We had a pilot at Nellis in the early 80's who for his walk around inspected darn near everything. Then one day a crew chief told him "Look Sir, you're not buying it only renting it for an hour". From then on he did the quickest walk thur ever.

Had one at Laughlin on T-38's that would bring his own screwdriver and would start disassembling the acft. Didn't cease and desist until the DCM explained that he was qualified to fly them not fix them.

This was the cartoon I did for the Laughlin Rag. I was poking fun at the instructor with the screwdriver but it was not well received by the DCM.
