Very nice work! That Dornier seaplane is a RARE bird, even if it does have modern engines.

FLYBOYJ · 12-05-2007, 02:55 PM

I did not know you worked for Dyncorp? I am trying to get hired on with them right now. Thos pics up there look like they were taken in Mannheim? I have been told if I am hired I will be working up in Mannheim.

A few look like Gieb...

I cant see the tail numbers on the Hawks up there. What tail numbers are they? Do you remember? I am asking because they could have been our helicopters.

When we returned from Iraq they were reset and repainted in Mannheim.

That would be fun to paint all those aircraft.

Heinz · 12-07-2007, 05:41 AM

wow great job! I mean that in the sense I'd love to do it

That looks like fun! I wish I could do something like that, though model planes are fun! How many days did it take you to paint the big planes? Even the helicopters I bet took a while.

I work for RUAG aerospace Oberpfaffenhofen near München.We only get the hawks when they need paint stripping & repaint. I´ll look at the old paper work for the others if you want.

A 747 11 days (Strip & paint),the dragonfly 21 days. the smaller private aircraft are more work.Its a nice job but hard, Paint stripper burns your skin NOT NICE,sanding with a 5 kilo sander under the wings for 7 hours NOT NICE, Painting,Design ect nice.Like every job it has its good & bad points,at this moment in time i´m painting a AS332L2 Super Puma (Cougar) a S**t job.
