Technical operations personnel can set up a simulator to mirror what is hap- pening in f light. This often leads to much faster troubleshooting time for in-f light or operational issues."

"Gulfstream aircraft are built to f ly, so f ly them as much as you can." Based on the rate of change in the last 25 years at Gulfstream, I would suggest that future A MTs will need to be familiar with 3-D or additive manufacturing, maintain supersonic busi- ness aircraft, and might even be using nanorobots to chase the gremlins out of the avionics bays.
