JonTex Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 Well this is my job. I thought I would finally pry the digital camera from my wifes clutches and bring it to work .... hehe jk. But I did bring my camera to work and uploaded a few pics of Ellington Field and some of the aircraft that I see everyday. I figured some of yall would get a kick out of what I look like and at the same time take a glimpse of my small piece of the world. Ive done this for two very good reasons. 1. I hope this gives you a better understanding of who I am 2. I hope to see yall do the same by posting your pics of yourselves and your jobs Im interested in seeing the the various community members in their small section of the world and most importantly matching a face with your screen names here in the forums. visit this link: http://defcon5movie.com/Gallery edit: I will be uploading more pictures when i get home so check back regularly :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

warthogmadman987 Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Hahah, lol, those pics were taken with a cam just like mine, an old outdated, heavy cam, which has horrible megapixels, and always has the yellow text in the corner, and is always stuck on the date 1.1.1997! So Funny, glad to know that im not the only one still using it! (I hope its the same cam, otherwise my heart is crushed and i wasted time posting this)
JonTex Posted January 13, 2007 Author Posted January 13, 2007 hehe ... yea sounds like the same camera. It is pretty old technology wise.... lol [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Brit_Radar_Dude Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 2. I hope to see yall do the same by posting your pics of yourselves and your jobs Im interested in seeing the the various community members in their small section of the world and most importantly matching a face with your screen names here in the forums. You may regret asking us to show our ugly mugs, but here goes anyway. Spinning some Techno at a house party a couple of years ago. I've retired now, but here's some pics of stuff I worked on back in the day. Marconi 743 radar. Sold to Greece, Thailand, Malaysia, etc. Raytheon Condor SSR radar. Sold to half the countries in the world. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Sorry Death, you lose! It was Professor Plum....
JonTex Posted January 15, 2007 Author Posted January 15, 2007 pictures taken 10 years ago? nah, im just not sophisticated enough to change the date in the camera. Truth be told I think the battery went out that keeps the internal date current with the photo that you take. So it keeps reverting back to the default date of 1-1-97. Hehe cool to hear that im not the only one with that problem. You may regret asking us to show our ugly mugs, but here goes anyway. never i picture all of ya having faces only a mother could love anyway ... lol. jk. No its nice to match a face with the posts in here that way your not just a name and avatar. Thats cool stuff I didnt know you worked those type radars. That must have been a blast. Did you do a lot of traveling? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Brit_Radar_Dude Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 Not much travelling as I was working as sub-contractor most of my career so the permanent staff get most of the trips. Did have a week in Atlantic City for some meetings with the FAA. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Sorry Death, you lose! It was Professor Plum....
madcat- Posted January 21, 2007 Posted January 21, 2007 nice job you have, jontex! what exactly you do in NASA? groundcrew? and what base is that? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
JonTex Posted January 22, 2007 Author Posted January 22, 2007 I am an avionics technician on T38s. Yes we could be considered ground crew but we do maint. as well. That is Ellington Field in Houston Texas. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
CrazyAggie05 Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 My office: And me :) My small part of the world: More here: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v363/crazyaggie05/t-38/ I love my job :pilotfly:
JonTex Posted February 2, 2007 Author Posted February 2, 2007 holloman airbase i see. We have T38As fly in from there all the time im sure you have been to my small part of the world once or twice. haha small world after all. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
CrazyAggie05 Posted February 2, 2007 Posted February 2, 2007 I've been to your part of the world because I'm from San Antonio, not with these guys. I'm just a peon waiting at Holloman to go to pilot training. I wish I was going cross country but we just get area sorties. Those are some great pictures you got. It must be exciting to work out at that field. I went to NASA last year with my cockpit design class and got to tool around in the shuttle sim. There is so much neat stuff out at NASA! I love my job :pilotfly:
