With that kind of support I'm surprised anyone turns a wrench around here. I build airplanes for a living, so I only have one level of completion and that's perfect.... as they can't just coast off to the side of the road when something falls off.
I work in Aviation too. (30 years now). I’ve been a licensed AME for 27 years and have been working at Pratt & Whitney Canada in Turbine Engine development for over 24 years.
I’d love to meet up sometime. I think we’d have a lot in common.
