Hey Pierre, some airliners still have steam gauges. I'm flying the Diesel-9 for another month before being forced to glass. It was fun while it lasted.

Tooling engineer to modify and repair nuclear reactors. I'm the idiot on the left standing around picking up some zoomies.
Actually this plant was so clean, we accused the health physics people of giving us dosimeters that didn't work.

As soon as I bluff my way through 767 (light twin) school, I'll meet you and the other reprobates at Darwins... :-)

I Make Babies!
Well, help anyways......I design, implement, and operate risk-based infertility programs for major payer organizations.
Translated, that means I spend hours a day arguing with legal, regulatory, marketing, operations, finance, and providers.
How I got here with a degree in Aerospace Engineering, I'll never really know.......
