Aloha convertible

An nickname bestowed on Boeing 737-200 N73711 (Boeing c/n 20209) of Aloha Airlines. On April 28 1988, this aircraft (flying as Aloha flight 243) was flying from Hilo, Hawaii to Honolulu at 24,000 feet. An 18 foot section of the cabin roof separated and a flight attendant was lost overboard in the resulting decompression. Everyone else stayed in their seats, and the crew was able to make an emergency landing in Maui. The accident was later determined to be due to metal fatigue, and resulted in more demanding inspection and maintenance requirements for high cycle aircraft.

We do dye penetration inspections on our aircraft because no one wants another Aloha convertible.

convertible

A sports car that has a mechanical (older convertibles had to have the top removed manually) folding soft or hardtop instead of a fixed roof. Contrary to popular belief, they are NOT only chick cars and are NOT cars for just old or gay guys. If you go to some car shows, you will see some convertibles that have been turned from cruisers into full blown beasts.

Tommy: Dude you got a convertible?
Freddy: Yea so?
Tommy: You're so gay!
Freddy: If I'm so gay, why is your girl riding shotgun with me?
Tommy: Gah!
Freddy: Oh and for the record, I hear you talking shit about my ride, saying how your coupe can beat it. Well guess what, my convertible is pushing out 800hp so do you still wanna talk shit or do you wanna race?
Tommy: No dude it's ok...boy I was wrong about you convertible guys. I'm sorry man. But hey can I have my girl back?
Freddy: No! Fuck off!

convertible

An apartment to which an extra "bedroom" has been added through the subdivision of a bedroom or living room with a makeshift wall. This usually results in a tiny, rat-maze-like room with no doors, windows, or closets, and no sound insulation. Not recommended for adults. A common occurrence in New York City, this procedure is used especially for turning overpriced, small one-bedroom apartments into overpriced, even smaller two-bedroom apartments. Usage is not standard, and some differentiate between "converted" apartments in which the subdividing wall(s) have already been added, and "convertible" apartments which have not yet been subdivided. Transparently and insultingly exploiting this confusion, unscrupulous (read: all) rental apartment brokers almost always classify any overpriced one-bedroom apartment as a "convertible" two-bedroom.

Renters of convertible apartments are in common parlance called "suckers," and the act of renting itself is called a "mistake."

"You son of a b****, you advertised this as a 2BR and I came all the way to the f***ing West Side to find a studio with a bead curtain."
