The week we had to fix a 737's entire EFIS with a 1985 manual

It was maybe 8 years ago at a small shop in Wichita, and our whole digital library went down for three days. We had this old paper manual for the system, and it was full of handwritten notes from techs in the 90s. I mean, it was slow going, but figuring it out with just that book and a multimeter felt like real problem solving. Anyone else miss having to work with just the basics sometimes?

Wonder what makes something both brutal and cool though. Like, mountain biking looks awesome but breaking your collarbone is not. Or that movie where the hero wins but his whole family dies first. Is it the mix of pain and payoff that does it?
