What do you do?

After serving 22 years in the Royal Air Farce, (I left in 2000), I ended up as a civvie on a military contract which took me back to all the good places like Afghanistan and Iraq which were always interesting :S I did that for the next 15 years before switching to a contract nearer home, but this was also another military contract.
So I'm now working on converted Airbus A330s used for air-to-air refuelling.
The A330 is the biggest and most complex aircraft I've worked on to date.

Anything heavier than air that can fly has fascinated me since I was a kid.

You get paid for this? :woohoo:

Cool Job award to you, Sir.



Steve.

Kinda makes being a sheep breeder feel a bit lame! Keep on keeping us safe. And the same goes for the rest involved with the military.

Been floating around different professions in recent years. Have been a class 2 driver, went back to college to study engineering, in the process of failing that whilst working part time as a contractor servicing gensets, and as a self employed courier for the NHS (which I use the Jimny for, it gets all over NW Scotland). I'm probably one of the few folks firing 30k/year on to a Jimny, but it is the perfect vehicle for my needs.

Here’s a view from my office. 70km west of shetland on the Clair Ridge project as a production tech. Weather hardly looks like this up here though!!!
