I was an aircraft maintenance man in the USAF and was schooled and trained on jet aircraft with over two engines so I had limited knowledge on receprical engine aircraft. A C-124 landed at our base and it had a cracked windshield on the pilots side. I was sent out to change it. I completed the change and wrote it up for a pressure check to make sure there was no leaks. That was what you did on jet aircraft. I went in and told the superviser what I had done. The old timers got a laugh out of that because the 124 is not pressurized so there is no leak check required. I laughed along with them and said. I don't need to work on any more old outdated aircraft.
