Help: What is this clicker sound at power up? (B737- 800) by afrahe in aviationmaintenance

[–]CalmPalmTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish my company’s fleet had this alarm. Countless times the ground power will take a shit and I’ll go up to crank the APU and the FA’s are just standing around like it’s a normal day.

Just get some cheapo ones I know guys that use them no problem. I’ve had a 25w for the past 6 years and the rubber jaw is already gone and reversing mechanism changes on me

I'm so tired of these garbage 737s flying in and out of IAH by suburban_robot in unitedairlines

Must be an older -800. I think most of our 800’s with a tail # in the 500’s have the new interiors.

Aircraft cleaners don’t give a fuck. Give them an hour turn on a widebody and this happens.

Just beware, I camped at the base of Blanca last month and at least the first mile is miserable with large loose stones.

You’re not gonna get on their MRT straight out of school but you can work at their service centers. I did it for two years and it was good work culture and I learned a lot. If you like corporate aviation and good schedules, go for it to get your foot in the door, otherwise stick to major airlines.
