what are you doing?

If you're working on an aircraft you need a license. and it takes a hell of a lot longer than 11 weeks to do it. this is the field i'm going for and i've been in for 2 years ( keep in mind, i took these classes over highschool, so summer break + only 3 hours a day instead of 6 hours a day). i have another 8 months to go and then i have to take tests.

just remember this...my instructor told me this. you mess up one small thing and it could kill hundreds of people..just make sure to check and double check..and triple check, then have your supervisor check again. that's if you're doing maintenance though.

Turbine engines? oh nice! if you're lucky you might be able to do some destructive testing ( shooting frozen birds into it)

the tolerances on those engines are very very tiny. so you might have to do lots of measuring.

Anytime you're offered a chance to learn something new, jump at it. A wise man never stops learning.
If this guy is offering you a chance to learn a new career, that can support you and your family, go for it.

Patience is a virtue.

Measure twice, cut once.

There are a lot of sayings that can go along with this job...

Save the cheerleader, save the world.

Patience is a virtue.

One of the virtues i don't posses.
