We would chain them down on the fantail and run them to full power to ensure everything was ok. Well the engine had a bad fuel heater and I changed it out right there. Jet fuel was everywhere and before the end of the testing a major storm moved in. We ended up with waves over the the flight deck later. Anyway I either slipped in the fuel or tripped over the fuel lines and started skidding towards the opening where the jet exhaust was. Luckily there was a lip about 2 inches high that my heels hit and stopped my slide. If I had gone over I would have been pulled right into the props just below. The guy on the other side of the engine didn't notice anything till I got up.

Dang. That is some dangerous business. One time I forgot to bring the correct documents to a client. Let me tell you, that was pretty hair-raising.

Oh you've met her before eh?! lol

She would gladly take the opportunity to straighten things out. Nobody messes with Mrs.GaleForce. I've already said too much! Damn, I'm in trouble now.
