I've heard of people being asked in an oral, "where is there dope and fabric on the CRJ?" And "what is the stick shaker limitation on the CRJ?"

My hardest was to draw the Piper Arrow hydraulic system with all relief valves and pressures for my CFI oral.

The one I had to think the most about was my CFI:

Why do students learn?

-Motivation, or because they LOVE ramen noodle salaries

Was perplexed by on of the posts about the weight of the earth and I just had to find out -

5.972 sextillion metric tons, or

5,972,000,000,000,000,000,000 tons.

Toss a few more steaks on the grill and grab another beer, cuz it must be one of the weekly backyard BBQs that I throw every summer!

My favorite question back in the day was "Your captain shows up in the lobby in a dress when meeting for dinner - what do you do?"
