I am convinced that my military service was a key reason I was given an opportunity based on the questions asked during the interview........ GO Veterans!!!!!
In some industries and at some companies veterans are prefered, but it doesn't make that much difference in aviation unless you were a military pilot. Occasionally you can get lucky if the interviewer is ex-military or happens to be a military fan...I've had that happen. |

Now see, that's what's up right there.... I'll be a retired MSgt (USAF), maybe SMSgt (if I'm lucky) in 4 years and I hope to have those ratings and some solid hours by then. I'm almost three-quarters done with my degree as well . I may just stay past 20 until I can get that 1000/100ME if I don't meet the personal deadline of December 2012. I'm based here at ETAR since 2005, will be here until next November then head back to the States. Flight training should be much more accessible back home than it is here in Europe so I can stay current. Inspiration, I tell ya. Thanks Chief. HerkFCC |
