addressing an engineer, not vajar.

SKI: vajar's late engineer has made no entries in the ship's 
technical log, and the Warfare engineers are unimpressed with his 
apparent work.

[50] This amuses me because there is so much lore in aviation, so 
many things that old captains know because they learned long ago, but 
that might not be true anymore. Apparently bIrmoHmeH taS hasn't been 
brutally toxic for years. It's only if you mix the two kinds. 
(Another piece of aviation lore: never mix two sorts of anything, 
even if they are both approved for the aircraft). Sometimes lore is 
correct, though.

Slightly dry reading, perhaps. but the gist of it is that the WING 
FELL OFF because they mixed two different sorts of hydraulic fluid. 
For the non-aviation types: wing fall off bad.
[54] vajar is addressed as HoD because he is the commander of a ship, 
but his military rank is la'. the jonpIn heads a department with 
easily triple the crew complement of *Dugh* and while she doesn't 
command a ship, her military rank is HoD. The officer ranks run ne' 
lagh Sogh la' HoD 'ech totlh Sa' 'aj. So the little engineer outranks vajar.
