 It won't hurt it to have a bend as long as the hose is not flapping back and 
forth. In a slob rig, the hose vibrate and wear out - in a clean rig, this wil 
lnot happen.

 There are so many benfits to doing it right that one can not readily see - 
being neat and precise will always pay off , right down to how you are thinking 
and reacting. 

  I used to always charter this one particular woman pilot to fly me to the 
Bahamas because she was so anal about checking each little thing before we got 
in the plane, and then she always turned to the side before the end of the 
runway to go over her list and check each thing again, whereas the other pilots 
always just cranked it up and went, since it seemed like a weenie flight to 
them. 

   Now I can't charter her becasue she only flys 747's, but the other guys are 
still there any time you want to fly with them.  - G
