get up before the sun make sure me and my uniform is presentable (shave haircut in regs ect) go to work to morning "roll call" flight chiefs verify everyone who should be there is there get the flying schedule and told any maint that needs to be done (timed preventive maint and such or if doing a big job turnover from previous shift) after higher ranking people go to office to do paperwork and such lower would get all tools for the day depending on what needed to do that day would go do what we needed or just sat around doing training and everything else until we heard our callsign on the radio or when a jet lands with problems and of course play political games whenever we werent doing anything pretty much sums it up

i only worked on 2 aircraft the c-130 H and J model (so tech 3 the j model was very different) and the kc-135 refueler i hated the c-130 it is a 4 fan trash can esp the old models break constantly and are mostly hydro mechanical propellers so complicated hard to work on and the J model was very computerized and had alot of tech crap that was very confusing the kc-135 i loved it very reliable engine same as on 737's mostly easy to work on also because it was designed to be a commercial jet engine (it is called Commercial Fan Motor-56 or CFM-56)
