They sacrificed a goat???
Awww, come on guys, it’s so simple. Maybe you need a refresher course. It’s all ball bearings nowadays. Aren’t you keeping up with the manuals? Now you prepare that Fetzer valve with some 3-in-1 oil and some gauze pads. And I’m gonna need 'bout ten quarts of anti-freeze, preferably Prestone. No, no make that Quaker State.

That was the first thing I thought of when I saw this article.
If you run out of goats, though, is it safe to use a sheep?
Depends. If it’s an avionics problem, yeah, probably you can get by. Engines, though, nothing less than a yak will do.
Sadly, I’ve flown Royal Nepal, I would have welcomed the goat sacrifice.

That too, but let’s just say the plane and crew didn’t inspire overwhelming confidence.
How many goats did Steve Fossett sacrifice before setting out? Not enough, I’ll wager.
Odd. Usually they sacrifice mountain goats.
by crashing a plane into them at 14,000 feet.
If My plane crashes in the Andes, can I eat the goats? I suppose I should eat the squid first, as that won’t keep fresh so long.

Made my day to see that I will not be alone in hell!
I forget, is it lambs or oxen for rotorcraft?
[QUOTE=Mangetout]
It’s a foxes and rabbits thing, mostly.

Giant 12 foot tall rabbits with teeth as long as a talking cat’s arm?

I’m pretty sure it’s chickens. Anything bigger is likely to mess up the rotor when you toss it in.

Not for the sheep.
If you’re maintaining Hovercraft, you gotta use eels.

goats … will be out there partying and consuming everything in sight.

No kidding.

That would be above the door and on the side posts, but wrong god.

But is just the main door where the jetway connects enough, or do you have to get all the emergency exits as well?
If you have properly done the sacrifice, you only need the main door.
Duh!
