How’s everyone been? No idea when last I signed into my account, or even played SP. Becoming an adult happened and it came to an end. I suddenly thought of SP and thought I’d touch base again.
Long story short, I’m now in US Army flight school flying the CH-47F. It’s been a wild journey, and I wonder if I ever would have taken this path had I never played SP. Something to think about.
@shipster physics, which should be helpful for thiss website lol
@Axartar nice! What are you studying?
@ShinyGemsBro an airfoil’s an airfoil! I’ll graduate and get my wings either in August or September.
@jamesPLANESii that’s awesome!
@jamesPLANESii well I hope all your tasks are enjoyable and you have a great time working there
@YourLocalJetNut330 Cool! I'm still a junior machinist, so I haven't actually made many aircraft parts yet 😅
Because of the small size of the RNZAF, it's pretty rare that we make the same part more than just a handful of times. Usually the jobs are just one-off repairs or random custom parts and tools. Most of what I get atm is random foreigner jobs from people who need personal things made, or ground service equipment stuff that isn't super high precision.
@jamesPLANESii Cool I help my dad make Databus for military aircraft what’s your favorite plane and/or part to make or maintain
@jamesPLANESii oh, stll sounds like fun
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 I make parts for planes lol.
Good to see you're getting your wings.
...Or rotor blades for that matter.
...But then again, rotor blades are wings in helo context.
..So yeah, you're getting your wings.
@jamesPLANESii nice, what planes do you normally work on?
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 Airforce machinist (basicaly SP irl lol)

I also got a job. Not the military. But i still get some free time, not for long. Wish I found this game sooner.
Nice!
