Posted by Tarps99 on 10/4/24 at 1:09 pm
I always get a kick out of movies and out of place road scenes that make absolutely no sense to locals who drive in the same area.
Easy Rider was one of them. You see them going up LA 1 in Raceland by St. Mary’s Nativity and its cemetery. Then they somewhere near Amelia, downtown Franklin, and th...

Posted by Tarps99 on 10/4/24 at 10:14 am
Depending on the type of drone used, as soon as a manned aircraft enters the airspace of the drone the software of the drone will usually alert the pilot to land in or clear the airspace.
Maybe the government will issue a TFR like the FAA did during the recent Lafourche Oil Spill and lift boat th...

Anything motorized can be dangerous if used improperly or if involved in an accident. With those types of vehicles there is nothing between you and what you hit except maybe a helmet. So they can be very dangerous, but we all cannot live in a bubble. Sometimes as humans we need to touch the hot st...
