Someone put the floats on backwards, duh. :p

Oh, and maybe someone should have checked that right wing gas cap. LOL, oops.

I’ll see if I can find it again, it looks odd like some hybrid. Could have resulted from some drunken snake rave party.[emoji6]

Winner winner chicken dinner.

Looking at the actual magazine, if you look closely, the wicking fuel from the tank is also visible. Who knows, the fueler could have improperly secured it. So many unknown variables. Chit happens. A guy here locally decided to park his newly acquired Belanca (sp) on the right wing by (somehow) retracting the right main while hitting the boost pump at the fuel island. Odd, since the gear retract requires you to pull the lever out and then up where the boost pump switch is a spring rocker switch. Task saturation maybe???

Good thing it was just a quick photo shoot. A little yellow on the photo editor, and it would have been invisible.

You mean those batteries that expired 14 years ago? You mean they don't last forever?

They expired March if this year. So yeah, they were expired. By four months..... not fourteen years so I’m not really sure where you got the 14 years time frame.

Sorry - I was looking at what was the dot matrix style printing on the "copper" end - looks like it reads "05" on every one and figured that meant 2005. That was where the expiration date was marked until they moved it to the black section with the other labeling.

PSA to all - Duracell batteries are often counterfeited.
