Job Profile

Working as an Aviation Mechanic, it is your responsibility to conduct inspections and maintenance of aircraft engines, pressurized sections and landing gear. With more sophisticated planes, the mechanic is given a task of retrieving important diagnostic data from the consoles and electronic boxes that track the basic routines of the plane.

It is the job of the Aviation Mechanics to handle all maintenance records associated with the aircraft. When analyzing an engine, you will need direct access to it. In some cases, you need to disassemble the engine with the help of specialized equipments and for invisible cracks, you may need X-ray equipment. Once your engine analysis is finished, you must substitute or repair any defective parts.

Aviation Mechanics also repair composite surfaces and sheet metal. When measuring control cable tension, you need to be extra careful. Aviation Mechanics specializing in power plants are work on the engines. However, their role is limited when it comes to propellers. Aviation Mechanics specializing in airframes can work on any aircraft part but they are not allowed in the equipment and power plant. A&P Mechanics can implement work on all aircraft parts except equipment. The airframe consists of fuselage, tail assembly and wings brakes.

The main responsibility of Avionics Technicians is to repair and maintain the aircraft’s avionics systems. These systems are an important part of the overall aircraft design. With the advancement in technology, more and more Aviation Mechanics focus on repairing electronic systems.

My friend was in a flight program at his school that would allow him to recieve his pilot’s liscense when he’s 17 which is in 3 months. The program was canceled a few weeks ago and he found out it will cost him $17,000 to finish his training. He cant afford to continue it and this is his life. Any ideas on how he could continue his training would be very helpful.

Flight School or College Aviation Training?

flight editor — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 00:46:16 +0000

What do you think is the better choice to go with?
I want to become a pilot but what do you think would be cheaper, and have the better training?
I flight school? or a college with a flight training program.

Thanks in advance!
Thanks!

I am allready going to college, so I can get my degrees, but they are for me to fall back on if my aviation career doesnt “take flight” (i couldn’t resist)

So the only advantage to going to a college for training, is a degree?
and college costs more right?
