Just to stick to the topic, it astounds me to see aircraft without engine covers.
I have been to airports where there is snow and freezing conditions to see the engines unprotected.
I have been to the sand pit to see the same thing in blowing sand.
It is a testament to engine designs and reliability we do not have more failures.
It is disgusting to know crews have no respect for, half a million plus, aircraft components that are there to give us the utmost of reliability.
I cost you 20 min of drinking time to cover your engines and to give you peace of mind.
Airmanship is a lost value.......................
