As much as I’d like to laugh as any Russian military stupidity, the aircraft in the picture doesn’t appear to have propellers attached, so it’s likely in some form of maintenance. Without the weight of engines and props, any strong wind over the wings is likely to move the plane around quite a lot. Putting tires on the wings disrupts the lift and helps keep the plane from moving around in storms.

Airline pilot. Surprisingly low technical knowledge required considering how computerized airplanes are.

A housing crash is only bad for you if you’re either outright selling, or moving to a less expensive house.

Very true. It does very occasionally do some strange things, but then we just either disengage the autopilot, or change modes to something simpler while we try and figure out what went wrong (it’s almost always that we’ve made a mistake).

I bought my wife’s ring from Diamondère. She wanted a sapphire and they have a lot of non diamond options.

Yes, so outright selling, or moving to a less expensive house, voluntarily or not.
