Great, so another issued tool about as much use as tits on a fish (and for once I am not abusive to the boat driving service.......

So what you do is to take a knife of your own and if you get it past the movers and plod, get to your A/C and fly away.

You are then unfortunate enough to be involved in an incident which requires the services of a company who will give you a tie (or for multi engines etc and rotary wing ) involve a very scary descent to anywhere you can get it down........

On climbing out of the somewhat damaged A/C you are sitting back thinking "Thank the Lord for the fact I have walked away" when up comes a civvy plod and nicks you for carrying an offensive weapon........

My advice, find the best tool you can and keep it close.

Fly Safe.
