Re: [St] Throttle cables



Sorry John, no disrespect intended. When I was a teenager I spent
summers flagging and driving a tanker truck for my uncle while he
sprayed all kinds of really nasty stuff on fields all over the Columbia
basin. He "drove" C-119s in Korea, and then moved on to "real piloting"
spraying crops after the war. That's how he talked about himself, and it
just rubbed off on me.

Sorry, I just want to beat myself in the head everytime someone says 
a pilot is a "driver". But your observation in correct.
My shut off drill goes
Kill switch to off,
Key to off,
Remove key,
Switch kill switch back to run,
Grab front brake for dismount.

store Key.
