That doesn’t actually become a critical mass until you get rid of the hollow and stir up the Polonium and Beryllium.

I would have searched for a more congenial bed partner personally.

Occasionally the THC content is actually labeled…but sometimes not.

Actually it is a critical mass as long as you have enough mass present. It achieves prompt super-criticality when placed in a solid configuration.

Long story.

And the retro boner. You didn’t mention that.

Which will not do a damn bit of good. Making such a suggestion on an aviation board is idiotic.

You are a liar, and this, with your first post. Unimpressive.

I found an awesome store called stateofmindlabs.com and bought THCP distillate, the main ingredient in CBD oil.
This is a bot, right?

No way you're a pilot.

Yes.

Please don't argue with the spam bots. Just report it, and let the professionals deal with them.

I have found a CBD supplier with third party testing that shows the THC amount is “non detectable”.

Wife says it is not worth the risk. She does not have arthritis

Anyone with personal or professional experience with CBD and FAA are welcome to chime in.

I’m not finding anything on the web from the FAA, or DOT.
Hi, just a quick question which hasn’t come up on searches on the forum. Are pilots with a class 1 medical in the uk allowed to use over the counter CBD oil? I know the general use of this is legal as of recent changes in the law but has this also become allowed with the CAA? I have also searched the CAA website but I’ve not come up with anything there either. My question came to mind having visited my local shop where i get my e-liquid (keeps me away from cigarettes!) and i noticed they are adding CBD to e-liquids which are not obviously CBD based products and i hear that CBD oil may also be added to drinks like coffee and milkshakes at certain outlets and it made me think someone could unintentionally consume this so if they were a pilot in the uk could this cause them an issue? Many thanks

Probably best to ask this question at pprune.org. This is site is primarily US based pilots.
