Hurrah! (But do tell, did it float?) So you got your fuel draw back |
surely we should draw a line under all of this......
|
Sharpen up, there's plenty of lead left in the pencil yet.
|
These pencil jokes are getting a bit pointless....
|
A bit blunt.
|
Without wanting to draw a shade over the whole incident just yet..... Did the pencil float or not..?
|
Hopefully, there's a lesson here, to follow proper procedures when fuelling or checking tanks. Don't try to cut corners, Dot the I's and cross the T's. Don't entrust someone who's known to be not the sharpest pencil in the box.Sometimes, you just have to be blunt and make a pointed refusal to let them near.

High lead fuel = pencil floating
Low lead fuel = pencil sunk :} |
Spoke to engineers this morning.
Pencil was floating just below the surface. Luckily after taxying a/c to hangar pencil was visible from fuel filler cap so was easily retrieved. |
Was this written up?
|
I bet he drew the Mont blanc on that one.
|
So the saga has drawn to a close?
|
I decided not to give the culprit a written warning though it was a bit of a "hard" call.
|
No paper mate?
|
If it had been a Swiss PA38, the registration would have started HB-
|
Very black day in Cyprus. 5B-
|
.... all these one liners.....
|
Could you please post an image of the pencil?
BP, are you Sheldon Cooper? |
I can't think of anything to add to this thread. Someone's drained all the lead from my pencil! :eek:
MJ:ok: |
Just think of the extra thrust you'd have got if it had been a propelling pencil!
