am both an engineer and a pilot...

Same here. I've had to show up to sit in the jury pool nearly a dozen
times.

I am in the same situation (engineer and pilot) and was called to jury duty
a few years ago on a case that involved a lawsuit. During the questioning I
told them that I thought that there were too many frivilous lawsuits and
that the awards were ridiculous. I couldn't believe it - I got selected
anyway.
