I agree with ZH875 ring the SAGE, but rather than a telephone converstaion come down and meet us. We are a friendly bunch honest!
The way I always describe it: is I do the same tasks as a liney, get paid as a C/T with crew pay and PWON thrown in, and have the same responsibilties as OC Eng when away. Show me another job where the variety is so good.
It has its downside and you most definitely need the family onboard one hundred percent, but it is without doubt the most interesting and rewarding job any techie in the airforce can do.
If you want specifics (C130K) drop me a PM and I will give you the info from the horses mouth so to speak.
