Приблизительные ответы на существенные вопросы:
| What does an aircraft mechanic actually do? An aircraft mechanic is responsible for repairing aircraft and replacing parts as needed as well as checking aircraft for any problems before and after every flight it takes. Are there different kinds of aviation mechanics? Yes. Aviation mechanic is a broad term that applies to several different positions, including Aviation Maintenance Technical Engineer, Avionics Technician, and Advanced Structures Technician. What kind of environment do aircraft mechanics work in? They work where the aircraft are. This includes in hangars where aircraft are stored and on the runways. How do you become an aircraft mechanic? To become an aircraft mechanic, you must attend a program at an FAA-approved aviation maintenance technician school. The programs will teach you the skills and procedures you need to keep aircraft working effectively. Do I need a special license or certification for aircraft mechanics? You are not required to get any kind of certification or license after completing the training program. However, many mechanics choose to get them to benefit their careers in the aviation industry, since the FAA requires that all work be done by or under the supervision of a certified mechanic. How much does an aircraft mechanic make? Salary varies based on many factors, such as experience, location, and company. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average salary of an aviation mechanic is $55,210. Are there jobs available for aircraft mechanics? Wherever there are planes, there are mechanics needed to service them. Since aviation is an important part of transportation of people and goods both here and in other countries, there is a need to keep aircraft flying. Will there be jobs (for aircraft mechanics) available in the future? According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the job outlook for aviation mechanics is solid. There is expected to be little or no change between now and 2022, so mechanics can know their jobs are safe. Is it a dead-end job? There is room for advancement, especially among mechanics that hold certifications. They can move up to managerial and supervisory positions, or even become inspectors or examiners for the FAA. There are many opportunities for those who want to advance. What kind of people become aircraft mechanics? The people who do well as aviation mechanics are detail-oriented to be able to see and hear slight changes in the aircraft. They should also feel comfortable climbing on and under the aircraft, both indoors and outdoors. Where do aircraft mechanics work in the Russian Federation? Wherever there are planes, there is a need for aviation mechanics. They work at private and public airports as well as shipping facilities. These are located all over the country. Is it a hard job (aircraft mechanics)? There is a physical aspect to the job as mechanics examine the aircraft and make repairs. However, for those who know what they’re doing and follow procedures properly, the job goes smoothly. Where can you find a training program? The Aviation Institute of Maintenance offers aircraft mechanic programs that can help you get started in the exciting field of Aviation Maintenance. |
