So THAT'S why they say to always visually check the fuel level! How quickly
people forget from their primary training...

I think the Shuttle's fuel sensors were made by the same subcontractor that
made the fuel gauges in my Warrior.

Discovery can't take off because of a bad fuel sensor ? Are they kidding
us
? The crew is already strapped in, number one for departure, cocked and
loaded. We just put gas in the thing. I saw the line guys top the tanks
earlier in the day. Stick the tank, placard the gas gauge inop and let's
go
haul the mail ! Now it takes three or four days to replace it ? They
need
to find a new A&P, preferably non-union. We are never going to get
commercial space travel at this rate. I'm sure the FAA is to blame too
....
somehow.
