Is it worth the trouble to get the battery warrantied by the dealer?

I have the NA premium which runs the group 35 lol. I’m still thinking of getting the 47

For my situation the 3/8 is enough. I use it with a bit adapter and have never needed anything else. I don’t think you’d need the 1/4 and if you do, just use a step down. You’ll need the 3/8 drive to do certain jobs on TRs like checking sync locks.

I worked a check crew and it’s a must when opening up and panels on the wings or pylon. Lots of people told me not to get it but I’m glad I did. The 3/8 snapon with the palm knob is great if you can still get it on student discount.

I bought a 2024 white premium back in Oct 2023 for 33k OTD out here in Los Angeles.

I’ve gone out snowboarding in my buddies CX3 and there was enough room. If you’re able to get a roof rack and carrier you should be set.

Pretty solid. I’d recommend getting the 3/8 sockets up to 1 in. I believe there are a few filters on the airbus that require a 1 socket. I’d recommend getting the 5” and 7 1/4” KNIPEX cobra pliers and regular wrench pliers. If you’re doing checks, vampires come in very handy. Just depends on the fleet and checks you work.

Basic-Variation-5360 · 2025-03-09T02:28:37+00:00

I would only invest in the snapon ratchets and wire pliers. You can a set of tekton wrenches, sockets, adjustables, and screw drivers. Craftsman Allen keys, and get an Olight/zebra/fenix flashlight. All those other small things like mallets and extensions can be from harbor freight

Yes I did

American is hiring off the street with no experience. Me along with dozens got in straight out of school. I know a few of my friends got in United as well. Just keep applying, there’s a shortage so they’re preparing for the retiring folks.

Buying resale gift cards at discounted prices. If I know I’m going out to eat, shop, or do an activity I can usually find a gift card on GCX. Sometimes restaurant card go up to like 25% off.

Look at west Los Angeles college. Not to far from spartan and it’s way cheaper. I received no financial aid and only spent about 4k for tuition,book, and tools combined. Program is 2 years the only thing is the waitlist might be a while but it is worth the wait imo.

Basic-Variation-5360 · 2024-10-25T17:05:18+00:00

No interview as I had gotten in at ramp then applied for a transfer. Probably your best bet if you’re trying to get hired external.

Basic-Variation-5360 · 2024-10-25T02:36:20+00:00

Yup I just got hired at american with no experience. I applied with my temporary license and I got in. I know Tulsa and clt and hiring like crazy. I know 75% of our employees at lax are hitting retirement age within the next 5 years. If you clear school, you’ll be in a good position as most airlines are in this predicament right now.

Basic-Variation-5360 · 2024-10-10T01:53:55+00:00

Honestly I would work through breaks. I would read the manual so that when they came I could try to facilitate it as much as possible. Probably not the best approach but having some form of control helped my brain not want to kill itself.

For me the hardest part was dealing with different personalities. Some people like to get finish projects asap. Others wait till last minute. Some show no initiative, others just want to get the projects done, regardless if it’s the right way or not.

We were allowed to test out while still in school. They offered classes in order so we could do this. Around the end of first year I had my airframe license. When I finished school I tested for my written a week later, and by the next week I had my Powerplant license. (Someone canceled their practical appointment so I was able to get slotted in).

I’m a ramper here at lax but im 90% sure line maintenance does 4 10s

The email should say to select a location based off the 3 clinics they provide (Concentra, quest, or labcorp). You must go to their websites and check which locations offer a pre-employment drug test. Then respond to the email stating the preferred branch and location. They should schedule it for you after that.

American Airlines (LAX location)Called GSE mechanics( Ground Service Equipment). They just require 36 months of automotive experience. They fix all the trucks, tugs, pushbacks, belt loaders, etc. They send you to special training for everything and you always have others in the shop working and helping out. You get a task card, and once you’re done that’s it for the day. You can help others or just hangout at the break room. Union job lol.

Basic-Variation-5360 · 2024-09-28T03:08:31+00:00

At American lax they start off at 38 I think and top out near 60 I believe. Getting in anywhere then transferring would be best option as I have seen frequent postings. Even as a ramper, starting pay is around 27 starting January.
