sounds like acp1778 is a bit spoiled or just born with a silver spoon in his mouth. You dont get anywhere without starting at the bottom

@bosco266 What did the railroad pay? I make $30 an hour. 10 hour days. 3 days off.

@ujusgotownd Find a trade school in your area. Here in NYC we have aviation highschool but there is a college here where you can get your A&P and a degree at the same time. After you get your A&P trying getting a job outside the aviation field. I worked on forklifts for 2 years before getting into aviation. I learned more fixing forklift then i did airplanes.

I love aircraft engines because I do really care for fixing big and though works from turbo prop to turbojet engines haha it really took me years to master each aircraft engine especially from the pratt and whittney canada engine company I love to work for now on 12 stage turbine engine which cost it to repair and replace for 700 grand pals.
