Cool beans, I think ive heard of them before. Where are they located? Im not sure I would have chosen air traffic. I think A&P is going to be stressful enough! haha

I'm currently flying the ERJ-170 at a regional airline. Can't believe I've spent 8 years at a regional...I'm looking forward to the next step, whatever that may be.

I fly Attack Helicopters in the Army. 15 years so far! Can't wait to retire and start a new job. @Unstable: I will have a FW multi engine turbine rating when I retire and I was wondering about flying cargo, any words of wisdom?
