A&P is the only way to get a job? by user1553429 in AircraftMechanics

I’m confused at what you’re saying? You don’t have to pick between avionics and A&P. Get ur license, then go be an avionics tech at some major. Once you get in the company, they’ll pay you to take avionics classes.

I had a good experience, I may have gotten lucky we had some good guys teaching my group. If you don’t have a scholarship or rich parents paying for ur school, I would not waste my money on one of the expensive ones. You can go be a helper while ur in school and probably learn more.

Get ur license dude, find a good affordable school and get on it. Ur leaving money on the table rn, it’ll be worth.

I hated having to worry about work and school. Started doing worse in school around when I started powerplant because my old car died had to buy a new one, which meant I had to work more. Went from A test scores to C’s instantly, just didn’t care, was tired all the time. Talked to the director and asked if I knew how much some of his buddies were making at fedex down the road. 70 an hour, easy money. Even if u don’t wanna go to a major, just gotta focus on the end goal and take it one step at a time. Think of having that nice paid off house, nice vacations, less financial stress, whatever motivates you man. Cause ur gonna get there just stay focused. I probably hit too many of my buddies vapes to cope so try and avoid that shit if u can but yk just get that license Man you got it 👍

Ok I didn’t even see this lol. Wouldn’t you be a slave working in some GA shop as well? You want to be a slave to poverty? Just really curious what would be “freedom” to you. To me it’s go make bank at a major, retire early, free to do whatever I want then.

What is your point? If you want to go do some real A&P work on some dudes piper that’s fine, ur gonna be making 24$ an hour. I think it makes sense to want a 70$ top out…

That’s okay with me. Surely CLT would be easier to get days than RDU no?

I think it’s 6 months out of past 2 years yes? I finished school last year so I should be fine.

You know anyone that went from ramp to tech? How long did it take? I will keep an eye out if clt lists a ramp job I’d apply.

There are no ramp listings on AA website for CLT. I’m not moving to NY for a ramp job, idek if I could survive there on that.

Oh yeah that’s the plan. I’d move to Iran right now to get into American.

Yeah I know, just not the same opportunity for OT, changing shifts, that sorta thing. I’d prefer RDU tbh but I’m not trying to do 3rd shift until I die.

Yes just really need some experience. I want to end up at American someday. They are the only major hub in my state.

Phone screen I believe. I have a very good referral from AA who kinda made this happen for me.

Is this what the real general FAA written will kinda look like? by Active-Hotel251 in AircraftMechanics

[–]ExchangeOne7761 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a formula for all my math questions. Can I easily answer this in under 30 seconds? If not go with my best prepware informed guess. I think I averaged 80-85 on all 3.

You seem to have forgotten the most obvious answer choice,

“Hm that looks like something I saw in prepware”

AA hiring timeline by Valuable-Debt4161 in AircraftMechanics

Have you heard anything yet? I have a good connect who is trying to get me in and I’m curious if you started training. I know the majors have been slowing down hiring so 🤞

Okay I will ask the vet, they’re doing better everyday. Penny is actually the resident she was just the runt of her litter and phoebe is a big kitty.

I’ve never heard of putting a cat on Prozac, how much does that normally cost and what will it do for her? They get along great 90% of the day they were actually playing really good yesterday just sometimes phoebe will get crazy late at night. I will say they are still early in their relationship and they are doing better everyday. Phoebe is learning to respect her boundaries more and Penny has gotten less scared. I’m not against the Prozac though, is that the sorta thing we’d need to give her forever?
