You take a tape measure to the dealership to make sure you can get a jet in your new vehicle before you buy it.
or you ask the salesman if you can stop buy your home and see if your Mig 15 will fit in the back

Your simple, low cost, bathroom wallpaper remodeling project, turns into a major cluster f#%$, and ends up costing about the same as a new WREN!!

Its happening to me now!!!

Can't start on my Agressor until I finish it.

Man I feel your pain. My master bath and bedroom remodel is up to four WREN's with two more WREN's to go before I am finished. I did the kitchen last year and it was a three WREN job.

When you fire up the turbine instead of the snowblower to clear the sidewalk.

When you phone the Wren factory and don't even have to tell me your name... I've spoken to you so often that I recognise your voice...

Just as long as she doesn't use the term "FOD" then you are in good shape. Otherwise you may be in BIG trouble.

When you start using turbine engine brand names as a unit of currency.

Heck, that's nothing - my garage/dog house build-out has cost 1 Mercury so far and looks like it'll end up closer to 2...

BUT ! I'm getting at least a 1/2 P-60 rebate since it'll be a new home for my planes... They should be happier since it'll be air conditioned...

You're in an accident on the way to the field and have to climb over two unconscious passengers to check on the condition of your jet.
