I don't know enough about helicopters to know what happened or what was possible from this low speed state. But I do feel that this kind of aerial coverage would be better served by remotely piloted UAV's, but the FAA hasn't wanted to license that kind of thing. https://t.co/2lLr

While Spaceballs parodied Star Wars, the Skywalker sound team worked on the comedy classic, because a parody works best if it looks and sounds like the original.

Grok is doing a fine job helping find the right references for the aircraft inspection. We have to cross reference over multiple manuals and other documents, and the instructions for a task live elsewhere from the schedule. We still get it to show the actual references, rather ht

Some graphs showing a comparison to the same plane landing on the same runway.
We still don't know the true airspeed because of the winds, but we can see the altitudes https://t.co/fzsu1hW54J

@DJSnM Yeah, if you're on short final and you're too fast for full flaps, might be time to consider going around.

@DJSnM Really sad. One of the pitfalls of doing commercial art is you are always doing someone else's bidding. You do not own the IP. Creating the IP is the real art.
You have to commit to your own IP, like Salvador Dali, or George Lucas. Develop your own creative product, fully
