I'm an aerospace engineering drop-out, with a flying background and lots of composite fabrication experience and a passion for aerospace. I started working for Rutan when I was 27 (a little over 13 years ago) as a structures technican and ended up as purchasing manager...before I was hired away from them three months ago.
So the answer is "Not much."
Some of the best engineers there don't have degrees-- they're just really friggin smart...or, in my case, just lucky.
