costly forgetfulness well with no loss of lives

Maybe time to hang up the wings? That’s a pretty important forgot. Least in my eye it is.

Yes, I completely agree. It’s been about 20 years ago but there was a Designated Examiner here in Atlanta that allowed a student pilot to land gear up at a local airport. Well, questions had to be answered and eventually another check ride for the DE was scheduled. Once in the air with the FAA in the cockpit the DE was put thru the usual stuff you’d be expected to complete on a check ride, when completed returned to PDK and LANDED GEAR UP AGAIN. I never really looked for them but neither the FAA Examiner or the DE were ever heard from again. Lol.
I cannot remember the Designated Examiners name but I took several of my written tests with her and while she was active I sent several students to her for written tests.

My local Napa has a plethora of sizes of Woodruff keys available.
I used a thinner than stock 1/16" (35 cents) in a Craftsman 3.3 about a year ago & havent had a issue.
I cleaned the shaft & flywheel & added some valve grinding compound.

Well that 7900 should be fairly easy to pick out in a police station line-up...
