I hear his is real pure. lol Read more

I’ll take the NYPD over the jokers at my local PD. Still remember (and not fondly) the time when someone stole my van and when the cops found it, they found a meth lab inside. Read more

I am black and work on diversity initiatives, btw.

I watched that press conference and it was possibly the worst post-aviation emergency press conference I’ve ever watched. He spent the entire time railing against what he thinks DEI means while making false claims left and right. Read more

I suppose I’ve added to this pile. My 2016 Smart has an open recall regarding its headlights. My car’s headlights have vertical and horizontal adjustment screws like its European siblings, but that’s a big no no in America. The recall is to install a permanent cap so that the headlights no longer have horizontal… Read more

Honestly? A kei van is way better than this truck cap pretending to be a camper. They cost about the same as a kei truck and have way more space for a camper layout. Read more

Welcome to the crazy group of riders who aren’t afraid of a little winter! Omg I hope you have gear to match the bold yellow of this thing. :D Read more

Static discharge wicks are a huge part of this safety system. :) Read more

I wish car YouTubers (and really every other YouTuber) quit it with the scammy sponsors. Oh boy, I lost count here. Let’s see, Established Titles can’t legally change your title and the “plot” of land you’re buying is a joke. BetterHelp is mining your data, overcharging you, and your “therapist” might not even be… Read more

You are totally correct. It’s also insane what goes into the production of videos at some of the larger channels. Take YammieNoob as an example. It may look like it’s just a guy firing off hot takes from his keyboard, but he has a team of about 30 people helping him plan content 45 days ahead of time. Unless it’s… Read more
