Hi, welcome.

What sort of engineer were/are you, there are many such jobs with engineer in their title, (sorry if being nosy)

 

[Remodot]

Hi there. No problem. I was a mechanical engineer however spent most of my working life on aircraft wire and cable systems. E.g. radar systems, communications, sensors, weapon systems (not in the forces) basically if it needs wiring and connector designing with routing in harsh areas/conditions etc I was on it.

So a bit more complicated than Anderson Powerpoles?

 

[Remodot]

Yes a little more complicated.

 

[koolpc]

Did you work on any Airfix planes? Lol

Welcome aboard!

That's where it all started some 60 years ago. Although I preferred Meccano.

Ooh sounds very interesting, I'm a mechanical engineer, well moved into project management now working on large diesel engines

Have you worked on any old planes/restorations?

Unfortunately not.
