I asked the Check CPT to change the bulb, he agreed. After pushing the light assy back I switched on the master annunciator lights test switch (without asking....)oops:rolleyes:
All green gear lights on, all red gear lights on, all three low oil pressure warning lights on, plus some others, can't rememeber. My face became red, dark red... The CPT wasn't amused, so was the FE... Okay, check ride passed, because my flying wasn't bad, but lesson learned. What I didn't know was that this happened a few times before on our fleet and somewhere it was written to do the master ann light test only on ground:= |
Never had a bulb failure, had a nav light hanging by a wire though, circumstances required a ground handler cut the wire and pass to me for later fitment when we got home.

737s...
Most all the lights are very simple to replace. If there is a spare.
Had a few fall out from the upper panel from time to time. |
I thought the most dangerous thing in a cockpit was a pilot with a Swiss Army knife….
