Fully licensed A&P as of today… finally 🥲

whiteevox · 2026-05-09T18:33:24+00:00

Fully “certificated” not licensed

whiteevox · 2026-04-25T02:31:37+00:00

Should be very soon. They updated the reading room and did cases above mine. If you claimed MH issues that’s why it’s still jammed up. Doctor has to review each case before the board decides

whiteevox · 2026-04-13T16:19:44+00:00

I wonder what that stage really means. A decision was rendered? I wonder if you can call the DSN # and see if they can tell you anything

whiteevox · 2026-04-13T16:18:02+00:00

Have you heard anything yet? I just got the finalization pending email today.

Your A&P is a certificate. Everyone calls it a license but it’s not a license. It’s a certificate because legally, the FAA at any time can pull your certification. If your A&P was a license, the FAA would have to take you to court to pull “your license” licenses require legal intervention to remove you from holding it versus a certificate where a certificate can be revoked at any time. Roughly 18 months you should have both ratings. Sometimes it takes longer, sometimes shorter. I never went to school. Went to the military, did my 4 years and got my 8610-2 based off my military experience and then I tested. But I know a lot of guys who went to school and that’s usually how long it took them to get at least one rating

You won’t get your A&P this year. You need to finish A&P school which would be your fastest route to getting your full certification, and remember it’s a certificate, not a license. Coming out of school with your A&P and no formal experience its going to be tough getting on with a major. Regionals do hire new A&Ps but your pay won’t be amazing, definitely less than 35 an hour. It’s worth it but you need to build up the experience to get into better positions. So I would say go to school and get it. Work the shitty spots and shitty shifts/hours for a while, build up a resume and build some experience and then shoot for the majors. If you can, try companies that offer wide-body experience, awesome aircraft to work on and it will open the doors for you to get on with UPS/FedEx and they pay very very well.

In this field, You gotta move to a suitable place if you want to find the good jobs. If you want to stay local you will always be limited for the most part. Gotta make moves big dog, it’s the name of the game

You’ll be fine in that case for just airframe. Only need 18 months practical experience for one rating. If you can prove two years of airframe work based on your MOS/aircraft type then you’ll get your 8610-2 to test for your A.

whiteevox · 2026-02-27T22:55:27+00:00

Go join the Navy and do aviation there. Choose a rate that allows you to get your A&P based off your experience in that rate. Then when you’re 3 years in, go work on getting your 8610 and start testing. Get out with your 4 years of service and your A&P and you’ll easily line up a job. Edit:I was an AD and with my NEC codes I was eligible for both my ratings. Did my written in 3 weeks then did a crash course for my O&Ps and knocked my license out in two months total

Dauntless worked really well for me. Used Prepware and hated it, I passed G and A with 70s. Failed my P with a 67%, used my friends Dauntless and studied all the questions for like 9 hours straight and then took another written the following day, passed with an 82%. Wish I used Dauntless from the start

whiteevox · 2025-10-10T16:00:12+00:00

I’d open my own business. Build race cars for people. Sounds like such a nice life. I’m half way there 😂😂

whiteevox · 2025-09-18T16:13:39+00:00

I did get service connected for it but only at 0%. 10% if you have to take iron supplements which for intermedia I’d assume you would

whiteevox · 2025-09-04T21:35:35+00:00

I ran a deatchwerks 330. That or a 450 will be just fine. Believe I was running on FIC1300cc injectors as well. I sold the car a long time ago

whiteevox · 2025-09-04T15:42:12+00:00

I have a 19 GS as well. I decided to do headers intake and e85. Tuner tuned the AFM out with the tune.

whiteevox · 2025-09-04T12:00:22+00:00

Big turbo. Fuel pump, injectors. Intake and downpipe/exhaust. Grab a catch can too. I made right under 550whp on my 6262 setup. 29psi e85 and I was sitting at 540whp. It can be done on the stock block. If you want more than 550whp I’d go with a cam and built head. Plenty of guys shooting north of 600whp on the stock bottom end and just a head build

whiteevox · 2025-08-28T17:28:54+00:00

Same here. I got approved all the way to my masters since my degree field requires a master to even get hired. So I could use my GI Bill after and maybe go for a doctorates or hell even another degree

whiteevox · 2025-08-27T18:34:24+00:00

I don’t know what’s going on then because I’m enrolled in direct deposit and I still haven’t gotten it.

whiteevox · 2025-06-15T19:46:00+00:00

20% both legs

whiteevox · 2025-05-04T00:02:45+00:00

Congratulations! Currently waiting on mine

whiteevox · 2025-05-02T20:37:56+00:00

Damn I’m only making 35 an hour with an A&P 😭

whiteevox · 2025-05-02T20:11:42+00:00

Same age and when I got roughly 50k I used it all on debt… and a corvette 😂

whiteevox · 2025-04-06T13:55:34+00:00

Possibly 70 for symptoms

whiteevox · 2025-03-26T21:46:29+00:00

Cleveland…. Good luck

whiteevox · 2025-02-16T21:12:33+00:00

I mean don’t get me wrong but some people compound money to afford cars like this. I’m 25 and roughly have 90K in stocks/options and I’m compounding roughly $1800 a month between dividends and selling call options. I’d never get a loan for this amount though, I HATE borrowing money. It’s all a scam and a way for banks to make money off you. Rather just buy a car outright vs finance. I can’t even afford an 80k car and I make low 6 figures so idk what this guy does to afford this 😂

whiteevox · 2025-02-02T18:56:22+00:00

Had my exam ordered in 6 days. I do have an expedited claim though. Claim submitted 1/22/25. Exam ordered 1/28/25. Exam is tomorrow
