Since we all laugh, cry, stress and anguish about flightsim together almost every day, it'll be interesting to know what everyone does

 

I work in the investment sector in regulatory compliance. :hi:

I work as the Chief CADD Designer, in our US office, for a global construction company, designing post-tension systems for bridges and buildings.

I work as an Engineer and will be taking over as production manager next year (not sure if that's a good or a bad thing tbh!)

 

I set c+c machines to make springs and I also hand coil springs and wire form parts for the medical, automotive, and aerospace industries.

 

I'm also a qualified internal auditor and muck in with Quality assurance when I am able too.

In my case I'm an intern at a composite parts (CFRP, carbon fibre reinforced polymer) manufacturing company in Spain. The good thing about my job is that, although I work in an engineering office with CAD/CAE people, I'm also involved with the manufacturing shop so I see how a part that's drawn in CATIA get's actually made, it's quite "satisfying" to see how things are actually done.

 

Also I'm writing my MSc thesis which I intend to defend by November, so hopefully I'll be an MSc Aeronautical Engineer!

Retired - I highly recommend it!

 

I retired from the City of New York after 28 years in the N.Y.P.D. (as a civilian personnel manager).  But I helped to set-up many computer systems for them in the 1980's - the dawn of the PC age, and LAN's.

 

That's where I first discovered MS FS1, FS2, and later FS1995.  Which of course ultimately led to my current obsession with simulated flight.

I'm a police officer pounding the beat in York, UK but sprouted my wings way way back servicing bulldogs, jet provosts and tucanos at RAF linton on

Ouse near YORK back in the 90s. First experiance of the RAF was when a wessex plopped itself down on our school playing field in the 70s.

Software engineer in the UK, near Gatwick, in that terribly exciting business of payroll.

 

Rhino, we might call you a 'murse' over here  :wink:

I fix biz jets for a major fractional share company, Flexjet.

You mean FlexOptions or FlightJet? ;) Love the new paint jobs going on the CL-350's. New uniforms are a bit different though.

 

Anyhow, on to me. 22 years in aviation in some form or another. Licensed A&P, but currently doing Line Service for a world class FBO here in Florida. I play/work with the real things, and fly the fake ones in my spare time. I think the aviation bug has taken me completely.

I'll never be able to buy razor blades at my local store again without thinking that behind the package lies a flighsimmer :))

Beyond that, i spend my free time raising my baby daughter. And beyond that (doesnt exist), i used to like flight simming......

 

(PS - I like these posts. Puts a sense of personality behind the message boards!)
