Funny pic/gif thread...

Just in case you need a laugh: UPS Airlines


Remember it takes a college degree to fly a
plane, but only a high school
diploma to fix one; a reassurance to those of
us who fly routinely in our jobs.
After every flight, UPS pilots fill out a form,
called a 'gripe sheet,' which
tells mechanics about problems with the
aircraft. The mechanics correct the
problems, document their repairs on the form,
and then pilots review the gripe
sheets before the next flight.


Never let it be said that ground crews lack a
sense of humor. Here are some
actual maintenance complaints submitted by UPS
pilots (marked with a P)
and the solutions recorded (marked with an S)
by maintenance engineers.

By the way, UPS is the only major airline that
has never, ever,
had an accident.



P: Left inside main tire almost needs
replacement.

S: Almost replaced left inside main tir e.

? P: Test flight OK, except auto-land very rough.


S: Auto-land not installed on this aircraft.

? P: Something loose in cockpit

S: Something tightened in cockpit

? P: Dead bugs on windshield.

S: Live bugs on back-order.

? P: Auto pilot in altitude-hold mode produces a
200 feet per minute descent

S: Cannot reproduce problem on ground.

? P: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.

S: Evidence removed.

? P: DME volume unbelievably loud.

S: DME volume set to more believable level.

? P: Friction locks cause throttle levers to
stick.

S: That's what friction locks are for.

? P: IFF inoperative in OFF mode.

S: IFF always inoperative in OFF mode.

? P: Suspected crack in windshield.

S: Suspect you're right .

? P: Number 3 engine missing.

S: Engine found on right wing after brief
search

? P: Aircraft handles funny. (I love this one!)

S: Aircraft warned to straighten up, fly right
and be serious.

? P: Target radar hums.

S: Reprogrammed target radar with lyrics.

? P: Mouse in cockpit.

S: Cat installed.

An d the best one for last

? P: Noise coming from under instrument panel.
Sounds like a midget pounding on
something with a hammer.

S: Took hammer away from midget.

How

I've always wanted to share these, seems like the perfect thread. :)

In San Antonio, Texas there is this car dealership on 410 (and Summit) that has an Indian in front of it. It's been there for YEARS, and it always makes me crack up!

From one side it looks like something else than what the other side really shows. See for yourself:

Now that's funny!

Melinda,

Growing up in San Antonio, that car dealership used to be located on lower Broadway near downtown. Coming north out of downtown, everyone would see what they thought was a giant well hung indian on top of a building. LOL

During the late 60's through the 70's, I shot tournament archery and belonged to the local archery club.

We shot an indoor league every Wednesday night and sometimes after league we would go for pizza and beer. If enough beer was involved, we would load up, head downtown and shoot the giant indian with arrows from across the street. We never got caught.

Back in the mid 80's, I picked up a daily newspaper. Right on the front page were two pictures: one of the indian, and another of the dealership owner holding up boxes of hundreds of arrows that had been removed from the indian over the years. That cracked me up.

A tear came to my eye when the dealership closed downtown. I thought I would never see my dear friend, the indian, again. Then, they reopened out on the north expressway and there he was in all of his glory.

Seeing this picture, I might have to dust off my bow and go play cowboys and indians one more time. LOL

Thanks for the memories,

Stones

So that's why they moved him - because of YOUR arrows! :D :p

Seriously, great story to go along with the photos. :) Thanks for sharing, Paul.
