After every flight, 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.

P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement.

I spent six months on Southern Watch with an F15 squadron. One of my guys radios and asked me to meet him at tail number xx-xxx. I get there and the pilot says he won’t fly unless we change out a couple of his 120s because the radomes are stained. I explain this is not a defect per tech order. He is adamant because, “When I was in Alaska, they were always snow white.” I told him he could fly without those two or pray for snow and drove off. Next day his sq commander comes around, asked to see the TO. After reviewing and asking a couple questions, he thanked me and left.

Probably the funniest exchange I ever saw involved my boss and a QA puke. We were prepping something I no longer recall to deploy. QA comes around and watches for a while, looks through the TO and generally acts like a fag. I see him pick up a can of spray paint, make a few notes and walk out. Couple days later, my boss shows me a write-up. Seems the black paint we used was not the mil-spec listed in the TO. He answered it, “We used what base supply had available. After monitoring for 24 hours, surfaces painted showed no adverse reactions. Nomenclature, NSN and other pertinent information clearly discernible. I stand ready to accept full responsibility for any failure to function caused by said paint.”

So have you bought him his first rifle yet? If not, you are lagging!

Congrats!
