aviationman212 asked:


I know its one of aviation’s laws. No going above 250 knots below 10,000ft MSL. But do military aircraft have to follow this law? I know at airshows they go about 500 knots. So what aircraft don’t have to follow the 250 knots rule?

F-22’s are ****! asked:


I’m starting school in January at an aircraft maintenance school for a two-year AMT degree. They’re claiming to be #2, next to Embry Riddle, but I also found someone going to a different school that had the same claim.

Is there a list of the top schools in the US? If it helps, I’m going to Pittsburgh Institute of Aeronautics.

Thanks! =)

Bob asked:


Space-craft, IMO, also counts as aircraft. You can use a boat though, if that’s necessary. You can start from anywhere. You’re bare foot has to touch dry land in that country, at some point, for it to count.

How would you do it? Which countries would you be in? Be realistic, please.

Thanks!

Moonwalker asked:


I have a 61-key Yamaha keyboard. I’m not sure if I can fly with it on either domestic or international flights. Does anyone know if the airline will let me fit it in the overhead compartment? I’ve traveled with my guitar before which fitted in the compartment just fine, but I don’t know about the keyboard.

Additional Details

PS. I am moving to Japan in a few months and would really like to bring my keyboard with me onto the aircraft. GEnuine answers will be appreciated.
