i'm an a&p mech working for an american commercial airline(www.woa.com). we might be looking for one more person in the near future. a&p license and md11 experience a must. basic pay approx: 14k/month, fixed allowance: 4k. anyone?

i heard that transmile is also looking for md11 people but with dca license. basic salary 13k.

so to threadstarter: good prospects but u need lots of luck to land a good paying job.

lwtr can join air asia or transmile lah... i think they offer pretty good pay too. unfortunately a lwtr is useless in an american airline. tongue.gif same way my a&p is almost useless in malaysia.

which bring you more satisfaction as engineer? the reward (money) or the thrill of the job it self?

omg! both! it's so rewarding to fix such a huge aircraft and watch it fly. and it's so satisfying to watch your bank account grow n grow and know that you're doing well to secure a good future for your loved ones.

There is no such thing as shortcuts in civil aviation. It is highly regulated. Everything must be done according to the proper procedures.

Ok Sir.

Added on December 3, 2008, 11:33 pmSa, read already and they say for CAT B
2. for category B2 and subcategories B1.1 and B1.3:
(i) five years of practical maintenance experience on operating aircraft if the applicant has no previous relevant
technical training; or
(ii) three years of practical maintenance experience on operating aircraft and completion of training considered
relevant by the competent authority as a skilled worker, in a technical trade; or
(iii) two years of practical maintenance experience on operating aircraft and completion of a Part -147 approved
basic training course.

So, this mean that the (ii) must be a skilled worker. But we are trainee. So how do this go on???
For (iii) Mas not yet part-147 approved basic training course.
*
(ii) is the norm. as long as u work for an organization with a approved maint training program u have satisfied "completion of training considered
relevant by the competent authority" last time i work for selangor flying club as apprentice oso kira de.
