I found out something slightly annoying today.

One of the blokes on�our shift is leaving the RAF soon, and as a�swansong he got�to go on a troop run staging through�Bangor (Maine, not North Wales) which should have 3-4 days in th US.� They were getting ready to leave Bangor when the engine started smoking and dumped all of it's oil.� The engine needed to be changed, but the jet wasn't safe enough to fly the distance required over the pond to get home, so it was decided to change the engine in the States.� IIRC it took 3-4 days to sort out tools, a new engine, a team to change it and transport to Bangor.� The engine change usually takes a few days with quite a lot of tests to be carried out on it.� All this got done, they were then running up the engine to come home, when the new one went belly up and was going to need changing � IIRC things were complicated by the fact that the engine they'd put in was the last one we had serviceable at base .�
The upshot of this is that a 4 day trip for one guy has ended up being over 2 weeks now, and they still aren't home as far as I know.

Take it from a person who grew up in the Northeastern US. Bangor, Maine is not all that pleasant this time of year

Terminus is not happy.

His carriers are transiting the Malacca straights to go after my battleships.

Mynok, either you've turned down the power on your implant to a minimum, or it's malfunctioning. Onime isn't even BEGINNING to plumb the depths of proper grump...

This is what my friends do when theyre bored.

My buddy's Pontiac GTO.

This is what I do when I'm bored and there's nothing to make an IED out of

and I'm at home. Creating things is so much more positive (at least thats what I've been told)

Getting stuck for 2 weeks in Bagor ME is no thrill...unless you fish.

Bit of a vicious circle. Grumpiness is probably what started the trouble in the first place.
