Really, if gore isn't your thing, don't click!!!!!!

The story: a mechanic was inspecting a 737 for an oil leak, when his hat was sucked off of his head. He then reactively reached for it and was sucked into it. No, he didn't make it. Bad day for everyone there. He was a very experienced mechanic that unfortunately make a HUGE mistake. For those of us that work on live aircraft, these things make my skin crawl. One simple mistake and it's OVER! The new jet I am working on is dang scary. It has a mind of it's own.

What's ironic is that I posted this thread, then on Tuesday during the ice storm, I get a branch through my roof lol.

Wicked. I'd fix the roof and leave the piston in the wall. Put some plexiglass over it.

Me too id get a velvet rope and charge admission.....:biggrin:
