Advanced ratings/type certs

[aeromech]

I hope to get the NCATT certs soon. Now that lasergrade has a testing center here locally.

I will not comment on ratings etc, because that is the only system we have, in order to release an Aircraft you must be rated on that specific type, we do not have a blanket system like the A+P.

However someone mentioned about a Doctor.

I have told my Doctor (who is a good bloke) several times that my job and his are VERY similar, but mine is much harder.

Why, because when I have a sick Aircraft arrive, I cannot ask it why are you here, how do you feel today, where does it hurt and what do you think I should do about it?

Well I could, but I wouldn't get an answer.

yeah I thought that way too, until a doctor told me "lets see you work on that engine while its running"

I've made tweaks and adjustments to a running engine before.... I miss making adjustments on T64-100 engines while the helicopter is running. It definately gets your blood pumping.

Working on a running engine is commonplace! BTW, what is it that you do at Dover AFB?

Is an oxymoron... You only have ONE choice, interested! Your results will show 100% are interested which is true cuz only the interested will respond. You might wanna modify that...

The thread started in '05 when I was younger. Wouldn't know how to modify now that I'm older, so please disregard the percentage and note than interest is peaked at 10. Or just disregard the thread all together
