I learned to fly when I was working at Simmonds. They were only involved 
with the fuel management systems but I figured knowing how airplanes 
worked would be good. Besides, I was bored out of my mind and there was an 
airport handy at Middlebury.

Fuel management in military aircraft is fairly interesting. They tend to 
have things falling off like rockets and bombs and stuff that affects the 
CG.
