| To introduce myself Hi...interesting forum y'all have here. A friend, db2i, recommended this site due to my affiliation with aviation and his love for WW11 aircraft. My career started in 1962 ibn the US Air Force ultimately becoming a B-52 Crew Chief. My career has continued uninterrupted to this day. I am the Chief of Maintenance for a corporate operator here in Houston. We operate a Dassault Falcon 50 EX. I have been with this company for 21 years. I hold a FAA A&P license as well as an FAA IA. Prior to the company I work for today, I worked for a NASA contractor (Dynalectron) maintaining T-38's, T-33 and Gulf Stream G1 at Ellington AFB. We also had a P3 and C130 used for "earth resources" and two high altitude RB-57s. It was a GREAT job for 5 years. I love WWII aircraft but have only worked minutely on two that belonged to the CAF (Confederate Air Force)...A TBF and a Jap Zero. That was many years ago. Anyway, I am happy to find another forum I can relate to. I look forward to some interesting discussions. Thanks David for the link! |
