One Week!

Postby ozzy72 » Thu May 17, 2012 4:48 am

Till I'm staring at Ben Nevis, so only 6 days till I drop off the face of SimV for 3 days or so (unless I die horribly in some strange accident involving a Boeing high-fiving my face in the clouds).
So please guys, sponsor us to help those with cancer.

I know some of you have already sponsored us and thank you for doing so. For the rest of you, come on! Or else I'll have to start singing and you DON'T want that ;) ;D

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Well the last team training is done. Pen-Y-Fan once again, and we shaved over 20 mins off the time we did it a fortnight ago! Not bad for three old farts ;D ;D ;D
I'd forgotten how nice a hot shower and a cold cider (accompanied with bacon sarnies) could be. Role on Wednesday when we head off to fairest Scotland ;)

Forgot to mention that we started and finished in cloud and had a VERY close encounter with the Mountain Rescue Sea King (not for us real men I hasten to add).
Nearly had a rotor/face experience ;D ;D ;D
