It's going great so far!

Of course, I'm the new guy, so all they've had me doing all week is putting panels back on, labeling parts, greasing seals, scraping sealant, etc.

OK with me... Gotta pay my dues!

Having been in retail for the last i dunno how many years, I'm not gonna know what it's like to have 3 days I can take off in a row!

Glad to hear it's going well.

We had some engineers at my last company that had the academics, but more importantly, they had both flight experience and A/P experience and were very valuable when it came to design and development of new systems.

Yeah, I've always loved aviation and airplanes, and I figured it would be a good way to get my foot in the door in the industry.
