Default Big scare story

I was reading some of the older posts of this group and was highly
entertained by NW_Pilot's carburetor icing thread.

My guess is that all of the high time pilots have at least one "big scare
story" they might share... How about it, what was your scariest moment?

Not cleaning the toilet...watching the water rise on a clogged toilet, and
wondering if it is going to overflow, from the flush!!!

Pikers.

We've got 38 toilets. When one of the third-floor ones erupts, look out
below!

Ha... I've got rental properties - been there, done that.

Actually, one of your posts here (or articles on your website) originally
got me thinking about this. The one about the pilot or student who just
dropped out of flying because of a "big scare"...

I've got a loose contract for repairs to some rentals out in Sea Bright. Two of
them are a steady source of income from this sort of thing.

Looks like I'll now always request a third--floor room from you.

Signing the purchase agreement for my Warrior (which doesn't have a
toilet, fortunately).


All the best,

That's why planes with toilets require two pilots.

Doesn't that depend upon the location of the toilet?
