Nopony really cares what I have to say anymore so I'm just going to go now.

@abigpony You were the last person I expected to be supportive in this situation
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:33:02 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark @abigpony Yeah, I don't believe it. You don't care about anything.

@andranator2 Why /wouldn't/ people care what you have to say?

@andranator2 you know, your the second person to do this today. Is it national whine on rainbow dash day?

@andranator2 I am complaining. Do you want to HEAR whining?
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:36:48 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark No, no, that's alright? D:
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:37:32 UTC from web-
@pinhooves alright.*

@ceruleanspark No, instead I can explain how to use an E-6B flight computer if you want.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:37:58 UTC from web-
@andranator2 I actually love learning random crap like that. Go for it.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:38:32 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Sweet do you want calculating ground speed and wind correction angles first or speed conversions
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:40:46 UTC from web-
@andranator2 Calculating ground speed and wind correction angles sounds good to me.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:41:52 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark alright to calculate ground speed and WCA you first need to know the speed and angle of the wind you're flying in in knots and degrees true and you also have to know your true airspeed which can be found in the aircraft operation manual. The you slide the rotating peice of the E-6B on the body section until the gromet in the middle is on you're reference point (usually 100 for simplicity's sake) the you turn the dial so your wind direction is under the true index (arrow at the top) the you count up the lines up from 100 to your wind speed (if wind speed =30kts then count up to 130) you then make a PENCIL mark on the rotating dial at the line you've counted to directly above the 100. after that you rotate the dial so that your true track is under the true index but do not move the slide. After you have it in place slide the dial so your pencil mark is on your true airspeed. Now you can read your groundspeed directly under the gromet and your wind correction angle...
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:53:19 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark cont.. by counting how many lines it is away from center. You then have the number of degrees right or left. If it's right you add the number to your true track to get your corrected heading or subtract it if it's left. Your groundspeed was already found underneath the gromet. Now you know which heading you have to use to go in the right direction as well as how fast you will be travelling over the ground.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:56:37 UTC from web-
@andranator2 I'm pretty surprised this process isn't more...digital actually. I looked up the E-6B to see what I was looking at. Guess I'm even less cut out to be a pilot than I thought.
-
@ceruleanspark they use digital ones for jets and such that have 1000+ button but if your fly a cessna with like 30 buttons you have to do a bit more work
Friday, 02-Dec-11 08:45:17 UTC from web-
@andranator2 I'm totally unable to fly a jet because my vision is too poor. Might be able to fly a light aircraft or an autogryo though. ( I really want an autogyro.)
-
@ceruleanspark depends on how poor your vision is. Which country are you from?
Friday, 02-Dec-11 08:47:46 UTC from web-
@andranator2 I'm in the UK.
-
@ceruleanspark oh, I'm familar with canadian air regulations but not air regs in the uk so I don't know what the licencing requirements in the uk are for a private pilots licence
Friday, 02-Dec-11 08:51:23 UTC from web-
@andranator2 I can have my vison corrected if I really want, but I can't actually afford pilot training at the moment anyway, so I figure it can wait until I'm older.
-
@ceruleanspark flying is something you can learn at any age really so it's just fine. I'm getting my licence through the air cadet program and if I get the scholarship slot I won't pay anything for my whole licence and training.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 08:54:36 UTC from web-
@andranator2 I'm medically too crazy for any sort of military service under UK requirements, so I'd have to front the cost of lessons myself, and they ain't cheap. (On my salary, anyway. In a few years when I'm earning more, it's more of a possibility)
-
@ceruleanspark they're not cheap anywhere but yeah if you want to fly don't every give up on it. Pilots (or pilots to be) like us live for the glorious feeling of flight. Always chase that high of flying. Good luck. Also it's almost 1am here so I'm going to go to bed now. My alarm goes at 6am then I have to go for my run. 5 miles every morning because I gotta keep in shape. Sometimes it really sucks though. lol anyway... Good Night
Friday, 02-Dec-11 08:59:22 UTC from web-
@andranator2 This was pretty interesting. Thanks for discussing it with me! Goodnight! Sleep well!

@carcino actually one of the things that has always confused me about this site is that when I whine everyone is nice to me.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:39:44 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark I don't catch you whining. And I play favorites. Is this not obvious?
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:40:45 UTC from StatusNet Android -
@ceruleanspark I try, but I get so tired of telling people "You don't have a problem. You're 15. Being 15 *is its own* problem."
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:41:12 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark Because you don't do it constantly, and you're a good friend. :3
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:41:31 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark I do my best to not be nice to anyone evey.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:41:34 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark 1. You don't do this often. 2. When you /did/ do this, it sounded serious as in suicide serious. 3. I am currently busy doing other things at the moment and there hasn't been much room for an opening into the conversation with them. (Excuse I know, but 3 other things isn't easy.)

@abigpony You've crafted the image on here that you hate everyone and everything. This is the end result of that process.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:42:42 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark and I haven't?
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:43:01 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@carcino You aren't currently denying your hatred of all things and people.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:43:24 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark I don't hate me.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:43:53 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@carcino I do that for you.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:44:11 UTC from web-
@thatonepony I will someday pass the Holy anger throne to you, my friend. But not yet.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:45:09 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@carcino kiwiING dole I AM A MILLION TIMES MORE ANGRY THAN YOU!
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:45:49 UTC from web-
@thatonepony no way, plus I'm old school on here. On like an OG and you're Young Blood ya dig?
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:46:31 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@carcino Your a stupid twat is what I dig.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:47:22 UTC from web-
@thatonepony you're* and Carl! Name calling is rude!
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:48:24 UTC from StatusNet Android-
@carcino I think the misspelling was a deliberate troll attempt.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:49:05 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark no, he does it all the time, I notice this.

@carcino I hope you die in a hole. Filled with garbage juice. I hope you drown in it.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:49:14 UTC from web-
@thatonepony Y'know when you're drowning in a substance it's actually irrellevant what the substance is. Your lungs can't taste or smell it.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:49:53 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark It would still be all chunky and murdock.
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:50:26 UTC from web-
@thatonepony Hey! Language! We don't say "chunky" here!
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:51:00 UTC from web-
@scribus Because it describes your apples so well, right?
Friday, 02-Dec-11 07:51:39 UTC from web-
@thatonepony Ha! As if! I don't have nearly enough papayas to describe it as "chunky."
