I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

On one aircraft the wash was pure methanol, 96 pints of the stuff. Tried to use it one, all it did was spread dirty liquid over everything.

Another time the tank leaked and the aircraft guard became drunk from the fumes.
