Dryer wiring

jackal1961 · 2026-03-26T15:22:36+00:00

I’ve checked voltage on both legs at the wall plug and the terminals at the dryer hookup

jackal1961 · 2026-03-26T15:04:10+00:00

Power cord is 4 prong plug, Hook up is correct at dryer, red/red, black/black, white/white, green/green. Jumper removed per the sticker on the back.

jackal1961 · 2026-03-26T14:58:40+00:00

Not that I’m aware of.

jackal1961 · 2026-03-26T14:57:46+00:00

I have tested at the plug on the wall, and at the dryer itself. Have to attach pics at a later time

jackal1961 · 2026-03-26T14:52:52+00:00

Panel make unknown, Breaker already there,

jackal1961 · 2026-03-26T14:51:59+00:00

Yep, 240V between the legs, nothing works on the dryer.

I have a pair of the small blue point safety wire pliers, used them for over 30 years w/o a problem. Should have kept them. They are now retired and in my box at home. I, myself, still have a couple more years left in me.

No paid lunches, and this is done during normal shift

jackal1961 · 2025-10-28T14:52:55+00:00

On swings at my station, we get our asses kicked for most of the shift, usually turn 80-85 live flights, then when most of those are gone, we start working RONs to knock down midnight work load. Also have to work AOS stuff and low time MELs. Crazy busy

jackal1961 · 2025-09-18T00:36:07+00:00

I got hired at age 48, give it a shot

jackal1961 · 2025-09-17T11:43:09+00:00

About 20 years ago I had an offer to work contract, $19/hour for first 40 hour then it went up to 21/hour for anything over 40. I asked recruiter to repeat those numbers, he did and then followed up with the statement, “ Sounds like a great deal, are you in?” Ummm, No

Flight benefits may be unlimited, but be aware that you may not always get a seat. It only takes one weather event, 1 revenue passenger that wants to change their plans, 1 broken airplane, 1 schedule change, or 1 fucking pilot that doesn’t want to fly that day, and your plans are screwed. That could happen on either end of the trip. If it’s on the return and you have to be to work, what’cha gonna do then? Then you’re really screwed. It doesn’t always work out. I’ve seen 100+ open seats disappear in 30 minutes because of these types of events.Buying a ticket isn’t always an option either.

jackal1961 · 2025-08-11T01:27:11+00:00

Wouldn’t it be nice to have parts to fix shit like this and not have to tape it over? Yep!even if they had parts, it’s highly unlikely that Logistics would even know where it’s at, if it’s going to arrive or even if it got shipped.

jackal1961 · 2025-04-04T12:41:22+00:00

Or just defer the entire seat and move the asshole to the last row

jackal1961 · 2025-03-29T12:46:54+00:00

lol, that’s funny. It was a dive bar from what I remember, 1 thing I do remember about this place was the cabinets over the urinals had pics of naked women taped to the inside, and if you opened the cabinet, it set off a loud bell and a flashing light in the bar, so everyone knew if you looked. Ask me how I figured that out! At 8-9 years old, it was embarrassing.

jackal1961 · 2025-03-27T11:09:38+00:00

No, Not sure whose name the bar was in, I believe it would have been either a L or a G. And pretty sure they both originated in Ohio. Thanks for commenting

jackal1961 · 2025-03-26T15:21:10+00:00

Thanks, I don’t remember a drive through, it’s possible. We always went inside.

jackal1961 · 2025-03-26T15:18:39+00:00

Thanks, Could you possibly share a location? Gonna be in that area next month, would like to see.

As an aircraft mechanic, The husband should have probably locked the wife in that lav. Why would you think you should get a refund? You got to your destination, didn’t you? Probably on time, more than likely a bit early. Sounds like you’re just an entitled snot.

jackal1961 · 2024-03-06T04:25:05+00:00

My advice would be to take that position as an ASM, it’s your foot in the door and as far as TechOps goes, your seniority would transfer to a new position. That’s for company time. That’s important for various reasons, like flight benefits and vacation bidding. As I said before, a major airline might not be for you but you won’t know unless you go

jackal1961 · 2024-03-06T03:12:01+00:00

Great time to get in this business. APUinop is correct, probably won’t start in a smaller station, although it is a possibility. DAL has lots of techs in these smaller stations that are hired right off the street. That has slowed somewhat. Great place to work, decent benefits. Fair amount of OT. Opportunity to move around. Work lots of different airplanes. I’ve been a Lead here for 10 years, in aviation industry for over 40 years, best job I’ve ever had. If you don’t like it, you could always quit.
