ROFL!!!!!!!!

However its now happened to me twice and I am starting to get concerned - if it happens a third time, I'm going to go into full aggro mode.

Q: Whats happened you ask?

A: When I ask someone to write something up and they say "Didn't you know about that? Its been doing that a bit lately"

Surprise one - a sticking Cessna flap switch that resulted in a forced landing, thankfully on the runway.


Surprise Number Two - Tower gives me clearance to take off yesterday and when I gunned it (in best 1-2-3 fashion) the engine simply died, leaving me sitting on the Piano Keys like a total pratt. Fortunately it restarted, but it almost did it again during a forced landing practice.

Response when I get back? "Aww is it doing that again?"

Personally I think the accelerator pump needs looking at.
