You have just earned the hardest rating in Aviation. What you do with it is up to you. More than any other job I can think of, people who fly in any aircraft you maintain will have to implicitly trust that you have done the right thing, even if it means grounding an aircraft. Most of the work you do, only you will ever really know if the job was done right.
The money in this career field is hard to find, and respect rarer still. But, being an A&P is something you do because you want to.

Welcome to the club.

Many congratulations!

All the best,
Richard

Welcome to the club.

This is VERY well put. You can say to yourself after working on it, would you get in it and fly it??? Dont get yourself in a issue when your heading out the door at the end of the day and your on your way home............"did I or did I not put that cotter pin in????"

I always go by the idea that when a airplane comes in the door, I like it to leave in a better condition then when it came in.

One more note......................PILOTS ARE NOT GOD!!!! You can let them think that all they want but I like to use my friends responce to a complaining pilot. The Pilot says, "I am responsible for 19 people on this airplane." and my friend replies, "well I am responsible for 21"

Way to go!

I'm a 20,000 hour pilot, but I still laugh at the line, "You can teach a monkey how to ride a bicycle, but you can't teach him how to fix it!"

Good luck,

Dave
