| This jet flew on a "Black Letter" initial for 3 months and even after QA hit it with 5 inspectors they couldn't find any delayed or active descrepancies to write up. It really pissed them off...it was a great frist jet. I was the Second Dedicated Crew chief on this jet the first DCC got lost in the desert around Luke and was pulled from the flightline for mental issues... |
