Do you want a job with a lot of responsibility? Do you want to be the
team leader? The one that gives the okay for the aircraft to get back
in the air?
A Licensed Aircraft Maintenance Engineer is the only one in the engineering
team who can certify that an aircraft is airworthy.
You will need a high degree of mechanical knowledge to head a team of
maintenance engineers. You’ll need to be a self-reliant high achiever.
You may be working in Heavy Maintenance in the hangar on an aircraft
that’s out of action for six weeks or you may be “on the line” at the
terminal with only thirty minutes to check an aircraft and release it
for its next flight out.
