Apologies to my Dad, a WWII jet engine mechanic, but I can't picture that.
Talk about hazard differential (pay)!
Dad did try to walk me through the parts of the jets he worked on, that we saw at a museum. I can't imagine anything going through that without damage to both.
Navy crews would likely say that they and their machine are tough enough to go through a smattering of ash; and at same time denounce the Air Force's sissy, pretty planes and pilots.
