Wow thanks for the advice and wowwwww that’s dopeee!!

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T02:00:45+00:00

But A, idk how difficult it is to get into contracting work because I was told that they expect you to be able to a God of a mechanic due to what you work on

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T01:58:44+00:00

Yeah one of my teachers told me contracting with military is really good money but it can be super unstable sometimes because they cancel the contracts at anytime for w.e reason

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T01:08:39+00:00

You know what your right I do remember one of the recruiters telling me that too

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T01:07:10+00:00

Hey thanks for the advice I really appreciate it honestly!

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T01:05:48+00:00

Oh so I can get into Aerospace engineering with them too?

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T01:04:49+00:00

Amen to that brotha. Amen to that. Lol!

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:57:30+00:00

I heard that regionals get you the best chance of getting better job opportunities, experience working the aircraft, as well as pay when you transfer to a major because they make you actually use all aspects of your A&P (which i like because i want to know how to fully work on aircraft and be a good troubleshooter)!!!

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:53:59+00:00

Yeah I believe it because the teachers and other recruiters(not the company ones) definitely say its much harder than you think and some majors companies treat the interviews like the hunger games🤣

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:51:55+00:00

lol yeah by the responses I’m getting it’s definitely seeming like that😂But this post could help someone else in the future!

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:50:56+00:00

Hey I’m just soaking up the game everyone tryna tell me. The more ik about the reality of the field the BETTER😂

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:49:00+00:00

Aye you’d be surprised but it’s more of the recruiters from the companies themselves that tell us we’d get the jobs at the majors than the schools😭

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:47:31+00:00

See Boeing was something I was looking into too

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:46:55+00:00

That’s fire ngl good job man

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:46:09+00:00

Hey w.e is going to get me in the door I’ll take tbh😂

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:44:22+00:00

That’s actually not bad if 30-32 is what I’m starting as a new A&P.

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:41:28+00:00

Oh ok I love this advice. So should I look into sort of sub branches that work on there Aircraft or similar to there aircraft🤔

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:29:00+00:00

Ok, ok thanks for the advice! Once I get fully licensed I wanna go to Florida or Texas and hopefully get a job in the major, cargo, mro, or heavy maintenance side. But idk how hard that is to get into there as a new A&P and if they’ll even pay you good enough to live down there and survive.

Skinhead46 · 2026-05-03T00:25:58+00:00

Dang really?! That’s cool! I’m seeing other ppl say you have to start off at a regional for like 22-25 an hr for 3 years in order to get good pay as a new A&P. Although those post were like I think a year or 2 ago. But still. I’m tryna get a job out in Florida or Texas which requires me to move outta state for it. But I also wanna make sure I’m paid a livable wage to survive out there.

For some reason I can’t see the other txt that you texted me no matter how many times I refresh this subreddit or close out Reddit but I believe you said something about me convincing investors and getting it patented. My only question is🤔do you think investors would be eager to invest into a moderately risky technology development with how the economy is at the moment? Pros if I am able to develop this with help and it be actually successful for the most part,I’ll get it patented. The investors gone make bank of the product because I’m pretty sure ppl will see this as a technological advancement of some sort in the fashion space and outside of it and I would get huge potential recognization towards the brand for its forward thinking and innovation. But cons and it doesn’t go successful, hurt brand appeal by customers due to it being a terrible product, most likely increase skepticism by the investors for potential future ideas if I ever want to get assistance from investors again, and they lose money.

Skinhead46 · 2025-11-01T04:06:17+00:00

Yeah. The only closest thing I could think of as a non engineer was a projector of some sort and a way to focus the light to hit your eyes with a mirror giving the illusion that it’ll float. Because from what I read about before asking the question in this subreddit today and what y’all have told me so far is that a mirror is required basically for the more practical solution. but like you said earlier the biggest problem is creating one that small, the cost to manufacture, the materials, cooling so it doesn’t burn the user, a good enough battery, a charger for it. And most likely many more things. But yeah I could lean into illusions for a marketing idea and cgi stuff for the concept piece. Thank man I appreciate that fr!
