They have a big add in the paper today looking for engineers. May work out well for you. When do you graduate? 1 or 2 years left?

I work for Goodrich Aerospace. Most of our work is Pratt and GE engines. I deal with OEM and overhaul components. Mostly thermal deffusion coatings, but I do deal with thermal spray coatings. My specialties are metallography, Noble metals plating, Alloy blending, Pack incemination, Flow check, Scanning electron microscope,etc... things of that nature. I am very familiar with Pratt and GE processes. I've been in the buisness for about 15 plus years. You'll like it. Plenty to learn and keep you busy.
