@LoneStarLegendX He has my vote all day. Guess anyone who doesn’t agree with you is retarded so I’ll gladly be retarded. People who think Abbott brought in the Mosques and Indians are the true retards. The immigrants are products of Obama and mainly Biden administrations open border

Greg Abbott’s gotta go. He can resign or watch Republicans refuse to vote for him in November. And, for the “Retarded Right” out there that gives the lesser of two evils argument - he’s replacing you with immigrants and destroying the state simultaneously, while taxing you out of your home to pay for Mosques and data centers. What’s more evil than taking YOUR home, jobs, and opportunities and using your hard earned money to bring both enemies to our state at the same time?

Cockpit footage from a Boeing 737 captures the exact moment a pilot performs a zero-visibility landing... a highly precise and demanding maneuver.

@aelfred_D Hate to say it but they could probably catch us with our pants down in Kuwait. They drove us around by charter bus through the desert and gave one guy on entire bus an actual loaded 30rd magazine even though we all had weapons on us. Treated us like kindergarteners. Eyes out

Special Forces operators around the world wear Vans shoes. Delta Force, DEVGRU, SAS, basically all of them. Flat sole with sticky rubber, quiet, and they don't stand out. Also cheap to replace. The opposite of a $350 tactical boot, which is pretty much the point.

@iAnonPatriot Texas alone could fight off all the color’d hair weirdos and all the clowns like this with bad haircuts and weird mustaches and the cold argument is laughable. We have cold with humidity. Minnesotans come to Texas and cry about the cold

Testing one of the best safety features of an airplane, the “Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System” (EGPWS, pronounced E Gyp-Wiz). It’s part of every preflight check. Sound on! It’s a warning system. While the jet has separate warnings for things wrong internally, EGPWS is concerned about what’s outside the jet, not what’s inside. It’s primarily concerned w/ terrain & obstacles…EGPWS can “see” outside when pilots can’t. It doesn’t actually see anything, though. There are no cameras or lasers. EGPWS does use the jet’s radar, but not for detecting terrain. (We’ll talk more about radar in a minute, but it’s not useful for orienting yourself to terrain in the vertical. It has a “map” mode that you can use to “paint” things like cities, lakes & shorelines, but it only knows how strong the reflection is & how far away, not how high. We almost never use it in map mode, anyway) EGPWS uses the jets navigation systems – like GPS, Inertial Reference, Altimeters, airspeed, etc. – to plot a position in a virtual world. This world is contained in a database on the jet; it’s constantly plotting your position & then estimating where you’ll be in the next few minutes if the trend continues. The virtual world database knows where the mountains are. When you get close to airports in the database (not all airports are in it), it knows where the buildings & antennas are, too, out to a certain radius. Past that radius, it stops caring about the manmade objects. Anyway, it can tell if you will hit something on your current trend & will issue various warnings. It can give you up to 60 seconds of warning. It starts out slow, like saying “CAUTION, TERRAIN”, but if you don’t fix it, it gets serious…“TERRAIN, TERRAIN, PULL UP!”. You’re 20-30 seconds from impact. It’s not a miracle worker, though. It can wait to give you a warning that you can’t fix. Imagine flying toward a 10,000’ high cliff at 1,000’. A 60 second warning will not be enough time to climb 9,000’ & clear it. Or, it sees a mountain to your right, but your current path is clear. It doesn’t know you’ll do a 90° right turn once abeam the mountain. Now you’ll get some late warnings. EGPWS has various other functions. If you get on the approach but haven’t configured to land, it will say “TOO LOW, FLAPS” (or GEAR). If you start getting below the glidepath, it will say “GLIDESLOPE”. Start descending right after takeoff? “DON’T SINK”…and if you do keep sinking, it switches to “PULL UP!” Now, EGPWS doesn’t use the onboard Doppler radar for any of these functions, but it does use it to detect windshear. EGPWS doesn’t care if you turn on the radar or not, it turns it on itself when you push the throttles up for takeoff or when you descend below a certain altitude on approach. It takes about 12 seconds for the radar to build a picture from that point, but once it does, it can “see” windshear. The Doppler detects this by bouncing radar off of particulates & reading how they are moving at different altitudes. The particulates can be dust or just humidity…the radar can’t read air molecules by themselves. So, it’s still possible to get windshear the radar doesn’t see on very dry, clean days. EGPWS hates windshear. If it detects it, EGPWS replaces your screen w/ the radar – even if not turned on by you – & starts with a gentle warning to “MONITOR RADAR DISPLAY”. If you get closer to it, you get “WINDSHEAR AHEAD” (on takeoff – abort if you still can) or “GO AROUND, WINDSHEAR AHEAD!” (on landing). EGPWS is great, but can’t actually move the jet. It’s not connected to the controls in any way. Some fighters do have that capability, but not airliners. The pilots have to fix it. OK, that’s a brief summary of EGPWS. As usual, I’m dramatically simplifying things for a non-techie audience…there is much more to it & different models of jets have slight differences in how this all works. The 737 MAX has some improvements, w/ different voices & even panic, but I don’t have one to record, sorry!

I really love that Americans did this... but the timing is unfortunate. HK has announced they will be selling the MP7 for $2500 which is $1k less than this clone. I prefer to support American companies if I can... What are your thoughts? Will HK come through?

I want one of these so bad, and I want to believe in them, especially because they’re local, but $3800 is a squeeze for an unproven gun.
