Lightnings were quite labour intensive, however I think the Lear Jet and Fairchild Metro were the most horrible to work on, followed by early Citations.
The Herald rudder was prone to freezing, we used to pack the lower bearing with grease 7 in a sort of pyramid so the moisture would run off.
Bae 146 engine changes paid off my mortgage.
Best to work on was F27.
