You could also just get Evergreen to knock the dust off some of those museum pieces and turn them into water bombers. SMRT.

It's a big concern for us, we've talked about where to move before it becomes an issue :/
I think that outfit’s shenanigans finally caught up with them a few years back. Anything serviceable is long gone if I am not mistaken. The front lawn of the water-park air-museum is a vineyard now….
they're not just declining new inquiries, they're straight up canceling
ask me how I know!
fuck this state
Wtf? Really? I mean I know that whole outfit got it's super shady start doing "totally not US government stuff" in Vietnam, but that museum was AMAZING. Like, damn near Smithsonian Air and Space level stuff. Had a buddy that worked there for a bit, got some insider tour stuff. Super nerdy place for a fella like me.
Shifty. Insurance is a racket all around.
Full disclosure - I drive past that museum about twice a week, but have never visited. So, I have no idea what’s going on in there. Several years ago it was all over the local papers that Evergreen was going under and liquidating all assets. Fire sale on tankers… Everyone just assumed that sketchy CIA missions were drying up or more likely just getting contracted to someone else.
(I assume that last sentence just got us all on a list somewhere…)
As a tanker company, they got in big trouble a few years back for faking/falsifying data and operating helicopters way outside of the mfrs limits. They basically made their own "limits", leading to several catastrophic accidents. I think that ended them as a company...the museum has managed to survive?
"Fuck off and find somebody else's hands." -Allstate, probably.
Yet another home insurance giant quietly stops writing new policies in California
Allstate, one of the largest property and casualty insurance providers in California, hit...
The Upper Atmosphere Is Cooling, Prompting New Climate Concerns
Scientists are worried about the effect this change could have on orbiting satellites, the ozone layer, and Earth’s weather.

In the spring of 2020, the Arctic had its first full-blown ozone hole with more than half the ozone layer lost in places, which von der Gathen blames on rising CO2 concentrations. It could be the first of many.
Between 60 and 70, that's the sweet spot.
Perhaps you're unfamiliar with the idea of a tipping point.
They didn't mean instantly.
well there have been quite a few....
You must be really mad at the jetsons.....
As the kid pointed out "Unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years"
Congrats on screen shoting a screen shot deliberately crafted to be miss leading.
Highlighting 2 disjointed parts so that the eye skips the "Why" part of the equation in the middle is a pathetic tactic.
im getting one of those new fangled lithium mines in my backyard in the near future....
we care alot.
Hadn't heard Florida. But two of the large insurers aren't offering policies in California any longer.
Which concerns Coloradans somewhat.
we're all watching yellowstone and moving to montana!
Beth and I saw every season and it looks great! Never winter! The kids are gonna love petting all the bison!
I don't understand the blanket decision to pull entirely out of California. High fire hazard areas? Sure. But the whole state? When my family moved to the Sierra foothills in 2015, there were a number of insurers who flat out would not write a policy, but still operated in the state (this was right after the Rough Fire).
My current suburban home on the central valley floor is not exactly at a high risk of being torched by wildfire. Anyone have any special insight into the world of insurance? Seems like it would be way more profitable to keep operating in low-risk areas. But,
compared to kentucky all of california is a high fire hazard area.
Compared to Kentucky, the entire western half of the country is a high fire hazard area, no?
yeah but california is the best
we have more morons setting them off with gender reveal parties and leftover campfires than anyone!
Indeed. Our morons are so plentiful, we're exporting them to the rest of the country.
I can't help but laugh at all the coastal fucks moving to boise, bozeman, texas or florida.....the stark reality of mild coastal california weather being the reason people moved the other direction decades ago is slapping them in their smug, frost bitten, and swamp sweaty faces
These are people that live indoors. All their lives.
The Midwest is next...You'd think that these people would move to the Midwest... low cost of living, easy living indoors.
The important thing to remember is that these transplants are making life better for the locals.
Anecdotal: I know of 3 family units either actually moving or seriously talking about moving from CO to SC because "it's affordable".
I could give a shit how affordable it is, I'm not moving anywhere south of Mason/Dixon.
