    Ew, you're sitting under a puffin! Your guys' new hangar is nice. Cape's should be done by now, hopefully get to check it out when I go back in November.

    HAHA, Nah, we brought it out from the museum across the street to display for our Centennial of Naval Aviation open house.

    No you don't maintain planes.

    I said oil carts to.

    But you can't say you maintain planes because you don't even touch them. That's like me a crew chief saying I maintain your job.
