Hey guys I love when school busses are repurposed either for USA van lifers or as public transit in other countries like MX, Nica, Guatemala, etc. SO I saw this and took a picture to share with you all I love the green color.
>>2048426That's why cults use them to transport their members
>>2051821Isn't that a french mail truck
>>2051793if you drive fast enough you can hydroplane just above the surface of the water
>>2058086Sheldynne Browne said that's impossible
>>2062297Who is that? She sounds hot
All Canadian made aircraft have been decertified in the US.
>>2064513Canada will never be the 51st state and both sides like it that way. it maintains plausible deniability that both are just massive pyramid skeems
>>2064591lolIf you're so good at sucking a boot how about you suck my ass instead.
>>2064532Not that anon.What he said isn't wrong, it is a government owned corporation and famously biased. So the fact that they left out details likely to spin the story in a way that is anti trump isn't surprising and the anon he was replying to should have known better than to trust CBC as his source.
>>2064681>the anon he was replying to should have known better than to trust CBC as his sourceEvery media outlet has it's biases. I can bitch about the CBC/Radio Canada's biases and failures on individual stories, but it's still about 2x better than the other shitty fucking news outlets in Canada, other than a few individual journalists or specialized publications who do better inside their narrow domains.If we're comparing against American journalism, then the CBC is at least 5x better than their national media, but that's a very low bar.What national media outlet in Canada are you seriously suggesting is better? I need a good fucking laugh.
>>2064681Daily reminder the CBC actually staged a hospital room with dummies (the fake, not alive kind) on ventilators as performance for cuckdeau's coronavirus propaganda.These are absolutely evil people who will all hang on the day of the rope.>>2064729None. All cucknadian media is paid for by the government (by law), and anyone not on the payroll is shut down as "misinformation". But somehow, I think you actually like it that way.As a former Canadian federal worker wrongfully dismissed for not wanting to take a experimental drug for trendy pretense, I finally escaped to the US (now green card holder) and has never looked back.
Is steel real?Is the vibration dampening qualities of a steel bike frame just a meme?
>>2064414Steel is good but it can't compete with hot lead.
>>2064414Yes, steel is real. No, its not a meme. Is the guy in the pic riding a Surly?
Theoretically speaking, if I was an entrepreneuring billionaire and I wanted to bring back one of the great American passenger trains (Super Chief, California Zephyr, Panama Limited, Empire Builder, City of Los Angeles/San Francisco, 20th Century Limited, Broadway Limited, Powhatan Arrow, Coast Daylight, etc.) to run on a regular basis (let's put it at at least two times a month for a start), which option would be more feasible from an economic/technical/legal perspective?1. Acquire all of the surviving rolling stock (sleepers, dining cars, dome/observation cars, baggage cars, etc.) from the original consist from private owners, heritage railways, and museums, as well as matching surviving locomotives (can be from ones different railroads since thousands of functionally and aesthetically identical EMD F and E units were sold to all Class I railroads). Renovate them as necessary to make them FRA-compliant, obtain waivers wherever possible. Put them into service as a part-luxury train, part-mobile museum.2. Commission the construction of a replica consist. Building entirely new streamlined cars from scratch, designed to match the internal and external appearance of its original as much as possible, with changes only being made when it's literally required to make the car FRA-compliant/modern user friendly (updated wiring, HEP, power outlets at seats, WiFi support, replacing wooden paneling with MDF paneling etc.). Motive power consists of custom-built Siemens Chargers designed to resemble the original E and F units (streamlining, bulldog noses, matching paint schemes, etc.) as much as legally possible.1/2
>>2011902Why didn't you just post an update itt?
Every time you bump your other thread I'll help you out by bumping this one too
>>2061797different anon
>>2061811what other thread
I'm just here to post a pic of a PA.
What bike repair manuals/books does /n/ recommend. I prefer having a psychical book I can reference while I'm working on my bike instead of fiddling with my phone, stopping and playing a random youtube video. Is picrel any good?
>>2063027>written by mustache man I like the blogs and videos on the park site so this is presumably them in a book. seems legit.I learned out of a book that was written by Bicycling Magazine because I've been wrenching since a few years before the world wide web. it covered indexed shifting but not disc brakes or any type of suspension. it's still good and I still refer to it, but I don't know how many subsequent editions they made and presumably it's no longer published.
>>2063032No real need for books (though i do have one, but it came with a bike); all you need, new and old, specific and generic, basic and specialized, is already online.
>>2063025>>2063486Paper doesn't need electrical power or an internet connection.
>>2064589neither does you're brainsorry you're literally too stupid to figure out how Bicycles work lmao
If you mess around with old bikes, Sutherlands is excellent.A few years ago ? I bought an olde atb with a 70mm bb shell. Not 68, not 73, not Italian.The charts in the book helped me figure out what I was dealing with, and what parts I could use after modifying the frame.
hongcouver getting some china ferries…elbows up?
>>2046182are they auxillary invasion ferries?
>>2046273if it causes BC to become /n/ I see no problem with thist. not from canada but I know how much they hate transportation in saskatoon
>>2060831please don't talk about canada if you don't live here then. We are a failed state and your attitude about our politics indicates to me that you have no second clue on how bad things can and will get where your from aswell.
>>2060837Oh I know how bad things get here that's why the canadian flyovers need to get fucked (not in a sexual way though just proverbially). Low population areas always ruin it for the normals.
>>2046338They could have bought from Florida like WSDOT is doing for their own electrification project. BC Ferries and WSDOT are essentially one combined system, at least when the Sidney to Anacortes route is running. Picking the Chinese instead is pure maple goblin retardation.
What was air travel like before 9-11?
>>2058936Me too, man. Tha captain was really nice.
>>2058931Not as shitty as today but still shitty. Before then I used to catch rides in the jumpseat but that all ended in 2001.
>>2059136I'm very sorry you got deported, anon, but the law is the law.
>>2058931I got my picture taken in the cockpit I used to walk onto the tarmac and up the stairs that was pushed up against the planeI also flew as an unaccompanied minorGot a free pack of playing cardsTook home a neat small plastic cupAirline food was a thing sometimes even on four-hour flights>>2058963Lines got way worse after 9/11

How are the trains in South Korea? And is there a culture around them as well like Japan?
>2025>I am forgotten...
>>2060474Bros before hoes.
Reminder that Geoff fucks trannies now.
>>2059226Who?It's 2026 now.
>>2059923>I think she's hit the wall42 years old... you think?
>>2060620you fags still say this
why doesnt /n/ make stickers?
>>2062825it's not my bike but yes I serviced everything before I sold it
>>2062793Fuck you nigger
>>2062819kek. Respect the hustle.
>>2062784>>2062785Neat. Thanks
>>2062793Shut up you autistic faggot
Welcome to Juarez city... now look at pic relatedCargo train runs right through this buys intersection en el centro.So if you need to get somewhere sometimes there's a massive cargo train in your way preventing you and making you LATE. How do you fix that. Not only that it's dangerous. There are no "Train crossing beware" it's just hopefully uou don't get hit by the train
>>2053994
>>2053854what am I looking at here, why is there a giant wall of dirt?
>>2058605it's to catch stray south korean 737s, should they choose to overrun any nearby runways
>>2055306And that helps pedestrians how?
Gem of a thread
when pilot sample the chemtrail supply
>>2063770>>2063766if you hold a can of dustoff or butane or w/e upside down it gets real cold real fastyou can make ice patches with it on soft materials if you hold the trigger for a long time
>>2061441i say chemtrail when i mean contrail because idc
>>2061441You're a gigantic faggot.Also how 4chan is being run now is gigantically gay, all these fucking stupid captcha shit
>>2061441Thrust vectoring owns the sky! This thing can turn on a dime!
til, planes leave white trails, or condensation trails at high altitudes because hot, water-vapor-rich jet engine exhaust meets extremely cold, low-pressure air, causing the vapor to freeze into ice crystals. Essentially, they are man-made, high-altitude cirrus clouds formed by the combustion of fuel, are chemtrails according to some schizophrenic boomer with nothing to prove it has some adverse negative effect. Retards gonna retard
DC2 and a half editionPrevious >>2040735
>>2052918all pilots in this thread are really cheating on they spouse? thats foul as hell
>>2066116>spouseYou have to have one to cheat on one.
>>2066117are womenz at the hotel bar really throwing themselves at you
>>2066123Nope, not even remotely.
>>2053831Given that becoming a pilot requires a lot of money, it is expected that most pilots would be right wing. It has nothing to do with it being a "real job". I think operating heavy machinery (the realest of jobs according to you) would actually align more with extremist left wing ideology.To clarify, by extremist left wing I don't mean liberals, those are left leaning centrists at best.
I'm having a difficult time deciding on what I'd enjoy most for a weekend/overnight fishing trip boat. I've kind of broken down my wants but its still kind of difficult>reliable enough to run trouble free for 6 month stretches >500 naut. Mile range>purchase price below $20k>space for a full week aboard with 4 people total if neededSo far my 2 top choices have been a bristol with a skeg rudder and fin keel, or a small bertram flybridge like a 28 or something close. Anyone have experience with either sailboats or offshore fishing? I've only been out a few times on a center console which was great to fish off but pretty much only had some bench seats to sit on and had next to no cover from sun.
>>2060806>a three hour tour.. a three hour tour...so comfy
>>2060805>Buying them's the cheap part.I'm tired of this myth. I bought a $15k sailboat (30 ft) two years ago and outside of moorage fees I've spent like $400 on maintenance and repairs, and that includes buying a polishing machine and servicing the sails.If you buy a good boat and take care of it, I really don't see how it can cost these huge figures people are talking about.
I wan't to go, pick me!>I can pull pots really fast>I can keep the bung from getting smoked in a mutiny >I can safely operate any vehicle except helicopter
>>2060949it's mostly shit like marina fees, how expensive "marine grade" consumables are, and first time buyers being like>i bought a boat! yayy it was only like 5 grand, that's less than a car!!>FUCK i dont have a trailer and need to buy that>FUCK it wont fit in my garage i need something built for it>FUCK i need all kinds of weird cables for shore power>FUCK i need to buy radios and epirbs and all kinds of safety shit>FUCK i need xyz because I'm an idiot and didn't do my researchsame shit happens to people buying their first car. they get a 300$ used corolla and then wonder why they pay 5400/mo in insurance and spend 300$ per week just on engine oil
>>2060803Boats are so good in calm waters
what rotary wings would you have if you were a baller and have to vtol?
>>2063797Convincingly, yes. Fake...
Helicopters are too dangerous desu
>>2063557this
>>2063799only if you bully the pilot into flying in adverse conditions like Kobe
>>2064310hookless BAD works in perfect condition (kills on tire puncture)helichoppiess GOOD works in perfect condition (kills on weather puncture)
