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?

Where did you go to school for this?

I am looking into the aviation industry currently but im looking more into being a pilot. However I'd be happy doing anything. I've got some old P&W wwII era stickers if you want 1 to suck up to them let me know :-)

University of Connecticut, Still persuing my BS, I am a sophomore. I would love one if you'd be willing to give that up? I am sure that would impress the boss hehe

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.

I just looked at my stickers, I only have 2 Pratt & Whitney so sorry!

If you go and get an internship for Curtiss Wright though I could send you a few!
