Beech 1900 pilot's; "Fly it like you stole it"
LOL...Just giving you a hard time! I once was called to Maintenance Control by our AFCM because he had recieved a misuse and abuse chit from AIMD after a flight I was on. I used to fly on the H-2...OK, so I am dating myself here. Anyway, we were out with a group of FRPs and the HAC instructor was my boss (OPS O ) and we were old squadron-mates. Anyway, the RADAR (LN-66) started to act intermittently and my boss asked me if it was TU or could I get it working. Well, I re-cycled power, checked all connections, switches, CBs, re-cycled power as per our troubleshooting procedures...No workie...I kicked it around where the waveguide went into the R/T and it worked...Intermittently, I still had to kick it to get it to work. I told the AFCM the truth and the MO tore up the chit and told the CO. CO, was my old CO at HSL-37 and told the AIMD officer to stop sending non-RFI crap to our squadron. This wasn't the first time we got a bad RADAR R/T bad from supply. I was glad that the old man backed me up, but he was my CO in HSL-37 and had me explain how we lost a MAD bird after the reeling machine failed to change speeds. Not our fault...it was corrosion...
Anyway, FLY SAFE and all the best with the new baby. Kids are the greatest blessing in your life. I have a 7-year old, and she isn't so sure about Dad's sailor stories...LOL
