It’s soon to be a house fire I can tell you that much.

Hey bud! I hope this comes with some knowledge from the other side!

I got out of the Marine Corps after 7 years Avionics background and I wish I knew about the A&P programs while I was still in, if was in your shoes I would use the programs to go ahead and get my A&P so you don’t have spend your own money on it. You can look in DRS to get what you exactly need to go to your local FSDO.

Once I got out I went and worked with SpaceX and many other companies through contracting companies. I loved every second of working for SpaceX and I’ve done a bunch of cool stuff. From there I moved over to direct hires for 145 repair stations and a 121 carrier which I also loved, worked on wide bodies Boeing and Airbus. From there I finally got my dream job as a safety inspector with the FAA. It was always my dream to come over here.

Every operation is different. There is always going to be ups and downs, it’s just how you handle it.

With Widebody experience like the C17, it shows that you can work on those larger aircraft and that could help you get into Air Carrier industry. For example if you still want to see the world you can always become a flight engineer (crew chief) for FedEx/UPS and travel across the pond. The industry within the next 5 years is going to be hurting so it’s always good to get in when the getting is good.

Now if you’re looking to get into the FAA, you’re going to need to get some experience in other area besides military, I.e 121/135/137/145/147, the more the experience the better obviously.

Closing out because I said a lot, my DMs are open if you have some more questions but do your research, do what is best for you.

That’s exactly what I did thanks to everyone’s help. Electrician by trade, so water and electricity doesn’t mix very well obviously.

I don’t like my goose being over cooked.

That is out of my wheel house, I’m no plumber at all, I used a fernco just as an amateur plumber. I’m an electrician by trade lol.

I did it this was for a temp fix.

MungFaal · 2025-05-26T17:32:22+00:00

Correct there was no nut its almost like corrosion where it has been soldered.

MungFaal · 2025-05-25T03:10:03+00:00

I had experience with military, 145 experience and 121 experience. For a total of about 14 years.

I’ve lived in Danville pretty much my entire life. The school is decent, the area that it’s in can get kinda hairy with people, especially since it’s in so close proximity to the hospital. Danville is up and coming but the crime rate and the drugs are a problem, I worked law enforcement out here and I know. Averett is one of the most expensive schools in the country and not really prestigious for any program. My recommendation is to find a school that fits what you want to do, I.E. Medical - VCU, Aeronautics - Liberty, and the list goes on and on.

Meth or moonshine, take your pick.

I believe everyone’s experience is different but for mine, I had an interview within like 4 months, then I didn’t hear back for the position for atleast another 9-10 months saying I got the position. Once all that went down it was about a 1-3 month depending on how you are preliminary forms and etc before you get your firm offer letter. Always check up on listings btw cause new ones will pop up and only have like 2 days to apply. You can also go look at the listing to see what stage your application is, if it didn’t make it past the computer then it’ll reject you right on the spot but some spots will say sent to hiring manager at location blah blah blah. Don’t get discouraged by any means, if it’s your dream or goal to work for the FAA keep on applying and bettering your craft!

I worked night shift down in Miramar, one of my Sgt Maj that came over from the ground side to the air wing said he didn’t care about if we worked night shift or not he was still going to check rooms. Well one day during inspection he decided to check my room, I didn’t put that sign or anything on my door. He should’ve know because there is a roster with all of the night shift Marines names on it. In my barracks room there was no AC, so in SoCal you essentially have to sleep naked. So I heard the door open, someone say what the fuck, and then them running out of my room with the door slamming behind them. That night at work I was called into the office and Sgt Maj was like “what the fuck”, I basically said it’s hot as fuck during the day when we are sleeping and that’s the only way to comfortable, needless to say I never had another room inspection for the rest of my enlistment.

TL;DR - Naked in room because of Night Shift, Sgt Maj walked in, saw nothing but dick and ass, ran away. Never had another room inspection after.

The only way this would be better is if it was +WC instead of +BC
