    I had to take it for a test flight yesterday afternoon after they had finished the work.

    First time ever flying it with just me on board (strangely, no one else wanted to come after both engines had been pulled apart and put back together again...)

    So, not much fuel and one person on board it was quite the rocket-ship. :D

    Surprised that not one of the people that worked on the engines goes on the first test flight

    When the submarines were maintained in Sydney they used to always send one of the dockyard staff who had worked on the overhaul/refit one the first five that the boat did

    They used to select that person at random by putting all the names of every person who had worked on the overhaul into a bucket and picking out one lucky passenger. It had the desired effect that everyone would make sure that they did their job well or worse they might end up sitting on the ocean floor unable to resurface.
