I get to work on some pretty cool stuff. My primary job entails integrating Garmin Flight Decks (G500, G1000, G2000 etc.) into aircraft. I am currently working on both TC and STC projects. Occasionally they let me work on the experimental systems (G3X) .
I worked for GEAE designing thrust reversers and aerostructures directly out of college.
Then accepted a propulsion engineering position at an unmanned aircraft Systems company in 2004 doing engine development and integration. Now I have been relegated to managing the propulsion engineering group at said UAS company.

Sig600...the Strad is probably around the cost of a used LearJet. Certainly nowhere near as pricey as some of the iron that other folks in this thread are given resposibility for (we're looking in your direction, Paul).
355DW...fiddle tunes sound great on it, but when I was a student I made money playing, among other places, on the streets in Manhattan. The 3 things I learned are 1) Loud is good 2)Louder is better
(you want a violin that goes to 11) and most important 3) Play duets with a REALLY good looking girl. Even after a 50/50 split you make more
