Ron Hare - Big Picture Man
Had the Pleasure of being trained by Ron on the 727!
Running around the panel on day one went something like this --
Ron - what are those things there on the panel?
Sos- What things?
Ron - all those Gauges there - ( pointing with the newspaper - Company issue)
Sos- what the fuel gauges
Ron - yes very good , now what are they for ?
Sos- (very puzzled now ) reading the quantity of fuel in each tank.
Ron- CORRECT ! - they are fuel tanks NOT air tanks and don't let the 2 monkeys
Sitting in front of you tell you any different!!
Now I am one of those monkeys in the front but the many words of wisdom from Ron still come back to me.
Fond memories
