Default Retired

Today was my last day at GE Aerospace. After 38 years I have finally reached the day of my retirement. It's been a great job and I kind of hate to leave, but I've got other things to do now. Hopefully someday I'll get my shop finished and get to work in it.

Congrats Freddy. The company I work for does a lot of business with GE Aerospace (and others).


My retirement is coming up a year from this October - If not sooner

Congratulations, Freddie !! You may feel a little lost for a short time, but as you said, you'll start doing all the other things you have been putting off and in no time be like the rest of us and wonder how you had time to work a job.. ..
If you want a hand with the shop for a few days, just say so and I will come down and do what I can to help get it in working condition.
