I had a power distribution problem that did not manifest itself until it was under generator operation. One of the relays was wired wrong from the back shop. Got that fixed and ran the engines again to confirm the fix. Looks like we have some audio issues to sort but for the most part everything is working.

How old are these planes that you're basically are doing an overhaul?

Oh they're fairly new. Have less than 3000 hours on them. We are adding our mission gear to them.

Russ, while listening to the engineers, were you shaking your head so much that you thought you'd turned into Linda Blair?

Today, I was fortunate enough to have a headset on and that the ISOLATE button worked. I turned them off.

It rained like a sum-bitch out there today which always makes handling the airplane a treat. Gusty winds, pouring rain plus haven't steered with my feet in a while.
