I was thinking of leaving some in for post install testing. I know I have to drain it all for calibration, I was just trying to plan ahead a little. I need to drain it all eventually, I'm also going to be weighing the plane. Just trying not to drain it 3 times lol I'm installing an EDM900 and cleaning all the crap I can out of the plane. I've already pulled 6lbs of old wiring for antennas and what not.

I'm upgrading to the Cies senders and had a quick question. How much fuel can be in the tank when swapping them? I burned one tank dry, and have a little over 6 gallons in the other. Is that low enough to remove a sender?

This is an interesting chart from the CDC. Have we already passed the peak??

They're back open on limited staffing. I received an email today with a tracking number for my EDM900. It actually shipped yesterday.

Let's not forget that, per Italian doctors, all deaths are being coded as Coronavirus. It doesn't matter what killed you, if you tested positive, you died of Coronavirus. Freak motorcycle accident, but you had asymptomatic Corona? You're in the stats....

Who cares. we need to sacrifice the United States in its entirety, condemn 100,000,000 to starvation and poverty. We have to recreate the Great Depression if we want to save lives. /sarcasm off

This is what's making this so difficult. Conflicting opinions flying everywhere from literal experts.

I saw they reissued the statement and said "oops, we didn't mean business are supposed to close." They being orange county

I just talked to them yesterday, hopefully mine made it out. They said it was shipping yesterday, today at the latest

Man, I can't tell you how bad I want to do one of those dogfight deals. But I hear the safety record isn't great.

Compared to diagnosed cases, that’s true. But we don’t know the denominator of actual cases. We’re not testing. The best data out there is from the diamond princess. It’s no where near that bad. We’re (and should be) working this containment thing because we don’t know.

Hey, I get it. I'm on board with the social distancing etc. But no, we don't know. Unless you've got information the CDC, the WHO, etc doesn't have. They straight up say they don't know the CFR

Same thing at my shop. I think a lot of folks already had it. We all would have said it was the flu, except we had dry coughs and no stomach issues

To quote Tommy Lee Jones, Men in Black: "A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it."

I'm guessing a little of both lol

Here's what the WHO had to say in respect to mortality rate. "Mortality for COVID-19 appears higher than for influenza, especially seasonal influenza. While the true mortality of COVID-19 will take some time to fully understand, the data we have so far indicate that the crude mortality ratio (the number of reported deaths divided by the reported cases) is between 3-4%, the infection mortality rate (the number of reported deaths divided by the number of infections) will be lower. For seasonal influenza, mortality is usually well below 0.1%. However, mortality is to a large extent determined by access to and quality of health care." In other words, they don't have any idea. But hey, what does the WHO know

ASRS has been filed. I tried to call the tower but didn't get an answer

I'm not an instructor, I'm pretty new at this, so take the following with that in mind, but I'll try my best to explain. The other plane was in pretty extreme bank. Bank does not equal turn. If I put in left aileron, all it would have accomplished was raising my right wing. I would not have been creating distance. Using rudder kept me level, able to see him, but changed my thrust vector immediately. Then I pushed on the yoke and went down. While this was happening, he actually "slid" over top of me.

You're grasping at straws. You're trying to put words in my mouth. If we can't have a sane discussion, I'll bow out.

Yes, they are overreacting. Have you been to the grocery store???

I don't know. I reported to the tower and tried to call on the phone after I landed but didn't get an answer

I've been reading articles on this for weeks. I've not seen a single example of a child under ten dying. Every scientific report I've read indicates that they don't know the mortality rate. Those that make calculations using real data (ie the cruise ship) are estimating .5%. that's not 10x the flu .

Under ten.

Not being zero for children is news to me. As of last night, deaths reported for those under ten years old was zero. Do you have new information?
