I am currently seeking a position in simulator maintenance or cockpit layout. I can be reached at simulator8@<hidden>.
Simulator Maintenance, Five Years
-- 747-200 Crew Chief. Organized and indexed documentation and kept deferred maintenance log up to date.
-- Shift Leader, Midshift. Picked up simulator log sheets, entered discrepancies into database, assigned discrepancies to other technicians, and entered corrective actions into database. Ensured maintenance logs were kept up to date.
-- Shift Leader, Day Shift. Responded to and resolved trouble calls in a timely manner.
-- Familiar with DC-8, DC-10, 727-100, 727-200, 737-200, 737-300, 747-200, FH-227, BAC 1-11, MD-80, and A300. Successfully completed normal starts and preflight procedures for all of these simulators.
-- Familiar with linkages and linkage troubleshooting for CAE, Link, and Rediffusion simulators. Isolated and replaced linkage boards and cockpit instruments. Followed monitoring procedures for checking the status of analog, synchro, and digital inputs and outputs on CAE, Link, and Rediffusion simulators. Followed system prints and wire lists to trace signals.
-- Familiar with reboot procedures for Digital VAX, GP-4, and SEL 32/77 mainframe computers.
-- Familiar with reboot procedures for Link IMAGE, McDonnell-Douglas VITAL, and E&S SP-1 visual generation computers. Did basic troubleshooting of low-voltage power supplies and deflection amplifiers. Adjusted visual displays for proper focus and alignment.
-- Hydraulic maintenance including replacing oil filters, servo actuator valves, and hydraulic coupling units.
-- Used Illustrated Parts Catalogs and Overhaul Manuals to locate part numbers for ordering parts.
-- Referred to software variable listings and aircraft operations manuals to troubleshoot problems.
-- Completely self-taught in aircraft navigation and aircraft systems. Learned from troubleshooting, pre-flight operations, and independent study.
Cockpit Layout (And Some Aerospace), Two Years
-- Successfully designed electrical hardware for an F-5E aircraft simulator.
-- Selected switches, knobs, circuit breakers, and buttons for the control panels. Designed control panels and cables for interfacing control panels to computer.
-- Designed cables for interfacing simulated aircraft gauges to computer.
-- Selected industrial computer, rackmount chassis, realtime operating system, power supplies, and data acquisition cards used to control all of the cockpit hardware. Obtained quotes on all hardware.
-- Designed interface box to interface computer cables with cockpit cables.
-- Sourced raster, stroke, stroke/raster, and LCD displays for use in the cockpit along with appropriate controller cards.
-- Dealt extensively with sales engineers and manufacturers? representatives.
-- Designed an analog circuit to interface an F-16 joystick to an aircraft simulator.
-- Complete electrical upgrade to water tunnel used for aerodynamic testing.
-- Designed amplification, level-shifting, and display circuit for position-sensing potentiometers to display position of aircraft model in yaw, pitch, and roll accurate to two degrees in two complete turns (720 degrees). Designed for ease of calibration.
-- Designed and built joystick circuit to move model in three axes of motion, using power operational amplifiers to drive motors on model support assembly.
-- Designed and built switchbox to switch between computer and joystick control of aircraft model.
-- Designed and built amplification and level shifting to run signals from model strain gauges into computer.
-- Upgraded all electrical cables in water tunnel.
-- Wrote complete documentation including theory of operation, operation and calibration instructions, schematics, board layout, chassis layout, cable diagrams, interconnection database, parts list, bill of materials, and illustrations.
