i am taking diploma in aircraft maintenance technology now, will be finished my study in 6 months. I am just curious about the salary. how much will the company pays for fresh graduate to be their technician? and how much the highest salary can be gain? thanks.

don't bother about salary as u still young.Have long way to go.gain as many experience n then go to other aircraft place to demand more salary.

yes. i know about that, i dont see any wrong if i just want to know about it right? its is not being demanding or what, it is just an information. thanks

which training school are you from?

tafe college bro.

gaji pokok RM1200

do you have life aircraft experience? depends on airlines dude....different airlines different pays....around 1.5k average

Technician for aircraft only rm1.5k??

If you have experience, you can easily earn >9000k!

very surprising? aircraft technician is still technician.


this is not kopitiam...

Is the technicians different than the engineers?

Different la..

Technician = ikut apa disuruh oleh engineer

Engineer = suruh technician buat kerja2 berat

Airasia Academy Aircraft engineer grad will get RM4k plus...

for TAFE coll. tech. ...i'm not sure.

i last heard basic is 1.8k, u better ask ard

hi chan05, well, first u have to know what section u want to work with because when talking about aircraft industry, they are big. aircraft maintenance, you will be working on the ground, maintenance the aircraft, working with the engine. they called themself as ground crew. some college do offered this course, like MIAT, TAFE College, Nilai Kolej. others oso got, but i cant remember them. aeronautical, you will learned about everything with the aircraft, my brother took this course in UTM skudai Johor. and he said this course is more to helicopter including designing and operating.aviation and aircraft engineering, i think they are same, which is at your last semester, you will have to choose your major course weither powerplant, or avionic, etc. oh ya, avionics is about electrical system in aircraft, wiring, the system in cockpit, avionics is the most hardest major in aircraft industry i guess. Do your research, and go for what you interested. whatever your decision, aircraft industry offers you lots of money when you get the license. hee. but to get the license is not easy because we are dealing with human's life.

Correct me if i wrong. i just giving the information based on my lecturers and seniors experience. Sorry if the information is wrong.

cheers. and good luck to you.

Hi,now im studying for diploma in aircraft maintenance technology..
Can i go further for diploma in aircraft engineering?

yes, you can. You can go sink down to shitties way toward your career if you stick with your "sijil xlaku". You should know that aviation industry are more selective when in term of qualification, 'they' only seek those who have job experience and valid maintenance license (I mean EASA cat A for technician) Good luck in your bumpy journey!
