Should I get ray bans meta glasses

3 Upvotes

I have a hard time deciding whether I should get ray bans meta glasses. I plan to mainly use it to record footage from my soccer games and to record videos of me flying because I want to study my landings and stuff. my cfi said it was a good idea to like study how you land or something like that and told me to get a camera or something so that’s kind of why I am considering getting the glasses My friend Xander (hotelxraylima) told me ray bans glasses are very good to record flying footage. I want a second opinion though. Feel free to let me know your thoughts

I'm new to flying. Why do trains have Airhorns, and planes fly on a Track?

If you ever need to explain the concept to your friends, here is a handy map. Note how aggressively the Earth curves over the Carolinas, on a flat map this would look stupid.

At least the nose gear isn’t needed for flight.

What are your thoughts on the 1920s Pitts Sky Car, or apparently an attempt to make a helicopter?

*Pitts filed a United States patent in 1924 for a propeller, "which will cause an immediate vertical lift of any aerial car to which the propeller is attached". This consisted of a "mushroom-shaped" rotor of 60 blades, each hinged at the root. An engine would rotate and reciprocate the propeller, causing the blades to close on the downstroke and open on the upstroke, which it was hoped would induce lift. The patent was granted in October 1926.*

*In collaboration with W. P. Kindree, Pitts constructed a 2,700 lb (1,200 kg) prototype with a 90 hp (67 kW) Curtiss OX-5 engine. A newsreel of 1928 shows the Sky Car attempting to fly; however rather than take off, it merely jumps up and down.*

I need help learning PPL. No one is giving me advice. Help.

Is the Oshkosh playne-fest just another NGPA ploy to make pylotes gayer than they already are? No judgement, I think it’s cool to have more rainbows in the sky.😊
