Spent 6 hours chasing a hydraulic leak on a 737, turned out to be a drip from my own coffee cup
Felt like a genius all morning until my lead pointed at the puddle under the nose gear and asked if I ever washed my travel mug. What is the dumbest ghost chase you guys have burned a whole shift on?
Six hours though, that's a long time to not notice you're the one making the mess. Did your lead actually check the fluid or just eyeball the puddle and assume the worst? Curious how long it took before anyone smelled the coffee.
