Got called last Saturday (9th) to go over there and fix a plane. Got there on the 11th, changed a propeller for a leak, new one was leaking worse than the one I took off. Got to sit around and wait for another prop to come over. The plane it (new prop I ordered) was on had problems of its own, took a week to get to me. Sat on the beach/toured around all day, drank beers all night, good times, even made an a$$ load of extra money (ie:new heads) for doing it. I love my job!! Gone for 11 days, best part... now that I'm back my daughter won't leave me alone, keeps saying how much she missed me...she even got cuter. Later...good luck

Sounds like an interesting job. I wish I got paid to fly around and fix stuff. I just get paid to sit in a submrine and fix stuff. Kinda get sick of the same environment all day everyday. I love the job though.

Even better that your daughter missed you so much. Hope you got everything on that plane fixed.......

if i had to fix planes for a living. i know i won't fly in them. lol

Spain is a beautiful country and the people all hang out at the bars, and restaruants.
i was told by the owner of a bar when i was in spain about 15 years ago, i was 10. if you could look over the bar you can buy all the smokes and drinks you want. none of this 18 and 21 bull****. of course he said in spainish, but i was in heaven. lol

so what part did you stay in?
