Okay, someone has got it in for me. Another EVA situation:

In work today, I had to get from the hatch in the attic across the loft beams (east wing of the building, I've nicknamed it the P1 Truss), to add several CAT5e cables along the conduit. Install a discrete security video cam and repair a light fitting. To further familiar situation I left a screwdriver up there.

-when your flying in your Cessna airplane, and after you have established your altitude, speed, and heading, you turn on the autopilot, and then throw out, the copilot, and passengers along with the passenger seats, because they "dissapear", after circulization burn.

-Just kidding, I'll never do that.

Don't even ask how they "reappear" during deorbit preparations.
