I'm here again..
I work for a company that oversee a number of mental health entities. I'm in the creative services team which is a sub part (so to speak) of the communications team.
I'm working late on freelance development, not 9-5 stuff.
Photo of me inside a 4.5 million litre drinking water reservoir I was in charge of resealing. Cool project to be managing less than a year out of uni (winter last year, graduated end of 2009)!
Glad to see some other civil engineers on here too
well i'm officially a student but i work the weekend on my parents dairy farm in hawkes bay. love being out in the middle of nowhere its awesome. farming pays waay better than engineering when your a student too!

Need more videos of the drift ute Rhys!
Oh and that photo doesn't do the view any justice!
perhaps next you come back with me we can make some vids of some sweet downhill drifts you think??
yeah pictures can't describe the view.
I thought you were the guy on the right seat.View from part of my office
Flight Deck of 767-3 (me in the left hand seat)
umad?
Bumpity. Little fire pump skid I designed up that we started for the first time today. 300L/min of water at 1300kPa. Throws a foam water mix 30m. When we do the test with foam, I'll post up a vid.

i love playing with AFFF
one of the air force guys bumped the auto sprinkler system on the flight deck which aligns the AFFF tank with the sprinkler system, starts a couple of fire pumps and the automatic sweeping sprinklers. Used 400L of AFFF before they realised what was going on and made one hell of a foam slick over the flight deck and a huge lot in the water round the ship.
Not my 'office' yet, but one day soon- still training. Heading over to Westport from Christchurch 4 days ago at 9,500 feet (almost 3 km above sea level). Groundspeed was about 270km/h when pic was taken. Loving life atm

Obviously I've had WAY toooooooooo many jobs, haven't got shots of most of the places I've worked/stuff I've worked on. Spent 14 years in the Armed forces as an aircraft engineer, then a couple at Air NZ on widebodies then ran a workshop at a privately owned golf course, then building stainless and carbon bits for for export for superyatchs, then contracting working on aircraft again (commercial and military in NZ and Oz) and finally settled down a little into maintaining the Balance of Plant at a power generation plant in Akl. Oh and mixed in with all that is freelance photography at motor racing - mostly in Oz including V8's Unfortunately most of the interesting military aviation stuff they don't let you take cameras and even cell phones aren't allowed
^^ Nice![]()
Here's one thing I got up to on Thursday. Were supposed to do this and commission 4 other deluge systems. This was the only thing that went right that day....
Step Up Transformer deluge water spray system at Kwinana Power station's new HEGT units (one of two on site. We did the first before Christmas).
Design density - 10mm/min/m2 which in this case equates to 2550L/min at 550kPa.

i dont get pins and needles....i get machetts and knives
Got a pretty cool job at the mo, working for the family business
A Jetstream having the landing gear cycled, left hand engine is also away for overhaul
Took this today, one of the turbos on a Piper Mojave, these engines make about 350hp each but the turbos allow them to produce that power to fairly high altitudes
