From the UK too. Seeing those docs gave me a total whiplash! I remember the amount of paperwork we had to do for these kind of projects. Funny how nothing has changed.
It's good practice for working on ESA projects in a professional context ;)
Edit: harsh marking on the risk register. Very realistic practice for dealing with ESA in a professional context! I do like the flowcharts and block diagrams
Woah! We are fortunate to be able to interact with such interesting people. I don't suppose it would be a little cheeky if I asked if you knew anybody I could ask for work experience.

As a Brit expat having lived in the USA for 40 years UK has many positives.
The coastline - beaches, boating, food, scenery.
The stately homes - every 5 miles there is a huge house that now has open gardens and serves tea.

Sport - soccer, rugby, cricket for those that suffer from insomnia and many great golf courses.
