Helicopter FEA- Stress

Jan 12, 2004 4 Replies

Does any one know where I might find 5 or 6 Degreed ME's with a FEA background in Aerospace or Defense? Project Location is Huntsville AL.



Need to be US citizens with a clean record so we can process a SECRET CLEARANCE



Annual Salary is 75-80K



15 years experience with analysis skill, NASTRAN, PATRAN and Hand Calcs.

Or 4-5 years experience for 35-40K



Will be working on next generation Helicopters for ARMY. Very Cool Secret Stuff.



Please let me know

What, experience with living off the land? Will that buy a double-wide down there?

Gee, that's not much over a decent starting salary.

Damn,

That is funny. Is this post a joke? I could 35-40K as a manager at McDonald's. I have never seen anything so absolutely ridiculous in my entire life. The engineers I work with would look at that salary and laugh.

Yes, it is that bad out there? I was making 35K in 1988. Hmm, I'm not making *that* much more now. My income has fallen to its 1996 level. Of course, moving to Florida and taking whatever I could find had a lot to do with the change. It took me a while to convince the company that I work for now that I really wanted to be an engineer. I'd been a manager or director for years and my resume reeked non-contributor though I was a *working* manager.

Whoo boy. Secret stuff.

The Army Research Office funded my education at one of the three (at that time) Rotorcraft Centers of Excellence.
