The most difficult thing about flying is knowing when to say no.

After over a half a century of flying I can not remember even one trip that I refused to do that resulted in someone getting killed because of my decision not to fly.

Always, always remember to wash your hands BEFORE taking a piss after working with Skydrol. You will only make this mistake once I assure you.

Don't look up when walking under the leading edge of a Boeing.

Skydrol makes good paint stripper (though not as good as rain repellent).

Converting one whole plane from Skydrol back to 5606 isn't fun (changing seals, blowing lines, getting soaked). Converting three is insanity.

Stupid fucking MS fittings never go together right when it is running down your arms into your coveralls.

Most gloves are only useful for melting away when they come in contact with Skydrol.

Olive oil is your best friend.

Yep, it floats the Skydrol off your eyeballs. Not pleasant but sure beats that burning sensation.

The very best releif for SKYROL and eyes are milk creamers although the medical staff worries about the bacteria I can gaurantee they havent been floored by the sting of a good skydrol dousing I have....a couple of times! MILK CREAMERS hope you dont have to try it.

apparently if you wear contacts and get a squirt of skydrol in the eye you're going to lose sight as the lens melts onto the eye.
