Modification XXX

Postby expat » Sat Mar 31, 2012 1:05 am

I read this on another aviation website. It should certainly tickle Ozzy. Probably the reason for his Spit obsession
"A bit of a pickle" - British translation: A catastrophically bad situation with potentially fatal consequences.

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.

This almost proves that reincarnation is reality after all. One of those guys is Ozzy in a previous life.

I have come across the infamous beer transport method (I also have Tony Jonssons autobiography in my collection) before.
The funniest one I ever came across was when a Squadron "acquired" a large quantity of champagne and decided to smuggle it back to England in their Spits, to teach the boys a lesson their boss took them up to about 40,000 feet to see if the wire on the corks was solid ;D
They held but it was considered a serious test of nerve 8-)

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Fly high for a while and the beer becomes perfectly chilled.


This is a marvelous solution  ;D
