    Yeah the place were working at right now has a big contract with Ft. Bragg and its a lot of military work. Sadly the only PT6 powered plane they have left now is that Otter. They have 2 CASAs and I think a Caravan, all with Garretts.

    Though most of our business comes from working on these beauties. Which I like, theyre way more open and easier to work on than any King Air or Otter lol.

    Guess I can update on here. Been working as a fish biologist for the past few months. It's been a fun and exciting transition. Super stoked to start my career in such an amazing location.
