re: #153 baconeatingkaffir

When I was in the emirates during my AF time we used to pray that none of our guys would have to be medevaced by the locals because of that very reason. Lookingback now I gues it wa silly because everyone knows they have defense contractors to deal with maitenance. Arabs wouldnt get their hands dirty and there’s not passage in the Koran about rotor blades.

I used to fly Saudia a lot when I worked over there. One time on a trip to Jeddah we had to turn around almost at the halfway point of the trip because the pilots discovered that maintenance hadn’t put enough fuel in to make it to Jeddah……..prayed a lot when I was flying over there……
