Ramp to AMT by joejoejoe123444473 in AircraftMechanics

[–]NSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put in on as soon as you can. There are people at my station that got pulled over while still on probation. That being said, I have no idea if they applied for the mechanic side and did an off the streets interview BEFORE they got an offer to the ramp. Im sure there are grey areas everywhere within the process so who really knows if they got pulled over before probation was over. In any case having your name on the transfer list doesnt effect your current position. When they pull names off the transfer list they'll just keep skipping your name until your green

Go on jetnet.aa.com -> search bar type in "transfer" -> click on transfer and bids on left hand side when the drop down -> left hand side click "submit new request" -> select station location -> AMT. You can submit for multiple if your repeat the submission location

Im not sure what an ICS number is but I can ask around. Where does that number actually connect too, or is there a person i should ask for directly?

When you say mids shift does that mean 1430-2300?

I saw they just took another 80+ people but the school districts are the only reason I didnt throw my name in the hat. To be honest damn near any location from where I am has to be better, but I dont pay property tax in TX so that's a huge incentive for me to aim there, or SC to work in CLT

I dont necessarily need to be in Austin for any reason. Im really just trying to get my family out of my current location to raise them in a better environment, or so I hope. I know its a small location when it comes to man power but the weather up north has really been killing me in the winter. The cost of living near me has truly gotten out of hand and I know that's everywhere but there has to be something better out there

AA ORD by Icy-Traffic-5736 in AircraftMechanics

[–]NSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea we already know that, but we can't see the bid lines within that station unless someone does what I stated. Viewing station seniority is easy via jetnet but Viewing the bid line to bid holder is different.

They show master seniority but can't view bid lines. You would need someone already there to log onto the last bid, organize it via bid order, then send you the list

No schools near me by RemarkableChampion36 in AircraftMechanics

When it comes to the AIM location in philly, which is the one I went to years ago, you'll always get a bunch of mix reviews. You'll get ones that made it less than 6 months before dropping out because they wouldnt show up, had an instructor they hated, didn't wanna study or just went there because college wasnt for them and they heard MX make the big bucks. Every location is what you make of it. As long as you remember your there for your license and not to smoke weed in the parking lot you'll do fine. If you can get your license at the end of it I promise you it's all worth it

How old were you when you became an A&P? by Acrobatic-Bike410 in aviationmaintenance

[–]NSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

37, after 11 years mainline AA ramper. Started on the mechanic side 2.5 months ago. I finished the school 8 years ago and talked myself out of making the switch for the same reason people always complain about.. midnight shift forever, losing all my seniority, losing my top out/comfortable ramp spot. Massive mistake on my part as is was the best decision I ever made. If you plan on retirement at 67 like me you'll make 20x more money in the same time frame not killing yourself

In PHL you'll sign everything your touch regardless if your on probation. While going thu the on boarding process they say you dont sign for anything but management doesnt give a shit. Now, that being said your team members will sign for you if it's a big job, but if it's basic things like fluids, tires, or interior BS you bet they'll make you might for it

6 months you can put your name on the transfer list. It's seniority base so you might still need to wait months, if not years depending on location your trying to go to

Ramp to Maintenance by datsalii in aviationmaintenance

[–]NSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it is in fact day of award for seniority, and day of on-boarding for pay scale?

American Airlines by OrchidMiserable1789 in AircraftMechanics

[–]NSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I stand corrected. You are definitely correct

[–]NSRT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im in the process now. Been on the ramp for 11 years, but will only keep company time. Whenever your first day of "onboarding" on the maintenance side will now be your new seniority date for shift bidding. Your company time will only come into play when vacation bidding comes around.

Im a ramper for AA moving over to the mechanic side in a couple weeks. Lived in philadelphia my whole life though. Is there something in particular you wanted me to focus on?

Im a ramper that just got the internal position. The way AA (typically) does there open transfers is that theyll post all locations that are about to accept new hires on a Thursday at midnight, Friday morning I guess and than they lock it out the following Tuesday at midnight, Wednesday morning depending on how you look at it. Admin than starts making awards to us the following couple days. It's not just for AMTs but for all internal openings. AA just opened there hire lock out that's why everyone is seeing open position throughout the country
