minus-squaremirshafie@europe.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up20arrow-down1·2 months agoI pick 30 minutes at Mach 7, here’s your $5 Canadian and please get out of my way, I do intend to board now.
minus-squareUnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·2 months ago I pick 30 minutes at Mach 7 How long do you want to spend at Mach 7 relative to stopping and starting? Because that could be a lot of G-force.
minus-squaresupersquirrel@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·2 months agoMeh just accelerate with F-force and then switch to G-force when you are up to speed and vice versa when slowing down, problem solved!

minus-squarefartographer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoI want people to find my face at the starting runway, and my skull in some field 7 miles away from where the plane landed.
minus-squarebetanumerus@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 months agoi definitely won’t be in your way. bring back pictures.
minus-squareTaldan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·2 months ago$3.60 for mogas at a couple places near me. Very high density altitude, well leaned out, in slow flight, you could get 27 minutes out of a 150 for $5 These guys are also apparently getting electricity for 2-4 cents per KWh, which is many times cheaper than most would be able to get it You’d even have more useful load than this “jet” that can carry no passengers or cargo You could also fly a glider. It’d be as useful as this thing
