    Re: Its back together

    I woun’t worry about it! Take it apart If you wish because if you want it certified they will have to take it apart anyway. I have a freind that has a avionics shop and he won’t certify anything that looks like that. Get some jewlers screwdrivers and have at it. It is no big deal to take the glass off. I wouldn’t even consider the health as a reason because the risk is very minimual.

    Rotated in flight. It is pretty weak up there. A captain I was with one day put on the brakes before the push back tractor stoped pushing and it really jerked the nose gear hard. It sure felt like it was going to come out of the gear trunion.

    Here they are. this is not B.S. United sent the work out to a third part chop shop for maintenance. United is very good at covering up problems. Havn’t heard about this have you.

    I liked the old CO colors better than the new. That is the red meat ball. The big proud bird with the golden tail?

    Ours were so scratched up they were of very little use anyway. I never used them. The only windows we used were the L1, L2, R1, R2. the side windows were pretty bad also.

    For Example. They have been farming work out o third party chop shops and a one shop put the nose gear in wrong. It worked for a few trips correctly. On final in to ORD they deployed the gear and the nose tires were 90 degrees to the runway. the plane landed blew both tires, ground the rims down to the axles. I could tell you about engines failing out of overhaul. I will try and post some of the pictures.
