Re: Why do sadistic freaks always fly their airplanes around 50ft above the ground?

Everyone is skimming what I said.  Law is they must be at least 1000 feet.

Actually, no. The rule is 500 feet from any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure except as required for takeoff and landing. In congested areas, MSA is 1000 feet above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of 2000 feet.

http://ecfr.gpoaccess.gov/cgi/t/text/text-idx?c=ecfr&rgn=div5&view=text&node=14:2.0.1.3.10&idno=14#14:2.0.1.3.10.2.4.10

So, an airplane at an altitude of 400' above ground level displaced horizontally 300' from you would be flying IAW the rule. 500' is actually pretty close (less than two football fields). However, if an airplane can fly at 50' AGL and maintain the 500' separation from any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure, that pretty much defines a "sparsely populated" area (at least as the FARs apply).

Having said that, polluting OPP with noise from operations strictly IAW the rule is still violating the good neighbor policy that one would expect.

Re: Bitcoin Businesses and Developers: Black & Yellow Pages

I have an agorist business directory called Black & Yellow Pages. Users are sponsored onto the list and connected by one-way trust links so you can see how many "degrees of trust" you are from another user.

It has been profiled by Cypherpunkd on Agorist Radio.

Listing your specialties is free, and if you include "bitcoin" in the tag list a bitcoin icon shows up in your listing. (You can also include 'gold' and 'silver')

Any current user can sponsor others, so you need to get in touch with someone like Plato, who's a regular around these boards for an invite.

Or, just PM me and I'll see what I can do for you.

Re: Newbie Restrictions Are Annoying

Its extremely annoying because the total time logged in never increases. I understand its "active" online time. But frankly the newbie forum is not that active and there isn't anything I can do to be active short of reading threads that I can't even reply to yet.

Yeah, it's SO FRUSTRATING. Gaahhhh just wish I could pariticipate in all those other threads out there, but I'm  stuck in the kiddie pool hoping nobody takes a shit in it.

It's no big deal.  Grin
