Air Utopia

Just curious though as to where your organisation, Air Utopia, operates from.
Some technicians require only a blade screwdriver, two size shifting spanners and a large hammer to carry out complex aircraft maintenance tasks

Meanwhile, here at Air Utopia, technicians are paid to use the correct tool for each task.

Air Utopia's Engineer Trainer, has identified the flat blade screwdriver as the tool to be used for .......(wait for it) screwing slotted screws. At times people have tried to use it for phillip headed screws, pry bar, tooth pick, haemorrhoid probe, and to short starter motor terminals - he is still adamant that is for slotted screws.

Is like old saying from my russian friend - when all you have is hammer treat all problem like nail.
But we are not Russian Peasants, we are Aircraft Maintenance Engineers and as much as possible are REQUIRED to carry out tasks with the correct tools.

Mr Krystal and chips, I doubt very much that you are a trainer of engineers as you claim in your profile.

Cheers
BH
