Licenced aircraft engineer with full avionic coverage and some airframe/engine coverage holding licences issued by the UK CAA, Nigeria, Trinidad and Guyana, certified on a wide range of small and medium helicopters.

Technical enough?

I'm not interested in words, only what a person can do.

My previous manager had a masters degree in electronic engineering, didn't know what ESR was or the difference between a N/P channel MOSFET.

Take a look at Colin Furze Youtube channel, no formal qualifications. That is something I respect, dedication and passion for engineering, not afraid to get in there and get greasy..

i don't know why some people on this site have to get personal. They keep bringing up issues you raised months and sometimes years ago

A lot of the old time posters have been getting trolled recently, which is im not getting dragged into any more nonsense.

Ah, so it is needed then.

Your thread has been taken sooo far off topic, feel like I've entered another dimension. . .

Well, I can carry out and sign for whatever maintenance is called up in the relevant aircraft maintenance schedule as well as rectifying any snags that occur.
I am currently in working in in a hands on position on a fleet of 7 medium twin engine helicopters flying for an oil and gas company, an operation that I have been working in for close to 7 years now.
If I could only talk a good job and not actually do that job I would have been moved on long ago.

As I stated earlier, I've worked in a technical job for 40 odd years and despite your claims, in all that time I've never once felt persecuted when working in the UK.

Persecuted at work? call this number NOW....

Try working as a vehicle technician (ex-AAC aircraft technician, changed direction when leaving AAC and Army) for an ex-German POW. He was a member of the SS and I did not know any of this until later, only knew him as a genial family friend when I was a child. The guy was a psycho, once tried to knock me off a vehicle ramp. After 5 years of that I was glad to leave, as workshop manager for a much better boss. Got my revenge by taking all my previous boss's customers with me. Went to weekend Tech classes and the OU, became a Motor engineer.

I attended the POW's funeral: when asked why, I simply said that I wanted to make certain...

Persecuted at work? You know nothing, buddy!

Hasn't the "Never Good Enough" appraisal & target setting culture reached you yet?

If you kept those helicopters flying for 61,320 hours between them last year, aren't you tasked with keeping them flying for 64,386 hours this year?

Opened this thread thinking it would interesting to see what the answer might be, then I stumbled into a p***ing contest. Get a room boys.

If only that was the case.
As with pretty much everything related to offshore oil production at the moment, our revenue flying is going down month by month and it doesn't look like there is going to be any improvement in the near future.
