@ryanvaughan Similar to Forklift Certification?

@MicahStevensWx @JamesBryantWX 🤣

@BuzzPatterson I started flying in a 152, then upgraded to a 172. Forget trying to trim for level flight. Flew a couple hundred hours in it then got a chance to co-pilot a Bonanza for a day. What a difference!

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@ryanvaughan Wow!

Now targeting Friday, July 24 for Starship’s thirteenth flight test, due to weather.

A key objective for the flight test is to get clear imagery from the ground of Starship’s heatshield as it flies at a higher dynamic pressure during ascent, which won't be possible with today's weather conditions. Visibility is forecast to be ideal for a Friday attempt.

@MicahStevensWx @ryanvaughan Looks like it's back on track today. You're right, that shear is still awful.

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@ryanvaughan @MicahStevensWx correct me if I'm wrong, but did the center move?

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@ryanvaughan PM? 😁

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@ryanvaughan Looks like Blade53 already flew over Searcy & Heber

@elonmusk Two hot air machines?

@MicahStevensWx @arwx My delivery driver says Hwy 69 in between Truman & Hwy 163 is flooded & impassable.

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@ScottLikedSLS @spacepotat0Z Points for outgassing maybe? Might reduce expansion/contraction. I dunno *shrug*

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@dpoddolphinpro At that height it would've already been caught.

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@DJSnM That's below where the catch arms will grab the ship. Basically a trustfall where the ship was like "oh crap, no one's there!" 😂

@LukeZimWx @BrandonCopicWx @JordanHallWX @PappenheimWx F1 pit stop speed? Pretty close..

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@JacePassmore1 That's getting a bit out of hand. That's becoming a safety issue. I saw the chasers & "tornado tourists" (patent pending 🤣) earlier causing a bit of a traffic jam...

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@MrJamesMay I prefer the rechargable ones

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@BrandonCopicWx That turd will spend most of the time in the shop!

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@lisarobel @ryanhallyall 😂 I have a hip & a knee that can predict most fronts!

[Matt Lane @MoodyLane]

@ryanvaughan Premium fuel is making my wallet light! Hashtag-Pain at the Pum... Oh, yeah. Right. I forgot
