Chasing a leak

spdbrake,
Hydraulics? Sounds messier than an FE.

What's an SIL?

twobjshelbys,
I'm almost afraid of having it licked. Like God will pull me up by the hoodie and say, "Ok, you're work here is done."

Opposite of SOL. As in, "when his brakes failed at speed, he was basically SOL."

Mainly hydraulic leaks, Most Jets use Skydrol (non-flammable hyd fluid) but it eats paint worse than DOT 3, Burns your eyes just as bad as teargas, and heaven forbid you using the restroom and not washing your hands thoroughly 1st.
The CH-47C model Chinooks were to the point that IF the fluid stopped running down the cabin walls inflight you best land now. The D model had a bit over 1 mile of hydraulics removed as it was more modular.
