A failure investigator for a large well known civilian aircraft producer.

Basically any parts that have failed on the wing or undercarriage, we have the job to find out why.

I am a Network Architect - design broadband networks.  I got a fantastic position in Dubai for 2 years that would have set me up for retirement - well almost - and I had the start date and everything agreed but it all fell through right at the last moment  :angry:  Looks like i'll have to stay in Blighty for the time being and get taxed to kingdom come  :cry:

Project Manager for defence company - design systems for fighting vehicles.

AFVs might be a bit slower than Golfs, but the cross-country performance takes some beating!

Looks like the best combination you could get - I'd like to see that in a cross-countrycontest with an AFV.

Maybe Top Gear could arrange it!
