Learn what i did, 393rd Bomb squadron electronic warfare AFSC 2A553C( bomber Defensive Avionics). I wasn't in charge of just one aircraft. I wasn't a crew cheif who was stuck on one aircraft. We had 10 but rotated a few for depot maintence. So for EPR's and everything the superiors claimed 8 aircraft. On a average day i was doing stuff on atleast 7 aircraft. So 8 x 2.2 Billion = 16billion ish.

Learn USAF operations, yo

squadron I used to be in: http://www.whiteman.af.mil/organizations/393BS.shtml
about 2 weeks before I got out the maintance side seperated from the Flight Operations side to this squadron: http://www.whiteman.af.mil/organizations/AMXS.shtml

I don't know you bro but, I pulled a little info from your CFETP about the duties and respoonsibilities of a journeyman in your career feild.

4.2.2. Electronic Warfare Systems Journeyman (2A553C). Performs and supervises maintenance on avionic EW, intercept, and analysis equipment. Isolates malfunctions by inspections, voltage checks, resistance measurements, waveform observations, and other tests using SE, built in test equipment, or computer aided diagnostics and manuals. Adjusts or
replaces defective units or components. Repairs avionic EW, intercept, and analysis equipment. Repairs intercept, panoramic, and radar warning receivers; jamming transmitters; dispensers; signal analysis equipment; recorders; direction finders; digital computer subsystems; and special
purpose SE. Tests repaired components for proper assembly using bench mockups and test equipment. Adjusts, aligns, and calibrates equipment. Overhauls modules, including replacement of components using hand tools, soldering equipment, and specialized electronic instruments. Modifies EW equipment, and installs components according to technical publications. Posts entries on maintenance and inspection records. Installs and removes

Straight from the CFETP (Career Field Education and Training Plan). Avionics Troops Kick @55 and take names. hua
 
Are you in the USAF?

Avionics are awesome but its hard to get a place in the civi world to find a job. Mainly becuase what it boils down to is jamming others radar.

"Sir, we've been jammed"
"Raspberry there is only one person who dares to give me the raspberry"
 
Ya, I'm AD. I actually have a little more options than your career field when it comes to civi job offerings, I work backshop Avionics Sensor systems, Like U2S, F16, F15, F117, A10, I traditionally work on Low Altitude Navigation and Targeting Infrared for Night (LANTIRN), but now they got me working on the Optical Bar Camera, High altitude wet film recon. but I've been offered jobs to work on infrared aquisition q-ball systems on helicopters for cleveland, sanfran, and columbus. I'm staying in to finish my electrical engineering degree and since I'm already half way to retirement I'm probably going to stay in 12 more.
 
Cool, I throw around the idea about going back every once and a while.

I have a buddy who is Avionics Sensors at Beale AFB, When did you go through Tech school?
 
I hate steeda because he sold his SVT after winning turbo piping for it. It would have been so beautiful!

Carry on with all the airplane talk.
