Hey fellas,
I spent 5 years in the Marine Corps working AV8B's, both land based and ship based. EAS--had my Private quickly. Couldn't borrow another dollar from any lender. On the cusp of my commercial and Instrument. Went on to get my A&P. I've spent many years now working a multitude of aircraft from Cessna 150's to Air Force II. Currently working a KingAir (B300 with MT props) Contract.
Mike

@Jim Hausch II, I have not, the only Beech products I've worked are K.A. 300 and 350's.

Am I the only one who read this subject and thought it was about three people: an old guy, a private, and an A&P? I figured they were about to walk into a bar. Welcome, Mike!

Welcome to the Beech Community Mike  The ABS organization would be a great place to start to go to their mechanics/IA conference/school. It would help all of us to know your general area of practice, base airport and/or region of operation. Thanks, Mike
