I think the idea of flying to see them is not the final objective.. just a mean to see the results of your works. Maria Reich (Principal investigator) found out a lot of correlation between some drawings and star constellations. She also fo

There are a few geoglyphs that can be seen from the surrounding foothills, but most are nowhere near to them. The whole area is a gigantic pampa (desertic flatland). As A kid with my parents, I drove on pickup truck with a step ladder to tr

Wow! that comment takes me way back to when I could tell a CRT was about to go bad because of the sound of the flyback transformer leaking ! :)

I am pretty familiar with the Nazca geoglyphs. (flown over several times) I favour the theory of tethered kites as the are steady 25mph winds over the area, pretty much every afternoon. While flying a local "expert" (Eddy Herran)

Most paragliding/hang gliding vario/altimeters shutdown after a few minutes sitting still. It basically assumes you have landed. That said, I am positive that my vario/altimeter considers altitude gain/loss on the equati

I could easily imagine it picking me up from the top floor of my apartment building, taking me to the heliport at the top floor of an office building. My current commute is 10 km of horrendous traffic. Driving time on rush hour = 1.5 hours

FAA Minimum reserve requirement is 30 minutes. 50 ~ 150 Km is plenty to avoid most cities heavy traffic.

Technology changes so fast that most of this tests are obsolete by the time you take them. The best technologists rely on their knowledge, so they spend their time and efforts staying current. On the other hand, you have weak applicants who

Since our brains store a simplistic version of what our sensors actually read, my WAG Hypothesis is that Deja Vu happens when the digested patterns ready for storage, collide with previous experiences in memory. Kind of a hashing collision.

If your drug is so good, you should let the market decide what the fair price. The problem is that drug companies and wholesalers don't let that happen by lobbying against open markets and government paid healthcare.

I own a small technology consultancy practice in the US & Peru. We regularly pick up projects in the US and have them developed overseas. In our case, business wise, project owners deal with us and we deal with the developers. That way

Your fear is not unfounded. I am very familiar with the legal/court system in a south american country and I can pretty much assure you that any attempts to sue / enforce the terms of your contract to someone who is willing to bre

Few years ago, an embraer actually cut another's plane wing off for the exact same reason. (They were flying at the wrong altitude though)

Big problem is the use of autopilot navigation locked to the GPS route.. this pretty much guarantees that you will fly right below the wake of the above plane on the same route! (Before GPS it will be very odd to flight exactly the same p

If the government has to get involved, it should be on helping (forcing) to define a flexible/complete vendor agnostic data interchange model that patients can carry along wherever they may go. The rest is just GUI, bells and whistles.

40? Ha! I have shoes older than you.. Not really.. but I am a bit older than 40 and if what you are looking for is a steady source of income, I would recommend you to look for places that have large investments on older ( >10 years) tech

Wrong! The title should read : Regulations so strict, 60 years of advances in technology can't make it to the market place. To see what we are missing, Just take a look at experimental aviation which is not as heavily regulated.. *I d

Nice general guide but fails to go in depth of what I consider the hardest issue for a smaller "virtual" company. International payment mechanics, International Labor laws & International Taxes.

A good artist or technician spends most of his time executing and polishing his craft. A politician spends most of his time executing and polishing his image. Given this, guess who would climb higher faster ?

As an example: Something that used to drive me bats was being asked to do something I clearly knew was wrong for the project/company. Before, I would fight hard to make my point. Now, I try to illustrate my point the best I can, then I

Great article but it fails to address a key point of this type of revolutions (I've lived through a couple). Upset people don't like listening to reason. They want relief ( even the promise of it.)

Long ago, after a life event, I decided to ban stress as an "illogical activity". I've got so good at it, that sometimes I have to feign being stressed so the higher ups don't think I don't give a damn. (I do, I ju
