I've worked on Army helicopters, general aviation aircraft, Gulfstream business jets and large commercial jets. I have enjoyed them all.  Hard to say which I would most prefer doing even though the great majority of my time has been on the heavies.  I am enjoying my current job as a maintenance manager in a large MRO but sometimes wish I was wrenching in a small shop somewhere.  Whatever I do.. it will be aviation maintenance of one type or another.  No doubt there.

I live in the land of Bell Textron & Eurocopter.  I am always watching test flights wishing that I was the one building / repairing / testing the 'copters!
