@InsiderTreat Me, not understanding anything at 8: how does it fly?

Me, understanding aerodynamics and physics and mechanical engineering and harmonics at 30: how does it fly?

@InsiderTreat

Might be me if I didn't live right under a helicopter flight path

[terryhancock@realsocial.life]

@InsiderTreat

Relatable, although living in LA for awhile may cure this.

I once counted 7 helicopters hovering, from my backyard. I presume something interesting was happening on the nearby highway interchange. Noisy!

[insidertreat@infosec.exchange]

@rotopenguin me spending 6 years flying them: how does it fly?

[insidertreat@infosec.exchange]

@gbargoud it'd probably still be me lol

[insidertreat@infosec.exchange]

@TerryHancock I'd probably just sit around all day watching them and get nothing done.

[livho@tech.lgbt]

@InsiderTreat Yes, but also planes if I hear them. Just that they are usually too fast. So looking at a helicopter is enjoyable for a longer time.

@InsiderTreat local hospital has a helipad on the roof and every time lifeflight lands or takes off everyone in the area stops and watches lol

@InsiderTreat In another life, I would have definitely worked in aviation. Being high up in the sky is truly a magical place.

[aanee@mastodon.online]

@InsiderTreat Also planes flying on sufficiently low altitude.

@InsiderTreat I live in a place where a certain tire company Zeppelin flys over occasionally. It is quieter than the old blimps of yesteryear. I always run for the door to gawk when I hear it.

Edit: some sort of self correct changed blimp to glimpse. There. I fixed it.

[insidertreat@infosec.exchange]

@LovingFalloutLondon1954 oh that would be cool!
