We got to the plane, and when I did the walk-around I found a massive oil leak on the # 3 engine. We took a 4 hour delay while they fixed it - this before starting a 15-hour duty day.

Captain grumbled at me, "You know, you could have kept the oil leak to yourself...." Ahh... tell me again the superiority of the Anchorage breed....
