My hot tip for the day is when you're unsure about anything, enter the hold and dial up IOC, have them patch you through to the RAAF headquarters in Australia or my place in Kowloon. I'll personally enter a deep meditation and channel the aviation god and deliver divine aeronautical advice from the creator.
Another option is to run a CRM model and work through the problem in a clear and concise manner. I like to use the "T.O.S.S" model when things get a bit curly.
T ... Talk about yourself like you've never talked before
O... Observe the faces of those pretending to listen
S ... See the guy next to you burst into tears from laughter
S ... Seek help for delusions of grandeur
I'll be signing autographed copies of FCOMs today in the street, $19.95 and the proceeds go to NAMBLA
