Flaw there though Shytorque is I always wanted to be an engineer since the age of about six, it always fascinated me that I could strip things down, see how they worked and put them back together often better than when they left the factory, blueprinting engines etc. At primary school I was encouraged and used to help look after the school swimming pool, by the age of about nine I hade stripped down and fixed a partially seized lawn mower. Flying and indeed driving bores the pants off me, hence I tend to do less that 4,000 miles per year.
