Hmmm... where to start.
- Track and balance -100 series 412 M/R blades with original RADS.
- Rotorbrake change AS355
- Any electrical issues AS355
- One piece windshield change AS350 during winter.
- Trying to snap upper snaps on old BO105 main fuel cell AND getting the interconnect "donuts" to seal
- Cleaning/inspecting floor tunnels on EMS BO105
- Chasing a torque split on a 222 with 101-650s installed
- C-box change 212 without modified support.
- Bleeding oleo struts on SA315B
- Replacing main fuel cell 206L without the "zipper" opening.
- Packing Hughes 500 floats
- Packing BO105 factory 4-pack floats
- Packing S76 floats without a board
- Any maintenance I needed to take a boat to get to.
- And........
Almost makes me want to go back to work.... not. But we sure had fun.
