Test Pilot looking for a way to remove unwanted stains
I've noticed a direct correlation between the number of planes that I test fly and the occurrence of unsightly undergarment stains. I would like to know: Have any of you "seasoned fliers" found an acceptable solution to this often embarrassing problem?
Thanks,
TX

Hmm this could be viewed as a problem or not.
Those stains you refer to could be considered as a badge of courage. Along with the shirt tails hanging in the club house from those who solo, stained undergarments from the test pilots may be appropriate and a sign of achievement!

Thanks Joss,
I like your insight. A little pre-planning in the morning, wearing my oldest pair of boxers, and I'm good to go. I'll bring a spare pair to change into for the return trip home... leaving the afore mentioned "sign of achievement" for all to view at the pilot shack.

I can see that you have not been to our field. All the instructors at our field were having the same troubles and the wifes went into revolt. Alas the solution. We got a porta potty with the upper half cut off. All you need do is have a seat and fly. When the student does the manuver that used to get you in trouble, you are now ready. The only issue that has arisen has been a few reports of a blue stain on the knickers! Some times you just gotta weight the option's and go with what works. Good Luck, Dave.

Wow,
that's the type of response I was lookin for! Now, I just have to sell the idea to the other club members. I'd like to see a picture of your club's "low rider" porta-potty.

I see that Texan has been to our field. Best instructor's office ever made. We are thinking about one way glass on the top part as privacy is an issue, however we are also looking for a way to deal with the glare!!!! In my years of instructing, I have had some students that required the pot pumper outer to be on standby. Being an instructor has been very rewarding for me and I do still enjoy it. Now if I could just get my son to quit getting better than me I would have it made. It's an ego thing I think.

Sorry, there are laws around here that prohibit unliscensed dumping in a public area. However, I like your logic. Also, how would you protect against a fly assault at your six?

Thanks again for the great suggestion. However, I don't think privacy is going to be my real issue. Here in Texas, a fly screen is a MUST. Now, how will that metal mesh effect my Xmitter signal? Darn, why do things always get complicated?

Hehehehe. I would suggest going home quick and washing anything that needs to be washed before her ladyship arrives.
I think I got the hang of it. Look for a big, ussually white box, with some glass on the front. Get a crowbar, and open up the door on it. Then, throw in all your stuff, some red and white stuff goes well together. Then, throw a bar of soap, and some water. Close and secure the door with some epoxy, and press the 'on' button.
i am not sure, but I think that is how it works.
Robert.
Good luck in your adventures!

I can't wait for Buz> to get his heli. We will then need 2 of the brown stain eliminators at the field, with a conduit in between for the trainer cord to pass through, cause there is going to be a mess on both ends of the cord!!!! Ye Ha, Buz>, bring it on!!!! We gonna fly a heli!!!! This gotta be good.
