Joe,
Thank you for your kind words.
No, I do not need my PE in my day job. However it does give me a little more credibility than the average Manufacturing Engineer when I need to tell a stress guy or designer that yes it works structurally, but you need to do it this way if you want to actually build it.
I actually did it for my own satisfaction and because things were looking lean in the aerospace industry. I figured I would have a better chance of getting into something else with it than without it. Fortunately this has not yet been necessary. Besides, the problems were fun!
Our team is blessed with not one but three ME PEs and neither of the other two need it for their day job. Maybe we can get together in FL and swap war stories.
Chris Husmann, PE
