In the long ago as the distributor for a large airframe manufacturer our regulator required us to basically rebuild the aircraft as part of the rego process due to their insistence that the manufacturer and their regulator didn't have a clue.

Notwithstanding that, over the years we built up quite a collection of factory tools and instruments even a crib box (complete with leftover lunch).

Mate flew a Navy Tracker that had been through two refits in it's life, found himself going around in circles with a jammed aileron. Was an interesting carrier arrival.
Anyway investigation found a Grumman "torch" in the wingtip that must have been there from new.

And I'm still looking for that CR3 whizwheelsI dropped down the side of the side and hasn't been seen since.
