Sorry Stevef you are correct.... nothing wrong with your eyesight.

We will now have to correct the answers to Items 1 and 2 of course.
Both are obviously pointing to the white background. !

Given that the initial question is referring to the cases as the crankshaft, I think you will be doing pretty well describing all the various little bumps and flanges. The guy is a novice eager to learn about the major components of a piston engine. Sure the later angle valve injected engine is not the norm but it will provide the answers he is seeking.

Trying to score brownie points, and impress, is probably best left to the bar on a Friday night.

I happen to work in a hangar where I am one of 3 LAMES, all hold professional pilot licences and we have over 10,000 hours between us.
We know what Pilot's are taught.... and having held and operated both types of licences over the past 30 years we get to see on on a daily basis the depth of such knowledge.
Your remark regards pilot technical knowledge has got our week off to the best possible start, we will be chucking and chortling all week long now.

Thanks again for the laugh
