You can hear the gearbox tearing itself apart in that vid. Too low to autorotate.

On the video, you hear the engine spooling up, then the overspeed warning horn, (beep beep beep beep), then spooling down, then the low RPM warning, single long beep right before impact. You also hear the pilot say "fuck!" and the reporter ask if they can go up--- then impact. Wreckage shows the rotors weren't spinning at time of impact.

NGL I'd pay extra to ride backwards on a plane. I prefer to ride backwards regardless of the mode of transportation because I prefer being pushed back into my seat by braking force.

A thread to talk about this integral component.

Along with tyres a saddle is perhaps the most impactful upgrade you can make to a bike in terms of delivering immediate and noticeable improvements to comfort and ride quality.

I'll kick things off with a Brooks related question. Can anyone identify picrel?

It has B66 Champion stamped on the side, and is fitted with the old fashioned sprung dual rail system. However, the B66 has a width of 205 mm, whereas this saddle is 175 mm. More like a B17 on top. A conundrum indeed.

i have a backup saddle thats not as good but looks better
>>
>>2080345
>>2080948
Brooks has in current production the Flyer, which is a sprung version of the B17 at 175mm width. From what I could find on a google search, the only difference between the Flyer and B66 Champion is the rails (single vs double) and the rivets (steel vs copper). The leather top is otherwise identical.

You want a saddle with a cut-away section, or it will impede blood flow to your penis.

They never ride a bike in their life, then go on a 30 minute ride and complain that their ass hurts not knowing it takes time to adapt to riding a bike. So they think obviously it must be a cushioning problem and not a "I have to be less of a fat fuck and ride my bike more often" problem

IMO nothing is more embarassing, effeminate, latent homosexual and weak than motorized personal transportation.

I dunno man, it looks nice in this one picture but imagine how much nicer it would be if it was on a train. You could have properly enclosed compartments, a place to go to get food & drink at any time, a consistently paced ride without ever having to stop for traffic (assuming good rail infrastructure), bathrooms that are guaranteed to exist and be functional and larger than a shoebox. Trains are so nice you can comfortably ride them for weeks on end, a single day on even the nicest bus is enough to wear most people out.
>>
>>2080384
>>2080388
Buses in my region are very modern, they have ac and usb charging ports, and the passengers are regular working class people and students. Still don't like it. Had to take a 2 hour bus trip once because the train drivers where on strike. I was so fucking exhausted after that journey that I couldn't bring myself to do anything the rest of that day. They're only useful for inner city travel where you can hop off after a few minutes.
>>
>>2080442
>You could have properly enclosed compartments
I don't see wha you cant have them on a bus and I suspect this company has got plans to do that.
I also don't see how it matters really, when you fly first for example you got like 6 to 8 seats or so there and even if they're all occupied its not really that bad like you hardly even notice other ppl bc the dividers.
>a place to go to get food & drink at any time
Those busses have that
>assuming good rail infrastructure
This is literally the issue. If there is only shitty rail you can sit and throw a tantrum or simply accept that the way to fast dorward it is this sort of bus.
>bathrooms that are guaranteed to exist and be functional and larger than a shoebox
This bus has a bathroom and seperate dressing room.

so I went to a 135 operation after spray season ended and it was terrible. dreadfully boring and my captains were idiots. stupid women, stupid minorities, scary boomers, angry retired airline guys...I last 4 weeks alternating between profound boredom and horror at these people who truly have no clue what they are doing/do not care at all.

lost all respect for jet pilots period. luckily I'm a dual rated PPL rotard so I got my commercial add-on and a buddy got me greased into an air ambulance job despite being a little short hours. I'll do fire next year. I am making plans to avoid flying commercially in the future for myself and my family.

idk what you expected anon. It's either inexperienced people on the grind for hours who don't give a fuck, literal retards that couldn't make it in 121 but somehow made it there, the same retards with multiple DUIs, or jaded and salty boomers who hate their bitch wives so much they'd rather fly 135 shitboxes for peanuts. 121 is definitely much better; I've flown with only a small portion of retards that slipped though the cracks. Everyone else was mostly chill and knew what they were doing.
