This is a very intersting thread just seeing the wide range of people that are involved in our common interest.

I'm an EE and I have built just about anything you can think of during my career.

Here is a shot of my current gig. I work for Dolby Laboratories and we make what we think is the highest performing video monitor available. Your going to need to get your credit card bumped up to buy one though.



Before my current job I had a consulting company where we designed embedded computer products for our customers. This was everything from a unit that went in a golf cart with GPS position on the course to a voice scrambler that went into police handsets.

Who knows what I'll be doing in the future.

Tram - thanks for the info; really hits home. I'm getting the same vibe again and again from the airlines.

Airflite1 - awesome pics! Especially the one from the cockpit.

Just my opinion of course.

It'd probably be a great gig for a single guy who wanted to see "exciting new places" all the time.

Do you know Jeff Richichi?

Hawthorne it is. Not sure if you heard, but there is some guy that flies a yellow Lancair to work from French Valley daily. You can usually see him departing between 5 and 7 . . .

Richichi is awesome! We need to get together, another fellow SpaceXer is looking at building an RV7. He is in the looking over the plans stage and trying to figure out why is is so freaked out! We also have a small group of pilots that make Catalina runs occasionally. It would be good to have you along. There is a PM waiting for you

Day job ???

I work mostly evenings, I try to avoid having to set an alarm in the morning!!!

I work in Switzerland's Geneva Area Control Center.

I get to handle all traffic at FL250 and above in a sector that's about 150NM x 150NM.

Here's a picture of a typical work console taken last night during a graveyard shift at about 05:00 local. Pretty quiet at that time...


Bernie, a work colleague of mine in Zurich built a really nice RV-7 and he's responsible for me starting this pleasing adventure!!!
Thanks Bernie !!!
