inShoutout to the guy at the Tulsa ramp who showed me a borescope trick I should've known 8 years ago
That heat shrink trick is the same thing as putting tape over your phone flashlight when you lose something in the car, the bright light is actually the problem, not the fix. Half the wins in this life come from dumb little changes like that, the kind nobody teaches because they seem too small to matter. The old guys on the ramp know them all and they just hand em out like candy if you stand there long enough.

inMy surface air hose split at 60 feet in the Ohio River last Tuesday
Same thing happens with power cords, you don't see the wear until it sparks.

inVent: Fought the wind on a 90 foot panel pick in Amarillo and I still don't know if I did right
Twenty two mph with 90 feet of panel is no joke, and riding it out worked so who cares what the foreman says. Two things though, did you have a wind meter on the deck and is there a written cutoff in your lift plan? If that plan says stop at 20 you already know the answer, and next time that answer keeps you clear of a bad day.
