Aircraft gripe-sheet jokes give Reighar a busy week's comic centerpiece
Pilot complaints meet literal-minded maintenance replies over Minecraft parkour in the week's most-watched new upload.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Never Mess With Aircraft Mechanics ✈️
A supposedly missing engine turns up on the right wing after a brief search. A mouse in the cockpit gets a feline solution. Reighar's "Never Mess With Aircraft Mechanics ✈️" finds its comedy in mechanics answering pilot complaints rather more literally than intended.
The Short presents the exchanges as FedEx gripe-sheet entries, reading each problem and solution over Minecraft parkour. These are aviation jokes, not a documented account of maintenance work. The auto-land complaint gets a particularly unhelpful answer: the aircraft doesn't have auto-land installed.
At about 3.4 million views, it is the most-watched of Reighar's eighteen uploads this week. Viewers single out the cat installation and the instruction for an oddly handling aircraft to straighten up and be serious. Others remember encountering versions of the list years ago, including one reader who recalls it pinned to an airline's engineering-jokes wall.
The mechanics have the week's largest new total, but "The Most Insane Sheet Music Ever 🎼" is currently attracting views faster, with "The Truth About Salad lol 🥗" next. Music, food and cockpit paperwork make an unusually varied trio of active draws.
Reighar also reached 200,000 subscribers, adding several thousand across the week. Daily viewing is a little below its usual level, though the weekly view gain is second-largest among the nearby animation and storytelling channels here. ainimal-rescue-ai had the group's biggest viewing week; Tuelz and u m a m i had quieter ones. Reighar's own week leaves plenty of room for a maintenance department whose answer to something loose is simply to tighten something.

@peterbanks7334See it on YouTubeI saw a much older version of this attributed to Qantas roughly 20 years ago. It was printed in recycled tree format and attached to a wall of engineering jokes at a different airline. In no fashion is this new.
