Back when I was a CFI instructing in a 150 our mechanic came by and fixed something with our primer. He asked if something else was wrong and I told him my flux capacitor was also broken. He said "It doesn't matter, you aren't hitting 88mph anyway"

Sometimes the truth really does hurt.

*Capacitator.

It's an important distinction. A Capacitor is an electrical component that stores potential energy in an electric field. A Capacitator is an aviation component that uses kinetic energy to prevent airplane storage in a grassy field.
