Pilot Relief Tube After landing, new ensign wrote up this complaint about an A-7 that he just finished flying, "Pilot relief tube too short." (The pilot relief tube is a device that allows a male pilot to relieve himself in flight if he's had a little too much coffee before climbing into the cockpit.)

After correcting the problem, they gave the pilot's chain (and probably his ego) a good yank by signing off the maintenance form like this: "Pilot relief tube found to be of sufficient length for enlisted personnel"
