We had to tow out one aircraft to get the second one out. One guy was working on it and left a pair of 90 degrees long nose (beefy one) on one of the tire. The plier had black handle and we never saw them. It punctured a brand new tire :( I can think of numerous rock damage on dash8 operated on grav...

I always wondered, if you have m2/m1, can you get an avionics ACA without a type course?

Got my ame a little bit under 2 years after graduation. Of course I was working when taking my course (3 years course in quebec)

The oem rudder trim switch for an aircraft that I was working on was out of production. There was an sb to replace it with a different type of switch... It was done as per the sb and the trim was backward! By the way, there is no need for 2 engineer to do a dual check on control. The guy making the ...

For those who think the technology is many years away, have a look at this video.

It gets realy interesting around the 9 min mark!

LAX For the job search I would say find something that you would like... I mean flying CAN'T be the only thing you like or are interested in... This is probly not gonna be your main job so might as well find something that you would enjoy. You like to work with your hands: construction You like comp...

7 years ago!

Buy the latest version of CARS FOR THE AME (7th I think)

Read it a few time... Learn the table of content (most important!!!)

Do all the practice test... But don't try to only learn all the questions..

AND carefully read all the questions when you do your test!

Then pass with 80%++

OK! I was under then impression you wanted to fix only your aircraft!!
Good luck then!

Right now you seem to be attacking everyone that tell you that you can't be an AME by taking shortcut... Cars are there for a reason... So that everyone can fly safe and not be too worry about aircraft falling off the sky. I didn't wrote them and no one on this forum did. And by the way the way you ...

I know I can do the work as I have taken industrial machinery apart and assembled it. I have done precision work, even more than a plane IMO... This is not about how much precision work you can do... If you screw up building tool ... well you do an other one and thats it. If you screw up aircraft w...

Yeah sure some ppl will do shitty work on their own aircraft... but it all depend of the person... I am a E licensed guy with a decent mechanics experience (m2 jets). I fell pretty confided that I could do a good job working on my own aircraft. If i were to buy a small aircraft wich I wont because I...

Am I the only one that think it would be easier to put the plane on "owner maintenance" instead of getting an M1 license if he is only gonna work on his own aircraft???

To get your AME-M after being ame-E you should need 1 years in M1 aircraft experience, do the ICS course(or any approved course), Fill a logbook, pass all exam exept cars. What do you fly?? It might be avail for owner maintenance? Getting your M1 is probly not worth it if you do it only for maintain...

Ok! I was was sure there was an online database for that on TC! I wanted to know because I just got my AME. I wanted to find out what personnal info TC made public with just my license number!

Thanks!

How can you do it? Well find the name anyway. I spent hours on transport site searching on how to do it and I couldn't find it
Thanks in advance!

Curently working! Anf I forgot to say I got the E license!
I finished school 2 years ago in st-hubert (ENA)

I just pass the Exam this morning 88%! Im a brand new AME :) I studied only CARS for the AME about 1 hour each day 2 weeks before my exam. I borrowed a book from a friend and he had written all the answer on the practice exam, so I had to answer the question without looking at the choice if I wanted...

Well I am an apprentice and going to get my license around christmas. Logbook is ok and I only need to write CARS exam. I make a more than decent pay now. I hope that if you are going to offer 11-13$/hr you don't expect the guy to not turn his back on you at the first occasion.

Well just small places, places to hang my hat for the mean time. Hard to find a steady long term place that I feel theres a good future at. Exeltech was suppose to be that place. It's hard to think of another company in Montreal quite like Exeltech was. Who bought them out? they going to hire? what...

Thanks
I will have plenty of time to look at this since I am unemployed HA!!

Premier Aviation is not in western Canada on this planet!

I took a flight with No tv and I never received this E-mail. It was a long flight (4h20). At least I had a book and a magazine. I could not sleep because I was in the last row and the toilet was flushing every 40 seconds or so (why can't ppl wait 4 hours neway?). They should have given a free meal
