A look back at 20 October 2004 — the flight test configuration of the Airbus A380 brake assembly undergoing an overweight landing test on the Dunlop Aerospace dynamometer. Honeywell and Dunlop Aerospace pushed braking limits to certify the world’s largest airliner.

Hey Arkansas! It's severe weather season. Pay attention and have a plan but do not worry. Most importantly, make sure your smoke detector works or buy a new one and get a fire extinguisher. House fires kill 10 times the number of people that tornadoes do on average in Arkansas.

7) Bet $25 on the other team against the spread. Not money line 8) You will win one bet and lose the other no matter what. 9) Repeat 5 times, different games. 10) You'll win $150. 11) Withdraw cash and quit forever. 12) I did this and, at that time they let you bet both ways.

How to get free money in Arkansas: 1) Join Draft Kings 2) Deposit $10 3) Bet $5 on anything 4) Now you have $300 free bets. It's not cash yet. 5) Pick 6 games in any sport. NBA would be an easy one. 6) Bet $25 on either team, against the spread. Not money line. 1/2

The Ford Mustang always sounds like it's going twice as fast as it is.

Was kind of expecting better coverage of this NASA mission. Not very interesting to watch.

@4029Darby And hate to get into the weeds but RHi (relative humidity with respect to ice) with this -60 T and -55 Td scenario is super saturated ~120%. Hrrr uses a magic saturation adjustment during these conditions.

@hogear Very true. Just wanted to keep the message simple on this one, but, very true!

Friends, contrails are produced frequently by high altitude aircraft (usually commercial). Particularly when moisture is ample at the high altitudes they travel thru. They are not "chemtrails" There is no clear evidence to support otherwise at this time phys.org/news/2016-08-c…

@4029Darby It would be dumb to dump chemicals at this height. Airliners can dump all their fuel at this altitude and non of it would reach the ground. And it's certainly airliners. You can track real time contrails visually and confirm the fight via FR 24.

@4029Darby Would add also needs to be very cold. And doesn't have to be saturated, the ice crystals seen just need to live in an area where they don't sublime (evaporate) quickly. Sounding differences are subtle though. And: 1/2
