You couldnt be more wrong. Time and again there are continuing examples of the cretinous Tarmac crawlers looking for a nit-pick and a hit.
Is all in the name of "safety" of course and its their "job"...if you can call it that, but it pays well to be a prick.

For example. Local pilot topping up brake hydraulics..as allowed under Sched 8 pilot maintenance. But he was pushing the fluid up from the wheel into the reservoir, as opposed to adding fluid at the top. Shifts any bubbles up...as you do.
This was deemed to be.."adjusting the brakes" by the TT/Tarmac T*rd, thus maintenance to be done LAME.
At the end of the argument the pilot got done $550 penalty for not entering this "top up" into the MR.

SO be warned ,,in the latest edition of Sched 8 is a new clause..where it says..action to be entered into the MR.... "where appropriate "...but what is not specified. In this case the TT made the call.

Now of course, there is one seriously pissed of GA pilot and the sky is now much safer from falling aeroplanes.

Sing the chorus then.." Safety, safety, safety, Empty skies for all...."
