Hey, what about us guys as what fixed them so they would make all
those neat noises?  Sheesh, give a guy a break here!  Without us, you
all'd be doing a lot more hanger flying than real flying!  "There I
was at 50,000 feet, flat on my back, the weather so bad it was 0/0 in
the cockpit.  Then all of a sudden, the generator quit gennin', the
crankshaft quit crankin' and the pistons quit goin' up and down."

And, yes, I got a few hours in behind them too.

Best regards,

Michael, K3MXO/KH6 ...
