  1. Just when I thought I couldn't get more disgusted with this government I find something new

    Hence why I stopped looking at the Government. I agree he should get the MOH, but everyone is too scared of offending someone or in any way putting they're necks out for anything.

  2. A few weeks ago we had a new electrician perform an ops check on the "Manual APU generator handle" on the front of the left wheel well pod. No matter how hard he cranked he couldn't get it going. He had no choice but to write it up.

  3. Does anyone by any chance know the Part Number for the Flap Manual drive cable T handle? We've been having a rash of them torn up and can't find the number anywhere. The book shows the cable itself, but not the handle and I don't want to order a bunch of cable assy's just for the handle.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

  4. Wait a minute, how did that go through? Where are his bullets? I didn't see any community service or squadron extracurricular activities on there. How can you promote someone if they didn't get involved in the squadron Christmas party?

  5. On 93 and above H3's they have a reset button in the hellhole next to the crew ladder to reset the Nacelle overheat system after testing. Does anyone know the reasons behind it and why it's installed, also what would happen if it wasn't reset?

    Thanks.

  6. Thanks, over the years alot of crazy names for things have came about because of silly mistakes or omissions. Like calling the TD Amp inside the engine the "No Step Box"

    Checked/set out

    Don't forget the Article 15 switch.

  7. I was going thru the H-3 -1 the other night and noticed that there was a TCTO to remove the Engine LCD Gauges on 95-1001 and above ans replace them with analog. I was wondering if that was all of them or just select aircraft and for what reason. Spent some time in the desert with Minnesota a while back with the 95's and I loved those gauges, so much nicer than the analog.

  8. I went through some books last night at work, from what I can see, all the -1's list them as numbers. The 00GE and other Maintenance manuals list them as Fwd, Cntr, Aft. Seems they tell flight crews one thing and maintainers another....but wait, the Air Force would never do that.

  9. In ten years I think I've seen two planes with the LSGI lights working. Was told early on about them, but the first time I saw them light up blew my mind. All my planes we used them for spare bulb holders since the assemblies never worked.

  10. I got an RA of a KC135 just yesterday - in the pattern! :D

    We watch Junk-STARS and C-17's all the time during preflights. Maybe the Cobras IFF was turned off for some reason. I know it's not supposed to be, but I have seen stuff like that done "To make it more realistic" I dunno, I just hope they can still find survivors.
