Default Still Awake.

They're all asleep Fin.
It's 0200 on the West Coast and 0500 in the East.

Pete.

PS. Which fuel line are you making.

Oh, and I haven't got an answer for your question - sorry.

Absolutely not. I work on a paper machine. It wraps up paper all night long and about 5 of us monitor the various systems that make it all happen - very boring.

The one shining light that keeps me going is that the paper we're making is being used to print the Victoria's Secret catalogs. I always bug my wife to go in their store so I can check out the catalog. No, we don't get samples at work.

Pete,
Nearly my bed time also. After finally deciding on the location of the fuel flow transducer, I am remaking the fuel lines to fit.

Fin.

Default Previous Life.

In my previous life I remember trying to stay awake at 0500hrs (in a different time zone to the one I took-off in)
Anything to help. An engine failure would have worked, but the punters wouldn't have liked it.

So it was mostly telling lies with the FO and drinking coffee.

As they say, "Pilots are strange people who talk about women when they are flying and about aeroplane when they are with women".

Sorry, Fin, I've hijacked your post.
Pete.

Does this help.

Default Redundant

I see you were a contibutor to the post, so it's of no help.

I assume you want to reuse a fitting.
If it's in good order I don't see why not.
Why don't you ask your friendly LAME.
Pete.
