Non compete clauses are very weak everywhere especially when you get into professions. Most companies would do better with trade or business secret issues than non compete clauses. If you are trained for a specific work the courts will not block you from practicing. The main caveat is unless...
Bacr15BB rivets are protruding head MS20470. The main difference between a CE and a 1097 is the fastener coating. The CE designation has been superceded by BACR15GF the specification is different I believe again it is just the finish but it is completely interchangeable with a 1097.
If you...
Move to Alberta. Any company with a refinery or processing facility in Alberta.
If you have a pulse they will hire you. Every field is that way now. Chemical Engineers are in very short supply.
Just ensure to communicate clearly. Poor english/communication skills are your worst enemy.
I have to ask.
Did this never occur to anyone as a possibility before?
Does anybody think this is the first time it has ever happened?
Duh?
My favourite was the loose pit bull in the bag pit that chewed through the raceway. That was safety of flight.
The little crawling things bug me more...
Steve sorry I missed you when I was back in april. My wife cut's off my internet access on holidays...
I will give you a ring. Next week I have your number. I know a couple in BC one at Cascade (Brent M he was in your class)and a couple at SPAR in Edmonton.
I am kind of isolated now in Tx so...
That's the beauty of it. If you went you'd know. Engineers love acronyms so my wife says......

I was wondering how many SAIT AET grads are registered here?
How many have gone to get PE's.

I understand the GA world completely and you are totally correct. The first time you question a customers aircraft unwisely, transport category or restricted even, you will get your anatomy handed back to you (if you are lucky).
Sorry if I came across too strong but I seem to spend...

Back to the caveats. It is different as a GA, Restricted or a transport cat. Which is it?
I agree with your position. However it is not usually your responsibility to recertify every repair on the aircraft. Nor is it your responsibility to check anything outside the maintenance...

Having confirmed that you have at least one substandard repair, you now need to go over the aircraft with a fine tooth comb. You have already alluded to the fact that there are more. You may be more right than you think you are.
Have you or your supervisor talked to the...
Have a list of "successes" from last year. If need be ensure they get listed. Be sure to document everything beneficial that you can. Depending on the company but most set goals for next year, think what yours will be. Never feel pressured to sign them on the spot. You can acknowledge the...
This largely hinges on your local FAA in my opinion. You can come from either extreme.
The NTO is largely irrelevant other than for possible support of the broadcasting issues. Structurally it has no use unless the TCAS OEM has data to support the structures change.
If you assume the antenna...
Gents,
I thought it was pretty clear on the 29th Boeing defines edge margin as the center of the hole to the edge of the parts, SRM 51, period.
Everybody else in industry defines that as edge distance. Again that's clear.
Who cares how they got there? You just need to be cognisant of it and...

You missed the point completely. That was 100% countersink!
In a given sheet assembly you can use a bigger rivet period. The prefered failure method in primary structure is bearing. For that you need a bigger rivet.
The deeper the countersink the more likely fatigue cracks are...
I to would be preparing for an exit. It is always better to do so on your terms. The old adage that it is easier to find a job when you have one is true.
Good Luck don't them grind you down!
