    Just noticed your comment. Yes 17's are gorgeous. I was fortunate to have had such a close relationship with N18777. Great memories.

    Are there any UPS AMTs that frequent this thread? Or anyone who works in aircraft maintenance at UPS who could answer a few questions I have. It would be much appreciated!

    I think he means AMT for the UPS (united parcel service) fleet.

    It's doing okay. Never fully repaired my wings; needs some more poly spray after I repaired hail damage.

    Found myself in Idaho last month though...20200711_094605.jpg
    I'll be in California come October for Robinson maintenance school then an IA course. I think I'll drive my Tacoma so I have a vehicle to get around with. I'll be in the state three weeks. Maybe four if I play it right. I think I'll have my wife fly out one week and we'll go exploring.

    That clears it up. Sort of the same except the UPS AMT's don't fly along on the plane

    Awesome dude. Definitely let me know if you end up with the bird out here, we should buzz around. Idaho looks great. I went out there in 2018 and loved it, been wanting to go back, but I think I'll wait for the summer heat to die off a little, maybe late August/September.
