Goodyear Blimp

Cool. I just found a posting for a job opening for an experienced technician to work on the electronic equipment on the Goodyear blimp. Sounds pretty cool. They were looking for someone with knowledge and experience in all manner of tv, radio, microwave, avionics electronics. Fits me to a T.

Just emailed my resume to them. I think that it would be a pretty fun job traveling all over with the airship and maintaining her communications gear and lighted signs.

Keeping my fingers crossed on this one. Sounds like a good time.

I wish you all the luck Mason!

If you get it, I'll be jealous. Not really. Why can't I get a cool job like that?

I guess being a CAD Technician, I'm resigned to working in the "dungeon" of an office.

that would be pompano beach fl. good luck on the job (youre probably better off there; they managed to crash the one out here last winter or the winter before...probably due to the hellacious redondo that whips thru here on occasion)
