yeah man i know how you feel it sucks. the money is good but the time out here is horrible. so r u stationed in germany if so,atleast when u get back u get to drive z on the autobhan thats gotta be an expiernce my only glory on it was in my rental FIAT

and aircraft mechanic huh i can relate KC-10/C17 Fuel Cell Maintaner worst part about this job tho is we deploy alllllllllllll the time

 

I'm a vehicle mechanic, specifically an aircraft refuler mechanic. My car will be here in roughly 19 more days, so I will have plenty of time to take it out on the 'Bahn before I deploy. I actually like deploying and working in smaller shops. It's nice to actually see your accomplishments in action.

 

this is very true. but the parts in the middle when you are sitting there with absolutly nothing to do time goes by very slow. nothing is like watching a jet take off that you fixed though

 

yeah I imagine its a pretty good feeling. I love sitting around with nothing better to do. It's the only time I manage to get on this site and do research/watch people get clowned on/occasionally get clowned on/buy stuff.

 

I can't stand threads like this. Not because all of use airman and soldiers are in the desert but because we are all away from our Z's and wives. I've got only 10 or so months left before I can dd my dd and test drive my wife again. Been so long I forget the smell, the power, the non lsd slides in the rain, the fun we have had in this 10k mile journey of what seems like a roller coaster.

Ah oh well those 4.08's and 100 shot coming soon should do it very much justice.

 

Feeling the love from Afghan land. Be here till March 2010. AH64 driver so I get to have a little bit of fun. Miss the car like whoa. Dad has it now keeping it shiney and clean. Takes it out on the weekends and has a blast. Good to know its getting a workout and being pampered while I am gone. Cant imagine what people think when they see my 62yr old father and 49yr old mother boosting past them, open dump blasting followed with a very pronounced blow off........priceless mental image

 

I leave for basic in December for the Army, I'm looking forward to basic but scared about how much im going to miss my new Z. Hows the service been for you so far?

 

Your dad recently posted a 12.2 second time slip. Impressive driving.

 

I would love it if he did. Ha. Go dad!
