Dubai airport (4.75 inches) of rainfall


Recommended Posts

Many  decades ago I was in Tehran  for some government mission and met a Canadian who was staying at the same hotel as me and my crew. He and his buddy were from British Columbia and they were flying a DC-3 seeding clouds for the Iranian  Government. He said it was a very lucrative job and the only problem he could have had was "parts" His contract did not specify that the Iranian Government was responsible for any maintenace or aircraft parts .

I mentioned that the DC 3 was pretty old and how could he get parts "over here". He told me that there was  a governnent warehouse that had parts for most older aircraft. I then asked how much they cost "over here"?

He said, " I never pay for any I just go in with a request form that I wrote out get parts and sign for them".

"Well, who ends up paying for them?"

" I dunno, I sign the receipt with any name I want, I've used George Washington, Maxwell Smart, Columbo, and a few others.

I wonder if he made it "out".😁
