    PBT - happy birthday for yesterday :) :T

    Budgie :wave: Hope all is well

    HB - POSTURE!!!! Don't sit with your lappy on the sofa. Sit at a proper table on a straight backed chair. Sit up, woman!!!! ;):D

    Leigh - Fantastically well done this week, chap!! Keep that focus.... ;) :T :T

    I didn't watch the debate, I wasn't allowed :rotfl: particularly as Outnumbered was on the other side..... but let me guess. They are all a bunch of crooks who spent the entire time point scoring and slating the other two. Am I close?

    I DID complete the challenge, though :D :T :T

    4 for the challenge and a big 9 (out of 15!!!) for me this month so far. I think I'm liking this 'no target' mullarkey ;)



    Happy Friday everyone!!!

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Morning all :wave:

    It's an old one, but a funny one...

    After every flight, Qantas pilots fill out a form, called a "gripe
    sheet," which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The
    mechanics correct the problems, document their repairs on the form,
    and then pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never
    let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humour. Here are some
    actual maintenance complaints submitted by Qantas' pilots (marked with
    a P) and the solutions recorded (marked with an S) by maintenance
    engineers. By the way, Qantas is the only major airline that has never
    had an accident.... Enjoy!



    P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.
    S: Almost replaced left inside main tire.



    P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.
    S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.


    P: Something loose in cockpit.
    S: Something tightened in cockpit.


    P: Dead bugs on windshield.
    S: Live bugs on back-order.


    P: Autopilot in altitude-hold mode produces a 200 feet per minute
    descent.
    S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground.


    P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.
    S: Evidence removed.


    P: DME volume unbelievably loud.
    S: DME volume set to more believable level.


    P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick.
    S: That's what they're for.


    P: IFF inoperative.
    S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode.


    P: Suspected crack in windshield.
    S: Suspect you're right.


    P: Number 3 engine missing.
    S: Engine found on right wing after brief search.


    P: Aircraft handles funny. (I love this one!)
    S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right, and be serious.


    P: Target radar hums.
    S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics.


    P: Mouse in cockpit.
    S: Cat installed.


    And the best one for last..................


    P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget
    pounding on something with a hammer.
    S: Took hammer away from midget
