[V8] One more oil story...

[Stafford, Kenneth A.]

Reading with amusement about the monkey-boy and other oil filter
tribulations--reminded me...  A few years ago, I was flying my dad's Cessna
210 out of a small airport in Oregon.  The mechanic had just topped up the
engine oil.  Immediately after lift-off I noticed a slight oil slick starting
up the windscreen.  Yanking around to a short pattern, while keeping an eye
on the engine oil pressure my dad and I put it on short final.  By touch down
the oil had completely covered one half of the windscreen making it nearly
totally unusable.  Turns out the FAA-certified mechanic had become distracted
and had failed to tighten the oil filler cap.  Lucky it didn't trash the $25K
engine...
