yes, why not
in fact in mas there is someone who started working there as a cleaner/maintenance assistant (not sure what was the position really is) but slowly climb up and now he is one of the superitendant/manager
in fact a lot of engineering managers started from lae, IMHO they need to have hands on experience on aircraft to manage the company better
if u want to become manager faster, go to those small GA company, since there is not much employee and less competition

Thanks azameel and e7471,
Thanks to everyone else too cause i just finished reading all the 80 pages and because all of you, now i have increased valuable and 'gold' inputs in this field. And yes, I've acknowledged from the earlier pages, about just being a tech before a person can sit for an exam to obtain LWTR from DCA, despite whatever academic qualification he/she has (SPM/Diploma/Degree/PHD etc).My question is ;
*Why do a person wants to take 'Bachelor' of Aircraft Engineering Technology (BAET) if in the end he will still be a tech just like other dip graduates before becoming an LAE?
*Or do BAET graduates do something else besides maintenance engineering when he/she starts working?
*Sorry if this one sounds really noob but,between Technician and Mechanic in AVIATION, which one is on the upper level? Do Diploma in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering is required to be a mechanic or just SPM? And can a mechanic be an LAE later one , by going through step by step?
P/S : Fuhhhhh, 80 pages are a lotttttt dudes i tell you!!
