OOoohhh!!! ADG (accessory drive gearbox) change! VERY frightening!!!

Not a change we have to pull the ADG along with gutting the left wheel-well to do the repair.

Still pretty dang frightening!!!

You don't work the F-16 depot stuff do you? My ANG base recieved two 16s from depot about a month ago that went through Falcon Star (85-1554 and 86-1234)...they're still grounded from stuff we're finding during acceptance. Both came in with red X write ups for the 341 bulkhead (stress critical) deep chafing from the anti-skid harness being routed wrong in both wheel wells. And who the heck is gorilla torqing the ventral panels??? Took me a day to remove both ventral panels after breaking a dozen apex bits per panel trying to bang the screws loose.

234 had to remove the left LE flap for bad cables, and I had to remove 2-3 and 3-4 torque tubes on 554's right LE flap for a broken canon plug bracket which resulted in asymmetry brake re-rig and flap ops check.

It all pays the same...lol.

It's split-up knida' like flights (you know A flight- B flight kinda' thing). I'm not going to make any comments on the rest of your post because....well...just because.
