I have interest in this opportunity. Where can I get specifics. I live in Herndon, Va at fly at LCAA so Lexington Park is quite a haul.

Do you fly at the RC field near Pax River off Rt 5 ? I visited the field in early April after a memorial service for a friend, former flight safety officer at Pax River. Nice set up there.

Lex Park? This opportunity is in Alexandria, VA.

When I lived in Lex Park, I flew (solo) at a hay farm. I visited the field I believe you are talking about, but never flew there.

Most details I have are in the job posting I listed. Contact me (PM) with other questions or to get an email to submit your resume to.

thanks

Edit: I changed my 'location' in order to remove ambiguity as to the location of the job :)

I sent you a PM yesterday. I see that the job was re-posted on the ITT page Jul 12. I would love to talk to you about this.

I have posted a few pics of old and new projects:

XDrone - I built 5 airframes back in 1985 for Maynerd Hill/APL

Pioneer - I was the project engineer for the all composite wing that is still used for Pioneer and Shadow UAVs.

Freewing Scorpion - I worked for Freewing for most of 1995, built the first production Scorpion60 shown and did all the tooling for it. The one shown became yet another wind tunnel model.
