I teach hydraulics and in-flight refueling systems on C-130's currently, but those days are getting numbered now. I just submitted a package for the Presidential Support Team & Air Force 1. That will take almost a year for the Yankee White clearance, so more than likely I'll spend some time either back on the flightline or hydraulic shop next year.
My wife is going for her Master's in Midwifery currently as well, and I'm sure we'll need the extra money from that in order to survive in Washington again once I retire from the AF.
