I mean, one of the great things about living in Canada is that you don't have to care about the dumpster fire politics here.
It keeps creeping up, though.
Alberta has their own Boebert in charge of the province and she's probably gonna get elected again.

yea it seeps up for sure but JFC, nothing near the crazy shit i hear from people in the states
i think florida is the craziest
hey you greasy fuckers, I need a notebook scratch pad. I've been using legal pads and all this but I blast through them. A rocketbook is pretty tempting but I'm sure there are other analog to digital solutions out there that don't seem as clunky. I'm trying to get work to buy me a remarkable but that's probably a few months out.
I love my remarkable. Use it for everything and it has app that connects it to my phone and computer so I can access files on all devices.
Amazon just released one as well. Don’t know anything about it though. It is a couple hundred cheaper than the remarkable which is nice.

I did have an entire box of those journals that I picked up at the navy px that lasted yearrrss. Used to put them through the wringer carrying one around all day. Pen isn't my favorite but they were super cheap at the px and clicky. Basically my laptop for 4/5 years.
I still prefer pen and paper to smartphone apps and tablets and stuff. I've used so many barely working electronic devices over the past 5 years and nothing has ever beat a notebook for just ease of use.

I use a rocketbook, but only for notes I know I won't need to save. I use a remarkable for things I'll need to hold on to for a while.
That remarkable thing looks interesting.
I think the biggest problem these days is the number of different storage places, there's stuff in google there's stuff in the microsoft whatever outlook office, the corporate dropbox thing a bunch of reporting software it's it's a mess. It's just easier to consolidate it in paper notebooks than to save it to an account in the cloud somewhere.

You can save stuff where you want. You just have to be intentional about it.
Yeah Im terrrible about keeping organized. I sorta put out a ton of work and leave a mess everywhere.
yeah the CEO and ops manager have them and love them, i'm just waiting for budget approval. I think I'll probably just end up ordering a few of the milspec notebooks posted for the time being. They seem more durable than the composition books I like to use for other things.

i would say yes to both.
id say mostly business people.
we had some rich dude charter a 12 seater mid size jet to fly a porn star from chicago to toronto.
she was the only one on the plane.
so it’s really a mix of everything
I had a question about SOPs for the Citation that crashed over DC recently. I presume the pilot had a medical issue and then the autopilot didnt do its thing. Do these mid-sized private jets generally not have copilots?

i believe that particular cessna citation was a single pilot aircraft. it depends on the model of the plane but some of those smaller jets can be single pilot
apparently the pilot was slumped over in the flight deck and the 3 pax in the back weren’t responsive when the f-16s went up to see why they there was no contact.. the assumption is they had a decompression issue (my biggest fear)
i fly in super mid, heavy and ultra long range jets and they all have two pilots
I saw one theory was that they lost cabin pressure. You've only got a few seconds to put that thing on before you lose it. IIRC, its even happened on commercial airliners in the past.
