    Anything they tell me to! I just help out with misc things that need done around the hangar. Today and tomorrow they have me up in McKinney helping move the satellite base into a new facility, which is awesome. The hangar is 3 times bigger than the one at ADS. :eek:

    I haven't messed with jets at all. But I've gotten to help with all kinds of maintenance. I've taken wings off, tails off, helped replaced the main spars, lights, interior stuff, pulled props, nose gear stuff, electrical stuff, etc etc. I've been all over a 172
