I also don’t eat raw chicken, but I can tell when the thing is raw lol

“NordVPN offers private DNS in its apps, which ensures tighter security and privacy for your traffic. The NordVPN native applications automatically use NordVPN's DNS servers when connected to VPN. This prevents DNS leaksduring your VPN connection, ensuring that your NordVPN private DNS requests are safe. NordVPN's DNS server addresses are 103.86.96.100 and 103.86.99.100. Learn how to change NordVPN DNS servers (more on it later). Why use NordVPN DNS servers? DNS servers translate human-friendly domain names such as www.google.com into IP addresses like 192.168.1.1 so your device can connect to websites. When you type a website address, your device asks a DNS server for the IP address. If the server doesn’t know it, it looks it up from other servers. Changing DNS servers provides you with increased security as well as speed. With default DNS you may be subject to DNS hijacking. DNS hijacking is a cyberattack where attackers redirect or alter DNS settings to send users to fake websites or malicious servers. This can lead to phishing, malware infections, data theft, or blocking access to legitimate sites. It often occurs through router vulnerabilities or malware. “ Good write up on diffrent DNS, also goes into the censorship some of these DNS unfortunately use, unknown to most of their users https://old.reddit.com/r/nordvpn/comments/12azz99/best_dns_servers_to_use_with_nordvpn/?rdt=35616

I really wouldn’t use googles DNS, with google your data is the product and they’ll sell it to the highest bidder or fall over themselves to give it to gov. Some good no logs DNSs from proton, Nord, etc

Sadly that is true

Just curious, I don’t recall ever voting in new investigators into the NTSB, they are, just as Dan, unelected

For me it’s just what I see with my with my two lying eyes. Obviously there are outliers, but the “I work to live don’t live to work” and “keep your head down till pension” type attitude is WAY more prevalent in the GS world, also the pay scales and job requirements are public knowledge Add to that how hard it is to get a bad apple in GS fired vs private sector.

I was indeed defending him, to a point, just as I said NTSB does some good work and some crap work, Gryder has some good opinions and different thoughts on some stuff and some crap opinions on some other stuff. I do think many people jump on the Gryder bad band wagon the same way some people don’t like nickleback (band), under questioning most can’t really forum a independent reason they don’t like them sadly it’s mostly because many of the other lemurs don’t like him so the others conform, some folks just have a personality that makes it VERY difficult to diverge from the perceived heard If I asked the other poster why he doesn’t like Dan he’d probably come up with one or two examples, which he probably heard from other people, yet, as was clearly seen here, he completely dodges, deflects and then makes counter accusations when I posted NINE (9) proven examples of when the NTSB complete screwed the pooch.

Those are just the ones I could find in a minute or two, but it proves my point pretty clearly They can and do screw up, also many GA crashes they can’t even be bothered to come to the crash, I don’t know how they can do their job if they don’t even show up to “work” I think they do some painstaking work sometimes, if it’s a transport cat 121 or a celebrity.

Not sure the age is too much of a factor, one of mine is coming up on 80yrs old and it’s super squawk free, that being said if something needs doing I just do it, which keeps maintenance issues down and costs from snowballing. I’m not sure I could have owned planes over the years without owner assist and being very very involved in everything from turning wrenches to sourcing parts and solutions.

Good write up, not going to have ADSB in my planes, but I always thought tailbeacon was one of the better options for those who want the tracker wish more of the manufactures would focus more on privacy with their products, think the Garmin GDL was the best in that regard the tailbeacon sends a few pings out in the clear of your N number even when set to private mode plus it uses your lat Lon to make up a “random” address

Partisan? What party am I supporting here? I think most all of government is a dumpster fire regardless of what color tie they wear I also work in the industry, what are you talking about? A duty? These guys ain’t knights of the round table, often in GA crashes they don’t even go to the scene lol They have a job and just like many workers a good chunk of them “work to live and don’t live to work”, sadly sometimes the easiest answer is going to be defaulted to even when it ain’t so Plus I hate to break it to you but these NTSB workers are HUMANS, they at the best of times also make mistakes Now add to that the pay the average NTSB or FAA type makes, and the ones with real talent are going to be working for Boeing or the like, who often hand hold and walk the GSs through these crashes (for obvious reasons), not some GS wage table ”but the NTSB has a duty, bound by federal statute, to investigate GA crashes to their conclusion” AND THATS A GLARING ISSUE

“Here are documented cases where NTSB findings on aircraft accidents were later contradicted by court rulings, juries, or subsequent studies: • 2002 Piper Saratoga crash (Mark Williams): NTSB blamed pilot for fuel exhaustion; later federal investigator found failed engine component. [21] • 1999 Piper Cherokee crash: NTSB found no malfunction, blamed pilot loss of control; jury ruled defective carburetor caused engine failure, killing four. [21] • 2006 deHavilland crash: NTSB couldn’t determine blade failure cause, blamed pilot airspeed loss; jury found defective turbine blades, killing six. • 1989 Cessna crash: NTSB blamed pilot stall; jury found defective pilot seat caused control loss, injuring three. • 2008 Textron Lycoming crash: NTSB blamed pilot’s weather decision; judge ruled defective carburetor caused engine failure, killing three. • 2003 Midair helicopter collision: NTSB blamed pilot non-compliance with ATC; federal judge ruled FAA negligence in separation, killing three. • 1998 Cessna Skyhawk crash: NTSB blamed pilot; later evidence showed illegal runway mound violation caused impact. • Home-built aircraft crashes (1982–2013): NTSB blamed pilots in 72%; 2012 study revealed engine failures, design flaws, and inadequate manuals. • Islander airplane crash: NTSB blamed pilot error; analysis argued engine failure led to roll below minimum control airspeed.”

Re read my post, I clearly said GA I’ve seen the NTSB make a determination without even coming out, heck it says as much in many of their GA reports, and in many cases it’s a best guess. Running joke was if the PIC died it’s going to be “pilot error” in their findings. I’d be careful holding GS workers up to this funny standard, go look on USAjobs and see their requirements, they are pretty low. One of the reasons Gryder got to be known was he went to a crash site the NTSB abandoned, and found evidence (trash left behind by .gov) in it that made the NTSBs findings, well questionable. The reaction he got was foreseeable since recently the government has more or less replaced religion for many people, questioning .gov is deeply offensive to some.

What’s wrong with someone independently reviewing data and offering a different possibly course of events, honestly many many GA crash analysis are just educated guesses anyways, and being a GS9,12, ain’t exactly proof of excellence lol

I’ve personally seen it the other way as well
