Now I know why they called him Merlin the Magician, because where ever I move I still feel like I have his wand sticking up my ass.

Damm Rosie the riveter put the cowling on with rivets so they don't work loose in flight, however just gives us maintainers issue each time. Bloody management thought it was a good idea.....

I'd love to call it, but I think I'd better leave it to the current CapCom poster Traffic_Is_Er_Was.

I've spent ten hours off the ground up here - I think I'll add it to my pilot's log book.

That's about it done to death. Good entries all round, but in homage to all those old maintenance jokes, the winner is Wensleydale with:
"Bl**dy Pilots. No 1 engine missing, 'e reports and blow me if its still 'ere"!
Once it's nuts are properly adjusted and signed off, the CST will on it's way to you!
