    I'm serious, nothing's improved here on my side, since the beginning of August 2024,
    rather the opposite.

    With Cpt Randazzo as my prototype, I now (!) like to move, to a better place.

    Rather sooner than later. So. If you have friends who know somebody who knows somebody who could know a place where I could move to,
    leave a message for Alex (he's far mor often here than me),
    or
    leave a message directly here on my profile (with the circumstance that I'm not here so very often).

    Thank You. Brilliant.

    PS: If there are two things that I could mention as wishes, 1. the place is - and I really try to not be as demanding as Orange ... - within a 10 US mile radius around
    the next International airport.
    3 miles, what a happy man Orange must be. 2. the place is within clearly less than 5 US miles (less than 7500 m) to the next gas station which is open 24/7 .

    And now we wait for Gabriel. I don't know if I may publish that, but you've published it before, open for each and every guest of the jetphotos forum. You are in Chile.
    From now on I'll never again publish things that haven't published before.

    So. You say 20 US miles if there's only a fuel drop in the tank, and you urgently need the car.

    Probably Gabriel knows it better, but 20 US miles are .. 32 kilometers? So, here we have a man who is ready to drive 32 kilometers to find an open gas station
    let's say at 00:35 a.m. .

    I'd say that's quite alot. And that's clearly more than I'd expect.

    My answer would be, clearly less than 7500 m, wich is answer A: 5 US miles or maximum 8 km .

    And the question was, how far would you like to drive,
    and not, how far do you have to drive at 00:40 a.m.

    Which in my case is a difference. If I now needed fuel, I'd drive at least 15 US miles.
    With the small and ugly detail, it got worse since I live here...

    Probably I should do the same as Captain Randazzo, move. To a better place...

    Hm. The last time I tried to talk with Bob, I think I've threatened all of us with this question, on another boring lousy thursday. So. This is not an official jetphotos poll (yes in earlier days there have been official jetphotos polls, with nice colorful bars as a result), but let me give you four choices, like in Who wants to be a millionaire:
    A: 5 US miles.
    B: 15 US miles.
    C: 20 US miles.
    D: clearly more than 20 US miles.

    PS: Gabriels opinion would interest me alot, because I know his home airport. Greetings, btw .
    20 miles if really needed, 15 at max if not.
    And imo, as a person who uses meters instead of feet, i find it annoying that most of the times i am watching something (youtobe video, documentary, etc) that was made in America/by Americans they use feet/miles as a length/speed mesure, and i have to either calculate the distance in meters/kilometers or google the convertion.
