I'm sitting here contemplating the fuel temp thing...

and wondering...

Does the plane take off?

No, Because of the GFC, the Plane's owner went broke and now it's sits on the Tarmac, unused and unloved.
Awaiting it's trip to the Plane grave yard.

I solve my problems like an adult, at the strip club drinking on a work night.

On a similar note, but different question: I received this in an e-mail today.  I believe that it is rubbish and will state my case as to why later.  In the mean time for you to ponder...

"A Factoid that I learned in A300 FAM class is that any tire, regardless of tread, will hydroplane at a MPH speed of 10 times the square root of the tire pressure.
My SUV has 36 PSI tires, so it hydroplanes at 10x6 = 60 MPH.
Useful to know, because you cannot always "feel" hydroplaning."

Um, why does your tire have roots? And aren't roots round? [drink]

What about a 2000 pound car versus a 4000 pound car running the same tires?  Regardless of tread? So a bald tire won't hydro plane any quicker than a brand new one?  What about slicks vs rains?  ill just air up my tires to 50psi and never have a worry.

No.  I didn't see him posting yet tonight, so I thought I might just post some random bullshit, meaningless opinions or opposing viewpoints in his place.
