Whats AOG mean?

He works at A J Walters they sell aircraft parts all over world so much money in it, i worked there for 2months before i quit because i was bored of it lol

Screws go for 75,000 one bloody tiny screw lol

Lets just say Mr Whiteside is a very very rich man.

AOG- Aircraft on Ground if you've ever been delayed at airport it's mostly because they need a part so they will pay anything so they don't get delayed any longer so it's our job/his job to get that part there on time sort out deliveary etc.

Apart from my brother is in Logestics which is much more higher up than i was.

How do you have an AOG shift.. AOG's aren't expected

CCTV has been installed at work today - keeping a check on us.

Found out it was Julie, the CEO's PA who grassed me up.

MEP has been stalking me!

Does this mean what I think it means?

Wow you're expensive MS500!

On topic - Been out in the Stilo, got a fair bit done on the house and now have a working WC and a repository for crap in the garden.

Off Topic.....

How much!? Even if priced in Yen (~135Y = $2) Id suggest thats still a bit extravagant. Ive heard of minor aero engine bolts hitting the $1000 dollar mark, but that was due to internal wranglings on what was otherwise a $3 part

AOG is usually very expensive! Delays/Cancellations typically cost a small fortune ($20k to $100k easily) and theres normally 20 or so a day at a major airport. More 'charged' events like forced landings, aborted take-off's etc. get much more expensive - most are 7 figure costs to sort out.

I still find great amusement when I hear that a fairly minor upset mid-flight causes AOG as the engine had to be removed to replace an item designed to be field replaceable. 5 figures normally become multiples of 7 figures within seconds.

If they monitor you via CCTV remind them of the CCTV reviewers license thingy they technically legally need but no-one ever has! :devil:
