worked for usairways. started in the commuters, working the ramp. we had dornier 328s, beech 1900s, saab 320s, j 31s, and dash 8s. did that for about 5 years then got a job with mainline in maintenance planning. i made the daily work orders for the mtc shops...scheduled checks...tracked MELs and all that fun. did that for a couple years. was there during 9/11. i enjoyed it but the airline industry is one of feast or famine...you are either rolling in dough or going belly up. i was low man on the totem pole so next rounds of cuts ( if there were any ) i was out....and they were relocating the whole OPs center across the country....so i took that opportunity to find employment elsewhere. do miss it on occasion...especially flight benies...lol i have a small scar on my head from a pitot tube....smacked my head on it while pulling the chocks on the nose gear.
