I suppose we could pride ourselves on a high standard of workmanship, but sometimes it was more a case of getting home, or getting the required number of aircraft away on somthing important. As leckies we were known to insert the odd nail instead of a fuse, to get to the other end, sometimes cigarette paper round a fuse, maybe just to keep the relight going and keep an engine functioning. Taking the firewire controllers out of one aircraft and putting it into the one due to leave was a common activity, usually with a wipe on the overalls to make it work better!
