Sometimes you find a job; sometimes a job finds you. That’s the moral Wichita resident Eric Meitner learned after he retired from a 22-year maintenance career with Cessna. An A&P technician who served as maintenance manager at the Wichita Citation Service Center, and then head of the post-production flight-test division for the Citation 525 series and Caravans, Meitner was prepared to enjoy his retirement when the phone started ringing. Several of his former customers at the Citation Service Center tracked him down and began calling to chat about problems with their aircraft or to ask if Meitner would be interested in taking a look at a maintenance invoice they received from a shop.
