Hi guys!

Just finished my engineering degree (#@%$#!ing get in) and was thinking I want to find a job to do with kiting. Then it twigged! I'm an engineer, kites need to be engineered... this is genius! Any idea how to get into the industry?

I am obviously going to do a lot of emailing and telephoning but didnt know if anyone has any good contacts or ideas?

Thanks in advance!

it probably depends on what kind of engineer you are....aeronautical?

You and everyone else, Superdog ... good luck!

Not Aeronautical but Automotive with leanings toward motorsport - I did my thesis on aerodynamics.

Just contact each company individually, again and again, i guess!

Or go out and design and build a kite of your own. Get others to fly it become known as a kite designer and sell you designs off to other makers (notably the Chinese) or hope to be picked up by a real company. Either way you're talking a lot of personal investment with little return and the likely need to have another "real" job to support your kiting job.
