Great stuff!
On The lighter side, I got a good story from my Dad, a now retired Capt, also from the wrong side of the curtain:
During an initial ground school for new F/O’s a crusty old Navigator is teaching the students all the intricacies of a CR-3 computer.
Suddenly, one student raises his hand and says to the old Nav: “I can do a thing with a CR-3, that you can’t do…”
- “Really? What could that possibly be?!” Replies the annoyed Navigator
- “I could put out a candle from 10 meters away…”
