That must be how he got his diaphonous A&P. For the brightest apprintice that is two years and John is hardly bright or they wouldn't have made him crew chief which was nothing more than paperwork. > >Are you being purposefully obtuse?

An airplane is full of panels that need to be removed to get at something that needs repair and all these panels are held on by "screws", actually "Machine Screws". ands, as a general statement, are removed by electrical/electronic craftsmen in order to do their work. Now electrical/electronics craftsmen, in the Air Force are normally the product of a "Tech School" that the Air Force uses to turn some blundering idiot right off the street into a competent craftsman who can be of benefit to the A.F.'s mission. (there are some "tech" schools, although not electronic, that are 2 year, or longer in duration.) But in spite of all this training the A.F., for some reason, neglects. perhaps the most common task there E/E people do. Removing screws so that they can get to the "Gizmo" that has to be replaced. The use of a screwdriver, and thusly in addition to the electric gizmo the project turns into a fix all the damaged screws so the panel can be replaced and someone has to go out in the wind and the cold to rectify the "F- - k Ups". And that is the Machinist :-) -- Cheers, John B.
