I have a good friend that is what I call a Harrier mechanic. 20 some years in the Marine Corps.

Yes, he has credentials out the you know what. As far as the type of person to work on these things...Attention to detail, enjoys reading data sheets and manuals, has a protocol for every thing and expects everyone else to also. So much so that he can be a real pain at times but you over look this. They know all to well that there is not a second chance.

The guys and gals that keep these birds in the air for us are are perfectionist, could not be any other way.
