Just blew a flat earther’s mind

Just blew a flat earther’s mind

Im a commercial pilot. This week we had a passenger pop into the cockpit while boarding to say hi. Genuinely lovely guy. Then he tells me and the captain, with total sincerity: “You pilots, more than anyone, must know the earth is flat. You’re just part of the cover-up.”

I just laughed and opened the aircraft’s manual. Showed him this and asked. How do you explain this then? Guy was speechless. Then of course, found the most lame excuse to say our manuals are fake.

Performance with large block counts /nested pages — anyone hit a wall?

Hi all,

I'm in the process of migrating my knowledge base from Notion to Craft. My structure will be mostly nested pages rather than heavy use of Collections — think a deep hierarchy of docs rather than lots of databases.

My documents will be actually rather short in content, but many of them.

Before I commit fully, I wanted to check with people who've been using Craft for a while with large spaces:

  • Have you noticed any lag or slowdown as your total block/page count grows (either scrolling within a document, or just navigating the sidebar)?
  • Does this show up more on iOS, or on the Mac/Windows/web apps?
  • Roughly how large is your space (block count, page count, or just "years of daily notes") when you started noticing it, if at all?
  • Does heavy nesting (many levels deep) behave differently than a flatter structure with more top-level pages?
  • If you've also migrated from Notion, did you notice a meaningful difference in how the two apps handle scale?

One of my main worries moving off Notion is hitting a similar performance ceiling once a knowledge base gets big, so any real-world experience — good or bad — would be really helpful before I move everything over.

Thanks!

Pilot looking for offline-capable PKM with AI search. Notion Business is overkill for what I need

Hi everyone!

I'm a First Officer, and I keep a large personal knowledge base of regulations, aircraft systems notes, and company SOPs/procedures, the kind of stuff I need to reference constantly, both for studying and for quick lookups during work.

I've been using Notion for this, but with their pricing change, real AI search now requires the Business plan, which is way more than I need as a solo user just wanting to query my own notes. +

What I actually need:

  • Offline access on iOS and PC: I'm often without signal, need my notes reachable no matter what.
  • AI chat/search over my own notes when I am online, not just keyword search, but something that can find buried info based on what I'm asking. Example: I should be able to ask "what's the bank angle limitation for normal law" and have it pull the answer from deep inside a folder structure like Aircraft > A320 > Systems > Laws and Protections, without me needing to remember exactly where I filed it. I don't care about auto tagging, proof reading nor any other AI feature, I only need to be able to chat with my notes.
  • Reasonable pricing for a single user, not an enterprise/team plan.
  • Nice to have: some kind of structure/hierarchy (folders, tags, linked notes) since my notes are technical and cross-referenced a lot (e.g. a systems note might tie into a regulation note might tie into a company SOP).

I've looked at Obsidian, Capacities, Tana, and Reflect, and I'm currently also taking a closer look at Mem — but wanted to ask people who actually use these day-to-day: which one handles offline reliability + genuinely useful AI search best, without pushing me into team/business pricing? Bonus points if anyone else here is in aviation or another field with dense technical/regulatory documentation and has found a setup that works.

Appreciate any real-world input!

Update: I don’t need offline AI. This will only be required when im not flying and for studying only when connected to the internet. When flying, and for specific procedures, I will only use quick notes that i can access through favorites, bookmarks etc.

Rate my setup

I don’t want to go too fancy. I think it is a fairly modest setup. What do you think ?

Looking for honeywell a320 FMS2 Release 2 documentation

Hi everyone, I’m a pilot currently flying the A320 and I’m looking for a single document that clearly outlines the fundamental differences between the FMS release 1a and the FMS 2 release 2. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find it.

I would appreciate any help on this.

Thanks

Ando buscando a ver si alguien en Colombia logró importar el X9 Ultra. Me gustaría saber dónde lo compraron y si han tenido algún problema con él.

Gracias!
