We call ourselves A&Ps do you know what that stands for ? and when I said YOU all call yourselves engineers, is why I snapped that I was amongst the kind of idiots that Aussie aviation is so well known for. go sweep the dingo crap out of your seat Captain and go fly your wingie thing.
I will make you eat your words and I am a certificated Airframe and Power-plant Technician what kind of ticket you got, mouth ?
And that is right I said brit commonwealth that is what we call all you ex-brit people who have a picture of the queen on your money ? Including Canada though I will say they have an excellent aviation industry.
If not for the market the USA created I wonder where it would be today? All/most tech growht has resulted from the "new world". No disrepect all aircraft maintainers are my brethren. Just a respect for history and the present day.
