cardin,
They are there, believe you me..
They will be attached similar to this pix.

Some info on static dischargers. This is from the Boeing maintenance manual:

1. Static dischargers are installed on the airplane to reduce radio receiver
interference. Corona discharge, from precipitation static and engine
charging, is emitted from the airplane and causes the radio interference.
The precipitation static is the result of an electric charge accumulated
by the airplane striking charged air and moisture particles. Static
usually discharges at the wing and tail extremities and is coupled into
the radio receiver antennas. The static dischargers are designed to
discharge the static at points which are a critical distance away from
the wing and tail extremities where there is little or no coupling into
the radio receiver antennas.

2. Each discharger that is installed along the trailing edge of the wing and
the tail surfaces consists of a carbon fiber tip at the end of a slender
rod. The rod incorporates a resistive (conducting) material and is
attached to a metal base. The base is fastened and bonded to the
trailing edge surface.

3. Wing tip dischargers are smaller than wing and tail dischargers but have
the same general construction and are attached in the same way.

4. The vertical fin and each wing has a tip discharger and three trailing
edge dischargers. Each horizontal stabilizer has a tip discharger and
two trailing edge discharge

cardin,
Those are extracts from the 'description and operation' section of the manual on static dischargers.
Nope, I am afraid I am not that

Yes, it is an explanation to your queries...
Not to dissappoint you, yes I am an LAME and it doesn't matter where I worked, is it not?

cardin,
To cut a long story short, I joined an apprenticeship programme for 5 years. At the end of that 5 years, I got my LWTR (A&C) and my first type, a Boeing B737. And the rest is history..

cardin,
Very sharp!
Yes.. I was under MAS's TAME programme. One heck of a programme they used to have, producing excellent engineers for the industry
Yep.. fortunately the journey was a great and smooth one and ALL of us got our licenses as planned.
Too bad, gone were the good old days.

The pleasure is mine, cardin.
Some of us are bonded for 5 years (the ones under MARA scholarships).
Non MARA scholarships elligible were bonded for 10 years.

The MARA scholarship was actually a 'dermasiswa'.. and we're paying back 10% of the total amount.
The bond is because the study fees was borned by MAS as we're trained overseas.
During that time I guess we're the best as 3000 applied and only 30 got it.

nowadays the bond is up to 15 years but fully funded by MAS
but the training is all messed up
some Tame are on their 6th year and still havent got their LWTR
especially the Avionic guys

Today, I changed something and guess what. How much is the Tail Light (rear Position Light) cost for the B777-200, i like about 2inch thick and 5 inch long

Lol, when you join aviation than you will see aircraft until OMG. Other than that tail light, today i installed the waste tank point level sensor and also the continuous sensor, OMG the international shit is my god. Even with safety mask i also want vomit. Haha nice experiences.

Around thousand (RM)? Every counted in US dollar. 4188USD. How much is Malaysia riggit? Hehe, Today failed to install cause there is some problems, and just now afternoon solved and tommrow is going to in the hole where it belong.

Ya among the aircraft I work before, B777 im getting the most experiences compare to B747, B737 which I have gem fam but B777 none. A330 Ok lah. I still love B777. Is big!!! The left and right center main tank i can stand inside and have still gap left. Hehe

last time i did an aft bulkhead bolt replacement,
each of the bolt cost around 80-100usd, only like 3-4 inch length and 1/2 inch width
and there was around 144bolts (if im not mistaken) to be changed
imagine that

for the 777 at line 10, it comes from the kebab, thats why the smell is strong 

yup, by referring to the tech log, a document or better call it a book carried on aircraft for the pilot to record any defect (if no defect still has to write nil defect and some other flight info)
there will be a column where pilot will enter the to and from. so we can now the flight details

one of the responsibility of an lae is to clear the defect in the tech log before releasing the aircraft to fly again, if it cant be repaired and the defect is acceptable in a guide called mel (minimum equipment list), the defect can be deferred to a deferred defect log and the aircraft can fly with the defect (but of course the defect wont bring any danger to the aircraft)

The bolt that i mentioned is inconel, a nickel chromium alloy

http://asms.casa.go.kr/asms_ad/file/2003-11-25.htm

(this is the AD (airworthiness Directive of the job that i did )
replacing H-11 steel bolt with inconel bolt (now it had become too technical)
and while replacing it we found one broken bolt, broke into two

I had a degree in mechanical engineering and would like to work in aviation field. any recommendation or route suggested to kick off my career in aviation feild. Sick of construction line. haha

There are 3 basic ways, they are :-
1.Obtain it yourself-Need 5 years of aircraft experience (workschedule) and completion of all the EASA modules
2.Obtaining the license through a Part 147 EASA approved training school, Completion of all the Modules and 2 yrs of experience(workschedule) with minimum 2400 hours of instruction/course
3.Obtain it through Nilai, Miat, Metc, APR -Not so sure on this one (got Easa and Bcar), Need SPM and maybe some Diploma as well

Quoted from the first post.

If i will to pursuade EASA through option 2, how is the way ? tq

@lefty

u should go thru path 1 if u think u want to lebam in aviation area
cus what i see if u go to school and past exam in the end u are not
competent enuff even thou u got ur license

yup...
path 2 is easa miat@aero-bildung gmbh - approved 147

path 3 = similar path 1 but u got ppl teach u
              path 1 u need to study by ur self but if i think if u got at        least  7a-8a in spm i think u can learn by urslef

if i through path 1 , are aircraft company hire people with no experience as their technician or apprentice. or how can I start off through path 1 . thx

If depend to the requirement required by the industry. EASA need 5 years of experience, DCA I not sure, Also 5 years if I not wrong but MAS TAME can reduce 1 year. In the 5 years you complete your EASA all module and have the 5 years experience must work under approved maintenance part 145.

Now is open for Jr.Tech Trainee. But I do not know is for workshop or hangar... but maybe is workshop because hangar METC just batch in and start working recently. lol take your chance. Click Here.
