What!
You sound like a bloke who has a goood brain in his head. Why not use it to gain a pilot's license as they are treated with far more respect that LAMEs, work fewer hours and that is strictly regulated by law, and they earn considerably more money. In short, pilots have a better lifestyle and have more free time to enjoy it than anyone else in the aviation business, and if I had my time again I would fly for a living, not maintain.
