10 years? I just skimmed it but where does the 10 years come into play?

That’s the minimum requirement for applying. Competitive applicants will need much more than that for the legacy airlines.

You said “ None of the big airlines would even consider applicants unless they have at least 5,000+ hours logged.”

That is false. The reason I know this is because I texted a guy I know named Glen Hauenstein who happened to have attended Auburn University a long time ago. He said that Delta has in fact hired guys with a little over 1500 hours of flight time although with strong turbine PIC time.This guy knows a little about the hiring practices of Delta Airlines.

Are the ends cut flat and anchored to concrete or just buried in the dirt? The tendency to roll is going to be great. Three logs would be infinitely better.

You don’t have to tell me care is expensive. My mother has dementia and requires 24 hour care so she can stay in her home. $70,000 per month is extreme.

If his parents were paying $70,000 a month for a mental institute they should have been the ones in the institute.

Goose ID

Posted by highcotton2 on 12/20/25 at 6:06 pm

Saw a funny looking goose on my pond this morning. Picture was taken from my porch so it is super cropped and the detail ain’t the greatest. Looks like maybe an immature Ross’s goose or maybe a Ross Snow cross? The black bill doesn’t look like a Ross. The head is almost duck like.

Size comparison.

I have a buddy who runs one on a Takeuchi and he likes it a lot. I believe it has a “roll” up door that you can open with the loader in any position.

Because if you don’t believe what they believe they want to kill you. They don’t care if you are friendly to them or not they want to kill you. That is why they are not compatible with western civilization and never will be.
