The ability to design an aircraft to run on one engine that gives this pilot no worries is pretty cool.

HEAVY DOWNPOURS NORTHWEST: BEGINNING OF WET SEASON🌧️❄️
A series of active atmospheric rivers is targeting the Pacific Northwest, bringing multiple rounds of heavy rain, high-elevation mountain snow, and strong coastal winds.🌬️
What is an atmospheric river? A large plume of moisture being transported from deep tropical Pacific moisture northward to the West Coast.
Would you take a walk on the beach in this?☔️
Please stay weather-aware & tag us in any updates near you!🚨
Praying for you Tonya

Baseball should be this simple
The Mariners just told you exactly what they believe in.
They had Joe Espada available — a manager who's won division titles and been to October. The safe, proven name. And they passed.
Instead they hired Jason Kanzler, 36 years old, never managed a day in the majors, a guy who's spent the last few years running player development for the Cubs.
That's a philosophy hire, folks. Not a headline hire.
Here's what I keep coming back to:
A week ago, a small-market team with one of the lowest payrolls in baseball won the whole thing by developing their own and sticking to a plan. The Mariners watched that, then went and hired the guy whose entire career IS developing players. That's not a coincidence. That's a bet on how you actually build a winner.
I got my one short summer in the big leagues back in '04, and I was the young, unproven guy in that clubhouse once. I'll tell you.. the coaches who believed in development are the ones who got the most out of guys like me.
But here's the piece I hope he really brings.. the mentality it takes to win at the highest level. The best managers I've ever been around all held their guys accountable, hard, every single day. They set a standard and didn't let anybody slide, stars included.
You can develop all the talent in the world. Accountability is what turns it into winning.
Now, I'm not going to sit here and tell you it's a sure thing. It isn't. He's young, he's unproven, and Seattle is a hungry baseball town that's waited a long, long time. If the young guys don't take a step forward, this gets loud fast.
But I'll take a clear plan over a big name every time. Do the little things right, trust your development, and let it add up.
So here's my question, folks.. gutsy and smart, or too big a gamble with the window open?
