Scratch one MAKE THAT TWO F18s -Truman 'failed arrestment/eject'

How about the guy who goes full up? Or gal maybe? Rudders pedals fully extended towards you. Since we are talking about comparison to F/A-18, this is akin to the person who extends the lumbar support extender (only people who use it are tiny people) which is fully impossible to reset once you are in the seat. So you have to unstrap and get back out. Terrorists

Why are the seat different in every plane? Some canted to the right, other the left, useless lumbar, etc. Can never get a consistent good seat position across the fleet.

Did get to a plane the other day and MX was there installing a new seat cushion. Never seen one so fluffy and fresh.

The motherless, feckless monsters who keep locking the shoulder harnesses on the 220 will have a comeuppance, I say....

Another neat feature of the Guppy is that one side or another of the shoulder harness will just lock up on its own. I swear one of these days I’m going to be awkwardly reaching backward and up over my shoulder to shake it loose and my entire back/shoulder are going to seize up.

One of the more realistic bits of Sully was him arthritically donning the shoulder harness.
 
Just looking it up, the Red Sea has an average depth of 1610 ft, maximum of 9,970 ft, with 40% by area less than 330 ft.

Obvs. they’re not saying exactly where these contributions to Davey Jones’ locker were made, but it might be shallow-enough for another country or an eccentric oligarch to go treasure hunting.

This type of search and recovery mission (find it before someone else does) echoes the movie Men of Honor about BMC Brashear.
