Morning!

good morning

Dan, how far did you get with getting access to the Aviation Blog here?

@SentryRaven It took about a week before someone with admin noticed I was waiting. I wrote a post, but instead of it getting published it stayed in state "submitted" for another fortnight. After that I deleted the post and put it on my own blog instead.

People's review comments were helpful, but ultimately a write-only blog is not what I'm looking for.

I can understand the desire to set up a pipeline of content before launching the blog, but I think the result of that has been that only people who don't care that much about having a blog are involved in it. It's been sitting in the same state for more than a year, and SE has now deprecated site blogs, so I wouldn't put money on it ever being launched.

I see... Thanks for the info!

@Federico Why don't they just have the aircraft take-off/land on a gigantic treadmill on a lazy Susan that can be turned to point into the wind.

@FreeMan People keep saying the treadmill is a stupid idea, but seriously

think of all the rubber you'll save by not spinning up the tires

or something... :p

@DanHulme people who don't care that much about having a blog are involved Ooch, that hurts.

:)

@falstro My point!!!

@StackExchange He's put his question on the site, and provided the start of an answer.

I think that's a good idea, but people are flagging it as a dup.

We could deal with it by just voting to leave it open...

@FreeMan it's still a dupe

should the other question be tagged to the Wiki, then? or do we ignore the meta suggestion?

ignore the meta request

what meta request?

;)
