I couldn't find this particular item on dice.com, could you send me more
information? I'm interested since the production F-16 transitioned from an
analog to a digital flight control computer roughly 15 years ago! The F-16XL
was upgraded more recently, but as far as I know that work is already
complete.

There are a number of openings for Ada-savvy engineers at Fort Worth, on
F-22 and other programs. Go to

http://lmpeople.external.lmco.com/careers/search.asp

and search for requirement numbers  10639, 19553, 21097, 21384, and 21389.
Some of these are looking for more than one person.

Marietta has an urgent need for Ada-knowledgeable engineers for both flying
and ground-based software, I think even more so than Fort Worth. See the web
page referenced above.
