What is something new you learned?

Recently I have taken an interest in aviation airplane ✈️🛫 and I am addicted to watching the videos of "Mayday: Aviation Disaster." I watch it every day now.

I have learned a lot about what the names are for parts of the aircraft and the purpose for each part of the plane.

I've also learned about the different things inside of the cockpit and their purpose.

At my age my brain 🧠 ⚠️ is still thirsty to learn new things. Especially things so intricate such as a jet and/or the smaller airplanes - which I call puddle jumpers, but they don't call them that anymore.

The interesting part is the investigation and the reason that the plane crashed. It's amazing that one little worn out part of the plane was old and wore out. That will bring a jet down and many souls lose their lives over something so minute.

It's all so very interesting to me. My sister lived in a residential area in California where a jet crashed on the street right behind her house and I was able to see that episode and was familiar with the area. I'll never forget that day when she called me and screamed "We're okay." I lived in Tennessee at the time and didn't have a clue what she was talking about. We were 3 hours ahead of her on Eastern Standard time, so I was just getting home from work when she called and hadn't seen the news yet. Thank God it missed my family by just one street.

So you have taken the time to start learning to be a pilot or something? 🤔

[sage2021]

Yeah! 👍🏼 I'm surprised myself that all of a sudden I find it fascinating! 😎

[Asker]

That's pretty cool tho, it's a cool thing to know, how to fly planes and stuff ha

I like all sports and at present on the TV is the Winter Olympics.

Unfortunately I've never been a winter sports person because of a lack of facilities.

Today I've been learning about curling, though I'm more of a skier or skater, and I'm equally bad at both events. 😄

How to roll my own cigar's. I like to puff on one once in a while, especially when having a few drinks. As long as you buy quality tobacco, the taste is actually very good.

[Asker]

Good as in how? 🤔

Don't bring a rifle chambered in 3006 to a 25 yard range because it'll damage the stop behind the targets and they'll yell at you.

[Asker]

They don't use paper targets there? Cause they do here and they charge you for them 😂

[Telekinetic-Potato]

I learned it from a retired navy mechanic the other day. Apparently the wall that catches the bullets are built assuming nobody would bring a powerful hunting round to a 25 yard range 😂

Honestly I wouldn't have thought it would be a big deal either.
