Hi Kenneth, I am glad to know that we can still find Diehard mechanics/Aviation technitians like yourself who inspire all of us to keep serving this Industry, hungry for real Aircraft Mechanics who value their Profesion.

My name is Sam Grandez, with 28 years of Experience as a Mechanic, Holding an A&P Certificate, with large experience on military and comercial aviation. currently based in Australia working for Boeing.

Currently I am in the final stages of compiling /writing a Book about ourselves(The Mechanic) with 10 chapters such as.' In the Trenches'(real Experiences where we can highlite our important and critical/lifesaving role), 'The Quality' chapter,(its deterioration with the time, due to Money driving isuues and the consecuently exposure of the mechanic to this dangerous practice) Also there is a Chapter dedicated to the Early Mechanic Pioners like Charles Taylor. If I canm have your contribution on any thing relevant to expouse the importance of our profesion I will appreciate.

Thankyou very Much

Sam Grandez
