Have I always succeeded, no. My point being, the leather on the seat is very nicely done. Perfect, maybe not. Is it just possible...... we sometimes get a wee bit too picky ??
....... Just food for thought.......
Your definitely right. And i hate being like this. Drives me nuts sometimes. You should see how i am working on aircraft ...

I think I can vision it Perfect isn't good enough
I have found that sometimes I have to give myself permission to be less than perfect, or I'll never get started.

Tuxedo, I have totally enjoyed all your threads of late. It reminds me of when I picked up my beast. That being said I think you need to stuff the manual away, grab the OCD or ACD meds, (whatever works) load up a cooler, and head out for a 1000 mile road trip

PS - this is meant in the most humorous way possible so please no one get bent

Theres nothing to get bent over. You both are spot on with your assessment. I wish i could head out on a road trip. Work dictactes otherwise tho. However i may take apart my engine this weekend and overhaul it as i found a spec of dust during inspection.

I know what you guys mean tho. Sometimes you get so deep in the forest you dont see the trees.
Thanks for the comments guys, it helps me not sweat the small stuff (as much).

Don't forget to change out the HEPPA Filters in the "clean room" shop! Oh Yea, who is your QCI (Quality Control Inspector) ? Ensure all the torque values are signed off on.

Have Fun Tuxedo

I remember the A & N ranges god.... I'm old

Some of the first Flight Simulators I worked on and flew in the Navy, had A & N Ranges programed in. I already had my Commerical & CFI before enlisting in the Navy, '71
