Growing Demand in the Aviation Industry
Aviation is one of the world's fastest growing industries. Estimates show that
30 to 50 million more people will fly airlines in the United States. In fact,
many experts agree that passenger fleets will double by 2013.
In addition to carry people, the aviation industry transports much of the
world's commerce. The industry's expansive growth, both in the United states and
worldwide, will be key engine fueling the economy.
To meet these increasing demands, manufacturers are expanding aircraft
production. This growth, combined with a retiring workforce, plus the need for
new and updated airplanes, means an increasing demand for airline mechanics and
avionic technicians. In fact, the FAA predicts there will be more than 80,000
new positions in this field during the next ten years. This trend I expected to
continue as long as the demand for qualified technicians out paces the supply.
This industry offers exceptional pay and long-term job security. The Bureau of
Labor Statistics states that the national average pay rate for aviation
technicians is $23.68 per hour, that's nearly $50,000 a year. Equally important,
AMT's receive unparalleled opportunities for advancement, opportunities to work
anywhere in the world, and a choice of specialization using the latest in
technical equipment and systems,
AMTs with advance ratings and administrative ability can reach supervisory and
executive positions. Those who have broad maintenance and overhaul experience
can become designated inspectors. The requirements for a successful career in
aviation maintenance include a desire to work with tools, an appreciation of
doing a job meticulously, and a solid education. Nobody offers you more of these
foundations than AIM.
Opportunities in Aviation
Major Airlines: Entry-level positions can lead to flight-line maintenance
on arriving and departing aircraft, specialized maintenance, heavy hanger
inspection or repair at an airline's home base.
Regional and Commuter Airlines: These companies require the same skilled
technicians that are needed by major airline carriers. But since they are based
in smaller communities- sometimes in desirable resort areas- these companies
provide attractive conditions to graduates who want a lifestyle not available in
larger cities.
Aircraft Manufacturer: Manufacturers of commercial., military, and
general aviation aircraft need entry level A&P technicians in every phase of
production.
