    Wanted to be Macguyver, so I got my EE degree.

    I was also a crewman anyway, so I didn’t have a pilots license or anything to build off of.

    But yeah, there is not a day that I don’t miss flying.

      Oh, I thought you were a pilot. I guess we have similar stories. I was a crewman on the UH-1H and then became a website developer later in life. I tried to get my civilian fixed wing pilot’s license a few times, but I never had enough money to take it very far. Now I have the money, but I don’t have the hearing.
