Can't believe this "old fart" is on here, but I have been impressed by what I have experienced!
I an a retired gas turbine engineer! I have been all over the world putting gas turbine engines into industrial applications. I have worked for Allison, Rolls-Royce, & GE.
I have built and flown a couple of "experimental" airplanes, am a competitive benchrest rifle builder and shooter, and motorcyclist. I have motorcycled all over the US and most of the Alps.
I am looking forward to new contacts on Steemit!

I believe a good intro post can be a door to the success in steemit.
It is not required but could be an advantage to you. I suggest to make a intro post with a picture of yourself holding a piece of paper with the word steemit, yourname and the date. You can also include a link of your facebook profile or any social media accounts.
