So, I've figured out why Brisby is always posting on the forums saying he's been so busy jet-setting around the world -- all the talk about him being an engineer travelling to exotic locations, working ridiculous hours, and living out of a suitcase are all part of his cover story! He's actually been stealthily working under the clever alias "Steven Slater", whilst enjoying free flights and meals courtesy of JetBlue airlines. On ya Brisby, nice one bruvaa!! :)

12:42 AEST Tue Aug 10 2010

A flight attendant has been arrested after he got into an argument with a passenger,

swore over the plane's loud speaker, grabbed a beer from the galley, deployed an

emergency exit slide and fled the plane, authorities say.

JetBlue flight attendant Steven Slater, 39, remains in custody after the incident, which

happened while the plane was arriving at New York's John F Kennedy International

Airport on Monday.

Slater was working on JetBlue Flight 1052 from Pittsburgh when he got into an

argument with the passenger, who was pulling down baggage from an overhead bin,

the Port Authority said.

The luggage apparently struck the attendant in the head, and he asked for an

apology, but the passenger refused, the agency said.

As the plane was landing, Slater got on the public-address system and swore at the

passenger, the Port Authority said. He then grabbed at least one beer,

activated the slide, slid down and went to his car, it said. :)

Port Authority police were notified about 25 minutes later.

Slater was arrested at his nearby home in the Belle Harbor section of Queens by

Port Authority of New York and New Jersey police on charges of criminal mischief,

reckless endangerment and trespassing. He remained in custody on Monday night.

JetBlue Airways Corp said in a statement that it was working with the Federal

Aviation Administration and Port Authority police to investigate the matter.

It said the safety of its customers and crew members was never at risk. JetBlue

would not say how long Slater had been employed by the company.

man this dude should get a medal! anyone who slides out of a plane with beer after telling someone to get f**ked over the planes PA deserves some awesome award!

i would of been laughing so hard if i saw this actually happen lol

Hey, the first pic is close, not sure about the second pic though. I saw this on the news this morning and thought

"what a man, tells em to get faked, necks a beer and pops the emergency slide to get the fark out of an undesirable place" ... what a man :down:

lol Bris, i was just thinking of starting a thread on this too, as the similarity is pretty close in some pics 'till i saw this thread - beaten to it, damn :thanks:

    • FWIW, I've aerated oil, and cams snapped. You can figure out the rest 🥲
    • Depending on the hose, sometimes engine out is the easiest option  
    • Get an inspection camera up there. 
    • Yeah, but look at the margin in viscosity between the 40 and the 60 at 125°C. It is not very large. It is the difference between 7 and 11 cP. Compare that to the viscosity at only 90°C. The viscosity axis is logarithmic. The numbers at 90 are ~15 and ~35. That is about half for the 40 wt oil and <half for the 60. You give up viscosity EXPONENTIALLY as temperature rises. Literally. That is why I declare thicker oil to be a bandaid, and a brittle one at that. Keep the oil temperature under about 110°C and you should be better off.   Having said all of that, which remains true as a general principle, if you have indeed lost enough oil from the sump that the pump was seeing slightly aerated oil, then all bets are off. That would of course cause oil pressure to collapse. And 35 psi is a collapse given what you were doing to the engine. Especially if the oil was that hot and viscosity had also collapsed. And I would put money on rod or main bearings being the source of the any noise that registered as knock. Hydraulic lifters should be able to cope with the hotter oil and lower pressure enough to prvent too much high frequency noise, although I am willing to admit it could be the source.
