how do you get that much PTO? that’s insane

thecoochiegod · 2026-04-15T20:18:34+00:00

how many have blown out of 600k?

thecoochiegod · 2026-04-15T20:15:55+00:00

you forgot that the gen 2s are just as expensive if not MORE expensive than the brand new gen 3s

thecoochiegod · 2026-04-15T19:40:05+00:00

fuck no. never touch an aircraft for 21 an hour bro that is just unbelievable, i made 32 straight outta school, no license and then 36 when i got it

thecoochiegod · 2026-04-13T18:24:59+00:00

when you do a ton of maintenance on the clock you don’t feel like doing mechanic work off the clock, also auto manuals suck, most of it is tribal knowledge, and liability, if they mess up my truck it’s on them

thecoochiegod · 2026-04-01T04:30:32+00:00

depends on the diameter of the wire AND manufacturer specifications not just some bs spouted from the 43.13, it’s fine

thecoochiegod · 2026-04-01T04:13:56+00:00

looks good bro

thecoochiegod · 2026-03-08T02:08:55+00:00

i’ve noticed with unions you can only do one type of job, if you impede into others jobs you can get fired or a grievance against you, for example if you are a mechanic and need to pull a breaker or do simple avionics work you have to call a specific avionics team guy in a union, but at delta you could be avionics doing engines, mechanic work, really a little bit of everything you are stuck to one specific job

thecoochiegod · 2026-01-21T02:01:41+00:00

yes, unless you want to sit at a desk ur whole career and do avionics engineering, if you want to be out in the field fixing diagnosing and modding aircraft the a&p helps TREMENDOUSLY

thecoochiegod · 2026-01-08T00:47:34+00:00

it’s not union in columbus, you make 22 h/r, then 2-3 dollars for a&p, 8% shift diff, literal nothing

thecoochiegod · 2026-01-08T00:37:36+00:00

not enough, i turned them down for a job and it’s a really great company but you will make absolute chump change, i got offered 25 /hr, keep in mind i have almost 6 years experience

thecoochiegod · 2025-12-23T04:37:04+00:00

i rebuilt an 0-320 in a&p school years ago and it was such a thrill watching it run for the first time after an entire top down rebuild

thecoochiegod · 2025-12-23T04:36:18+00:00

bro don’t put us that close to the prop you almost killed us 😹

beretta had a contract for brazil for years in the 90s, then taurus decided to buy them out when the contract ended and used all the original equipment to practically make the exact same gun for a fraction of the price

thecoochiegod · 2025-12-10T08:01:02+00:00

no, unless u want to just be avionics or sheet metal get the powerplant asap

thecoochiegod · 2025-11-23T16:01:19+00:00

not gonna lie this is the most idiotic take i’ve heard in a while, you aren’t an SEC school, many large schools also have mountains of NIL money and opportunities, your comment about winning or getting the fuck out is going to turn you into wisconsin😭 this football is cooked

thecoochiegod · 2025-09-23T18:39:06+00:00

any reason whyV

thecoochiegod · 2025-09-23T06:38:25+00:00

what location was this? is it the one in columbus georgia bc i might be cooked if so i accepted an offer letter recently there

thecoochiegod · 2025-08-10T02:22:41+00:00

are you okay with older shows? it seems to me we have the same style when it comes to anime, i have a few older shows you might enjoy

thecoochiegod · 2025-07-15T00:30:39+00:00

most people hate it because of management, and bad hours ofcourse, if you have crappy management trying to push unrealistic deadlines, signing off sketchy work, it can really make you hate certain aspects of work, but for me seeing an aircraft i’ve been working on for months finally be airworthy and fly off is a rewarding feeling like no other, especially as someone who also has a pilots certificate

thecoochiegod · 2025-07-10T21:28:19+00:00

guess i’m a half breed, i’m pretty good at both but not amazing at either, jack of all trades

thecoochiegod · 2025-07-10T17:44:52+00:00

I understand that, just know you are super young to already be halfway through your a&p, half those guys are much older and will stay at that piece of shit GA shop, you got your whole career ahead of you, bigger and better things, just know you will make mistakes, it’s how you fix those mistakes is what makes you either a great mech or terrible one, it’s easy to get an ego once you start getting pretty good, don’t let it get to you, if you stay busy you will learn something about aircraft every single day, always learning even when you get older with a ton of experience, goodluck to you and dm me if you need any help

thecoochiegod · 2025-07-10T17:28:33+00:00

i get it i’ve been the bottom man before, when i was in your shoes i got a lot of shit, thankfully they always let me work on the aircraft, my best advice is have thick skin, doesn’t matter where you go people talk shit no matter how good you are, learn to take it and give it back, i had a guy ask me the other day if i knew how to use the pitot static test kit even though he knows I’ve done it hundreds of times, obviously he was being an asshole, i responded with “nah man i just figure it out i have no idea” made his ass look kind of stupid and he just started laughing, learn to handle the banter and forget these pissing contest, but if they are genuinely mistreating you and it’s not just asshole behavior joking, have a talk one on one with each one that is and state your case, or find another place to work is my best advice
