Well, when working on F-4s, you quickly learn that those things that
hang down aren't "speed brakes," they're "dammits."

I know, I have a ding in my left side from a speed brake on an F-4E.
Those little nylon drain tubes cut at a 45º angle along the underside were
called MFers for a reason.
Another goodie is to have the aux air doors cycle while buttoning up the
starter and starter exhaust panels when the centerline tank is installed. Catch
that across the knuckles once and you will cuss.
