Danny,bit of `sideslip` here,but Smuj will no doubt be along to regale tales of `hammock slinging`...I think it was/is the first important part of the GE`s Course..
There have been several occasions where GEs have not made it back to the crew accomodation as they have worked overnight to get `Albert` (C130) serviceable,and have been found peacefully snoring when the Flt Eng turned up..They were well known for cat-napping anywhere,even across bar-stools....!
Great bunch of guys,and now dolls ,even...
