Let Me Introduce Myself.

My name is Robert McKenzie.  I would bet that I'm probably the oldest student here.  Lets just say that I have lots of experience in lots of areas.  

I'm here at MGA attempting it get an Associate Degree in Aircraft Maintenance Technology.  It won't help me in my career so is mainly for self fulfillment.  My Wife says “that’s a bunch of crap!  Nevertheless, I have set a goal and I’m going to achieve it.

My interests are anything to do with airplanes and/or aviation.  I have always had a “thing” for airplanes. Ever since I was a kid, whenever a plane flew within earshot, I had to look.  I’ve seen a million of them but it doesn’t matter, I’ve got to look.  Its what I do.  Sometime I wonder what I would be doing if those two bicycle mechanics from Ohio didn’t  follow their dream and discover powered flight. I can’t imagine. 

I also like to ride my motorcycle. I’ve got a 2005 Yamaha V-Star 1100 Silverado for those of you who are curious.  I don't seem to be able to find the time to ride as my other boss keeps me busy around the house.  It seems like I’m working on it, washing it, or moving it from one spot in the garage to another.  I’ll post pictures later (By this I mean when I figure out how).

I don't have many pictures of myself for the blog because I don't do selfies (that's a clue to my age).  For some reason they just don’t look like me. 

Until we talk again.

  1. Welcome to 1101, Mr. McKenzie. My son is in the US Navy working on aircraft — his specialty is avionics. I confess my knowledge of aircraft is limited to knowing how to board and find my seat. Fortunately, I do know how to write, so I can be of some help here.
