Crazy I just stumbled on this. I was a Hull Tech in the US Navy from 92'-97'. Went to the Stennis when she was still pre-comm in Newport News. Worked all over that ship. Trials were a trip. Good memories. Look forward to the day she's decommissioned so I can get my "Plank".

[@calamity075]

What i find amazing about this kind of operating on an aircraft carrier is that knowbody knows beforehand who they're dealing with, you work on a jet piloted by someone you don't actually know. On top of a ship you don't really know who's driving. Depending on people who you've only seen on there on deck making sure everything happens safely. And it all runs smoothly and everyone is safe and well. Literally a couple thousand people thrown on a ship coming from all around and doing their own thing making sure someone else can do theirs. Amazing.

[@AlexBowman_Ventures]

Agreed! Nicely put

When I was in the Air Force I was a Crew Chief on F-15s. We used to crack up when the pilots would come out and do their aircraft walk around. They would walk by look at a tire, shake whatever was on the bomb rack. I always thought that was funny.

[@TFT-bp8zk]

That meant that they trusted you and the jet and didn't feel the need to really dig into the preflight walkaround checklist to see if you tried to send them out in a down jet. Just a cursory inspection for real red flags that would make them question the maintenance signoff for accepting a jet that's gonna kill them.

first off, that is basic, if you can't trust your girl to go out alone and not cheat on you, there is something really wrong with your relationship. Second, she WILL find other men attractive, and it is perfectly fine lol... there are more attractive men than you out there, trust me... it doesn't mean she needs to cheat on you because someone else is more attractive.
