You're so right old boy. If you don't like it, why do it? Unfortunately so often we get trapped in a career that we don't enjoy, but have no choice as there just aren't the options out there like there used to be. For the most part I have enjoyed all my career choices. I have been self employed for most of my life which has it's own unique advantages and disadvantages.

Hi QL,
J-C indeed. There's a Bristol type 170 Freighter hanging up in Winnipeg's aircraft Museum that I built the engines for.
Well, my Journeyman actually built them while I passed him the parts, but that still counts, right?
