Posted: Tue Oct 08, 2013 4:27 pm Post subject: An opportunity too good to miss . . .

It's official. Cessna has made me an offer that

was just too good to go begging - I'll be work

there as a contractor next week for sure, possibly

sooner.



I'll be spending three nights a week in Wichita

away from  distractions like workshops, bins

full of parts, and too many tools. This will be

used to get some writing projects under way,

  . . . not the least of which is Rev 13 to the

'Connection.



This is kind of exciting. Cessna has continuously

evolved and expanded on capabilities that

Beech and Cessna shared about 25 years ago.



Somewhere along the road, powers at Beech decided

they could purchase that work product. They let

all of their labs and skunk-werks facilities go.



This will be the third time I've worked for Cessna.

The first time was on the 310/320 production line

wiring the nose wheel well. That was 50 years ago!

Worked that job for one week and gave them two

weeks notice . . . I got a short tour of the Cessna

electronics design and development facilities that

really got the juices going!



My daytime activity on the List will be limited Mon-

Thurs but we can make it work.

Bob,

Its amazing that you were not fully employed before this.  Looks to me like

Cessna gets the best end of the deal.  Good luck to you.

I have enjoyed your comments and contributions to this list.  I have learned

a lot due to you.

So, tell more!! Anything interesting on the horizon that you can share?



Congrats on the job, and my condolences on having to spend time away 

from family and friends. Hope you are as productive as you plan to be.

Bob,



It's about time that a young guy like you quit messing 

around and start a career.



Have fun with your new gig.  I'm sure you will.

   I'm thinking that this change in direction

   may be relatively transparent to my activities

   here on the List . . . I won't be checking much

   during time walled-off for Cessna but I don't

   expect to change the over-all level of participation.



   Many have expressed concerns that other activities

   might have to be placed on the back burner because

   of new taxations on my time . . .



   Actually, this opportunity may accelerate

   those activities because I'll have discretionary

   cash that opens more options for how my time is

   used as opposed to hiring the time others. It will

   also relieve the bottlenecks for new product development

   in want of seed money.



   I've been taking the free, Hillsdale online courses in

   history and economics. I was thinking last night about

   how this change in direction for my personal behaviors

   will have a ripple effect that extends far beyond those

   things that occupy my own waking hours.



   I highly recommend these courses to any with curiosity

   and a need to better understand how 'spontaneous order'

   can emerge from what appears chaotic.



   So 'bon voyage' flowers are not necessary . . . you're

   not going to get rid of me that easy! But thank you

   all for your encouraging words.

Good Morning 'lectric Bob,

  

 During the time you were associated with the Beech Aircraft Company, I felt  you not only kept us all up to date on owner built stuff, but we benefited from  knowledge gained via your work at BAC.

  

 Glad to see you are working and I am sure that fact will benefit us  all.

  

 Your long time admirer,

  

 Happy Skies,

  

 Old Bob

Well, my opinion of Cessna went up several levels. Congratulations Bob, we all know Cessna will benefit, and it sounds very good for you too.
