There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Finally found it...

Wonder if they have a contract with the USAF for flight line ?
A local man, with a light plane wanted to know if they had prop wash. It is hard to find since the airlines went to jets.
Boy Scout wants a left hand smoke smoke shifter for the campfire

C5 engines had a certain hydraulic line for the thrust reverser that was a bear to get on. The line fitting at the TR actuator was just a hair short. We had a conduit stretcher in the CTK. Always sent the new kid to get it.
I always sent them after a box of #20 or #32 safety wire holes, compressor air cleaner, turbine wheel hub light, thrust reducer.
When I worked on the flightline on Phantoms I would send them back to the hangar for cockpit flush, speed drive fluid, intake and vari ramp speed wax, tail pipe carbon off and a myriad other non existent parts and tools.
One night I sent a new kid back to the hangar for a jet light (that was real). He didn't come back. I found him in the ready room drinking a coke. When I asked him why he didn't get it, he said he knew I was joking and he didn't like being teased. I went in to the tool room, got the jet light and handed it to him. I told him that for the next week he was responsible for that light and whenever he came to work, he would check it out and have it with him until end of shift. He never questioned another thing anyone said.

Busted... :shocked:
As a young fella (yeah ancient history now) I worked in a hardware store, and the local painting mob used to send their all new apprentices down for all sorts of non-existent stuff.
One day, they sent the new bloke down for a small can of striped Red & White paint for a Barber's Pole..... so I added some red to a can of white paint & sent him back with it. Twenty minutes later he came back to tell me that it hadn't worked & the fella's on the job were pretty angry & upset; they wanted a proper replacement or a full refund. I opened the can, looked at the pink paint inside, closed it again, and told him to take it back & tell them they were all stupid, they'd just painted it on upside down.....
He didn't come back again! :thumbup:

When my brother worked on airplanes, he would send the line-boy to get some prop-wash.
