I think B would write a book after she retires if we encourage her. She's talked about someone should and she'd be the perfect person.

The DE727UPS book would be great. I’m expecting this quality.

All I remember from being an F/E was generator loss: EDPM, protect essential power, download, power the unpowered buss, and monitor. For F/O it was: Window heat, Pitot Heat, Let's eat.

Curious why you say that? Airlines get ferry permits all the time, and I’d be surprised if some kind of “good enough” inspection doesn’t pencil out to be cheaper than trying to scrap them in whatever random place they were when the bomb dropped.

Every mechanic I have talked to has their doubts about the MD. A couple of weeks ago (before the retirement announcement), a mechanic said he was on one of the teams doing the inspections, and 9 out of 10 aircraft had major corrosion problems - beyond the point of repair - at the inspection points.

I'm with Scooter on this one.

I bet if I hollered “protect essential!” I could make some late 90s-early 2000s hires sit bolt upright.
