There's your problem.

 

Once upon a time,  Metro did our EC145 avionics package.

It landed and the pilot said "every time I key the tfm radio on the UHF band it blanks my fuel qty tapes on the display."

 

I laughed and crawled out from under the aircraft and said that's cuz this antenna is 3 inches from your fuel qty crap down here on the belly.

 

Y'all can either relocate this newly installed antenna or redesign the fuel system.  Your choice.

 

 

 

Then in another EPIC Metro f'up, They flew another one "completed" to us and Ricky says to me...." got check all the avionics radios and stuff they put in there and see if it all works."

 

I look down and they had an expander box we were putting in our 412s and another expander box we were putting in our astars, right next to each other.  I was like "WOW"  THis thing must have like 50 radios in it or something.  No, just a tfm-550 and a 800mhz motorola.  lol, I showed that to ricky and he had steam blow out his ears and charged off to go make a phone call.

 

Ah, Metro.

 

It's a good thing I don't know anything about ICS.  Otherwise I might not have noticed the IDIOTS who installed extra crap making bigger mistakes than the IDIOTS who Plow it into the smoking holes.

 

Retards.
