I ran into that a few times in torque specifications at my former place of employment. "100, +0/-8 ft.lbf torque. Set torque wrench to 100ft.lbf." Doing so, means taking a torque wrench, whose accuracy at the 100ft.lbf cardinal point is +/-4ft.lbf, and using it to torque said bolt. Well...

Mary's paycheck goes to her checking account; my retirement check goes to my checking account. The money in her account is hers; the money in my account is hers. Yes, Dear...:thumbsup::P

Good on ya, Joyce!! If'n you ever plan on heading up to Bolivar, M17, give me a shout ahead of time; we'll do lunch or dinner...

my condolences to you, Diana, and to Ricky's family...

So... Where are the serial numbers located on ECi jugs? Might as well verify that mine are or aren't ECi's. Sigh. Just spent one kilo bucks on a GM product that should never have failed, and now am looking at this, if I have these jugs. Double sigh.

you also had a pair of needle nose pliers, too!! :yikes: You never know what a pair of needle nose pliers can to to a B737...:eek::D

And a happy one from M17, too! :smile::yesnod:

Hmmmmm...... So that's where that mud on my left wing/stab came from! :D Looks like I picked the roughest track on the strip. Didn't climb as well as I wanted to either. Glad I was almost out of gas (as I had planned). I need to practice staying down in ground effect better too. I hear...

LOL!!:rofl:

Naw, the landing was ok (save for the geese, who didn't budge :rolleyes:), but the taxiing was interesting when I started to slog down in the parking area:eek::D.

Boy, I'm glad you didn't videotape my landing! :D That is a great video, Diana, and a great landing to go with it...

Six years, USN, plus 3 USNR. Electrician's Mate 1/C, USS Bainbridge CGN-25. Best memories: Too many to relate. Really!:thumbsup: Worst memories: Hmmm... Not worst, but most striking: Up in the Sea of Okhotsk. Bainbridge was tooling around, separated from our task force (we were the...

Maybe, if'n the field isn't too wet from Thursday's and Friday morning's rain.

Welcome to the boards, George! Also, there is a Big Boy in Kirkwood, MO, at the Museum of Transport. Last time I was there, they also had a Chrysler Turbine Car...

I for one don't like it, or them--the whole littoral concept. You're right, they are gas turbines, and have to stop by the friendly neighborhood supply ship all too often. also, they are inefficient, and big fat targets. I also don't like this idea that we don't need to worry about the sea...

Those are absolutely "loverly" photos, Diana! Well, except for the one where my ugly mug cracked the lens! :D I looked at the video of the deer that my still camera took; it wasn't very good at all. Part of that may be the operator--I've never used the video mode before:redface:. If'n it...

It was great to visit with Tom and Diana, Wayne and Rebecca, the Calloways, Joyce, and Marc today!

Sounds like a grand plan!!

Hey, Diana-- What time Saturday do you plan on eating? Mary and I would like to fly down, if we may...

Waidaminit! They call you, saying "It's broke" (implying *they* broke it), then charge you? Methinks you "otter" go down to the FBO and gently, kindly correct their error. Bet it wasn't broke before you handed the plane over to them to r/r the starter...
