Cool Surprise on Short Final

[Joe Zuffoletto]

I just checked out the video from my aborted trip to San Luis Obispo earlier this summer... some of you might recall I had to return to base with a zero oil pressure indication... and look what was waiting for me at the hold short line as I approached to land. Pretty cool!

What caused the zero oil pressure ? I remember about a year ago we were on final at Fresno and the tower had me check my 3 o'clock and as we were descending a B17 was overtaking us about 200ft off our right wing very cool! I'll never forget that.

@bonal: There was a piece of thread tape flapping around in the line, plus a dirty sensor.

Nice when it's something like that and not the usual stuff that sets us back big time.

Could you tell which B17 it was? Looked like Fuddy Duddy.
