This is my friend Bloke. You can tell he is a pilot because he is wearing sunglasses. Maintenance folks don't do that. Anyway, here he is pretending that he is a certified line boy by pouring oil into this CJ-6. It is important to note that he is actually pouring it into the oil tank, not the fuel tank. There is a difference, you know. For being so observant, Bloke was awarded a K&W "attaboy." Unfortunately, Bloke has a lifetime supply of "aw shits" to nullify any "attaboys" he may collect.
I am two thirds towards being a pilot, I have sunglasses and a big watch.
I am now saving for a plane.
Your lawyers are cheap, a friend recently paid a barrister $1,000 for a one hour chat and advice.
K&W is K&W Aviation at LaPorte where Bloke and I hang out on occasion. This is an interesting group of people who love aviation and alcohol. As a newbie to the aviation jargon, you need to know that "hangar" flying is almost as important as actually flying. Hangar flying is defined as consuming mass quantities of adult beverages while lying through your teeth to your friends who know you are lying through your teeth. This is what lawyers do, only they do it for $300 per hour. Aviators do it for free.
Oh, yes, I forgot. Pilots wear big watches which don't keep good time, especially the Russian ones. Then again, they don't care, because time is never a problem with them. They have lots of it which is spent wandering around airport shops and sipping Starbuck's coffee.
