On the other hand, a PhD is a very high level of recognition that you have made a new and original contribution to the sum of human knowledge in an area. One might, I suppose, want to have that level of recognition in several areas.

We have a couple of mature students in my current research group who are doing their second doctorate.

Air Capital Update

Levering this thread back on track - some actual FT jobs from today's local Air Capital paper.

Garmin have vacancies for an "Aircraft Certification Systems Engineer & Flight Test Pilot" (BSc, ATP + 1500hrs min) and an "Aircraft Sytems & Flight Test Engineer" (BSc + Avionics experience). Both these are in their Salem, OR, facility (guess that's the ex-2morrow/UPS site). E-mail [email protected].

Bell Helicopter are also advertising for Test Pilots (amongst a lot of other jobs) at www.bellhelicopter.com. There are also multi-job listings for ARINC in Oklahoma City, Kollsman (Avionics) in New Hampshire and L3 Communications in Greenville (Dallas) & Waco, TX (the old E-Systems).

Raytheon (Beech) has a job fair next week and rumour has it that Cessna will also be recruiting soon but, as you may have heard, Boeing (Military) in Wichita will be letting up to 900 "narrow-body" staff go in the next six months as the hoped-for new tanker has yet to materialise (there's still a lot of '47 mods).
