A salute to the AMTs![]()
You might be an Aircraft Mechanic if.......
You've ever slept on the concrete under a wing.
You've ever said "Oh yes sir, it's supposed to look like that."
You know what skydrol tastes like.
You wash your hands before you go to the restroom.
You have a better bench-stock in the pockets of your uniform than the supply system.
You can sleep anywhere, anytime, but as soon as the engines shut down you are wide awake.
You've ever stood on wheel chocks to keep your feet dry.
Wondered where they keep finding the idiots tha keep making up stupid rules.
You've used a wheel chock as a hammer.
You ever wished the pilot would say "great airplane".
You have "scuba dived" a lav tank to remove everything under the sun.
You have seen the "northern lights" inside the cabin while being shocked by a gallast.
You have told someone that you are an aircraft mechanic only to have them say, "But not on the engines....right?"
You have wanted to put your foot up a pilot's butt on many occasions.
You have wished you had chosen a different career.
