Welcome to APSC, "Nikdol"

Why thank you all ! I hope to add some photos as soon as I figure out how to do so....!

A little background: I am an Aerospace nerd by more than choice. My parents took me to airshows when I was still in a stroller, so it is kind of in my blood. have been PRIVALEGED enough to be in the business since 1985 - the first parts I worked on were for the B-1B, then have worked on various stuff through out the years including time spent at Rocketdyne testing engines up at Santa Susana, and have been lucky to work on stuff that is now on Mars (although that doesn't count because none of us can go up there to photograph it, right?). I currently work for a company that overhauls and repairs sub assemblies (H-60 Blackhawk Hydraulic Pumps and Blade Dampeners, CH-47 Vibration Absorbers and Blade Dampeners), as well as manufacturing spare parts for everything from the A-10, KC-135, C-5, F-16, F-15, AH-64, H-60, UH-1N, etc.

Cool, Welcome aboard Nick.  Guess you know Skip already?  Don't hold that against us.    One of my co-workers use to be on the B-1 project  back at Rockwell.

My uncle worked for Rockwell/Rocketdyne, and now Boeing. Although he recently retired.

He was a supervisor in the shuttle main engine program.
