How many pilots does it take to replace a light bulb . . . .

Last night I went up to renew night currency.  It's amazing how fast 90 days goes by.  It was a pleasant night, a very short 0.3 hours for two stop and goes and one full stop.  But once on the ground and out of the plane again I discovered the beacon on the vertical stabilizer had failed.

At first blush it looked like it might be a several hundred dollar repair.  But that is for a new LED light.  Just replacing the bulb will be $19.95.


Replacing the bulb should be a repair that doesn't make you wince . . . .
