I loved
working at JFK
by
Frederick A.
I worked at Lockheed from 1953 to 1969. I
was hired as a “B” mechanic, and I worked my way up to management. I worked in
Area A on the Presidential Aircraft and updated the aircraft’s engines and performed
other modifications. I also worked on the Lockheed Electra (Project "Up-tilt")
and on commercial airliners.
I was then put in charge of the terminal
service crew, handling all the international airlines to JFK (Idlewild Airport).
I had 16 years of enjoyable service with Lockheed. I then worked at an airline
as a technical engineer. Congratulations on 100 years!
