Recently, my mechanic showed me the list of squawks I’d told him about in recent texts, phone calls, and even e-mails. At the top of the list, he’d added one important item, “Fix Frank.”
In over 30 years of aircraft ownership, I’ve always tried to work with my mechanics to give them flexibility in the job and I try never to be seen as that demanding customer who just expects things fixed quickly. Apparently, I’d begun to fail miserably in that latter desire and, fortunately, my mechanic felt he could, um, educate me.
