Aircraft and Avionics Equipment Mechanics and Service Technicians Occupational

Important Points

* Most workers here learn their jobs in 1 of about 170 schools certified by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
* here Job opportunities should be favorable for persons who have completed an aircraft mechanic training program, but keen competition is likely for jobs at major airlines, which offer the best pay and benefits.
* Job opportunities here are likely to continue to be best at small commuter and regional airlines, at FAA repair stations, and in general aviation.

Nature of the Work

Today’s airplanes are of highly complex machines available with parts that must function within extreme tolerances for them to operate safely. To keep aircraft in peak operating condition, aircraft and avionics equipment mechanics and service technicians perform scheduled maintenance, make repairs, and complete inspections required by the FAA.

There are tips on buying an Airplace,

might not be a cure for this malady but certain actions can be taken to make it less painful if you succumb to the urge. No single injection of information can inoculate a person from possible dreadful reactions from the itch, but this article should give patients a direction toward relief from stress and torment of buying.

First, don’t try to make the purchase by yourself unless you are a pilot, mechanic, accident investigator, federal regulation expert, type certificate authority, lawyer, and a few other occupational specialists rolled into one person. Get help, the pitfalls are too many.

The first decision

Once you have chosen to cure that ownership itch, you have a major decision to make: what kind of aircraft will you buy. Setting aside the financial considerations, deciding what to buy must be the first step. Just because you have trained or built most of your flying hours in a particular model or brand doesn’t mean that particular aircraft will be the best for your purchase. Some questions to ask yourself

If we see in History of air traffic control, 1921 to find the first air traffic control efforts, accomplished through the use of coloured flags.

Today the job is much more sophisticated with advanced technology, but still provides separation in the sky (preventing collisions). Actually, air traffic controllers direct aircraft either on the ground, or while in the air.Dave Rye is the manager of operations at Nav Canada’s Area Control Centre (ACC), and is responsible for all air traffic control operations that occur within that unit. ACC is one of seven such facilities across Canada.

Now Located in Riverview, the “Moncton” ACC houses about 120 controllers, in addition to 40 administrative and technical staff.Controllers at the facility “safely track, separate and guide aircraft in an airspace known as the Moncton flight information region (FIR) that spans over the Maritimes, and portions of the Gulf of St-Lawrence, South-eastern Quebec and Labrador,” Rye says.

Controllers are there also provide en route service for aircraft that fly between the Maritimes’ several airports, as well as service for “overflight” aircraft. The ACC is not the control tower.

Pakistan's airline under pressure

PIA has had to reroute flights to avoid Afghan airspace

Pakistan's flag carrier, Pakistan International Airlines (PIA), is bracing itself for the fall-out from the terrorist attacks in the United States.The airline was in financial difficulties even before the attacks.
Now the situation is set to get worse, both because of the global travel downturn and Pakistan's proximity to Afghan airspace.
Since the attacks PIA had to change many of its routes, because its aeroplanes do no longer fly over Afghanistan.
This has lengthened journey times to the United States and the United Kingdom by one hour, an expensive change to schedules.
Insurance costs are also up, as Pakistan's location compounds PIA's difficulties.
The increased tension in the region is a setback for an airline that only recently received a 20bn rupee bail-out package from the government, and saw its financial situation improve over the past few months.
To make things worse, it also faces demands for higher pay from pilots.
Potential problems
PIA's chief operating officer, Khursheed Anwar, told the BBC's World Business Report that the airline had not yet experienced a fall in passenger numbers.
However Mr Anwar believes this is due to the backlog of travellers, as many flights were cancelled immediately after the attacks.
"We feel that advance bookings may be cancelled in the month of October and that's when major problems could start," he said.
Mr Anwar said he did believe that the lifting of US sanctions against Pakistan would help PIA, and Pakistan business in general.
"We expect to see an improvement in traffic both in passenger and freight... and also we hope that our currency will stabilise and not depreciate as it has been doing in the past," he said.

American Airlines 's Post world war developments

After second World War , American airline launched an international subsidiary, American Overseas Airlines, to serve Europe; AOA was sold to Pan Am in 1950. AA launched another subsidiary, Líneas Aéreas Americanas de Mexico S.A., to fly over to Mexico and built several airports there. American Airlines provided advertising and free usage of its aircraft in the 1951 film Three Guys Named Mike. Until Capital merged into United in 1961, AA was the largest American airline, which meant second largest in the world, after Aeroflot.

American Airlines introduced the first trans-continental jet service using Boeing 707s on January 25, 1959. With its 707s American shifted to nonstop coast-to-coast flights, although it maintained feeder connection to cities along its old route using smaller Convair 990s and Lockheed Electras. American invested $440 million in jet aircraft up to year1962, launched the first electronic booking system (Sabre) with IBM, and built an upgraded terminal at Idlewild (now JFK) Airport in New York City which became the airline's largest base. In the year1960s, Mattel released a series of American Airlines stewardess Barbie dolls, signifying their growing commercial success.[citation needed] Vignelli Associates designed the AA eagle logo in 1967. Vignelli attributes the introduction of his firm to American Airlines to Henry Dreyfuss, the legendary AA design consultant. The logo is still in use today.

By Sep:1970, American Airlines was ready to offering its first long haul international flights from the West Coast to Honolulu and on to Sydney and Auckland via American Samoa and Nadi.

A fictitious mark "American Airlines Space Freighter", the Valley Forge, was the setting for the 1971 science fiction movie Silent Running, starring Bruce Dern and directed by Douglas Trumbull. The freighter featured the then-new "AA" logo on the hull, along with the crew uniforms and several set pieces. On 30 March 1973 AA became the first major airline to employ a female pilot when Bonnie Tiburzi was hired to fly Boeing 727s. From 1971–1978 Beverly Lynn Burns worked as a stewardess for AA. She went on to become the first woman Boeing 747 airline captain when, on the afternoon of July 18, 1984, she commanded People Express flight #17 (aircraft 604) departing Newark International Airport at 3:30pm to Los Angeles International Airport. In a prearranged effort, this honor was shared with another female People Express captain Lynn Rippelmeyer, who flew flight number 2 from Newark to London Gatwick at 7:35pm that same day.

American Airlines

Till now American Airlines, Inc. (AA) is the world's second-largest airline in passenger miles transported,[8] passenger fleet size, and operating revenues. American Airlines is a subsidiary of the company AMR Corporation and is headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas adjacent to its largest hub at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. American operates an extensive international and domestic network, with scheduled flights throughout North America, Latin and South America, Europe, Asia/Pacific and the Caribbean.

American Airlines was listed at number120 on the Fortune 500 list of companies in 2010 and is a founding member of the Oneworld airline alliance

SIA Witnesses Year of Two Extreme Halves

After an experience of major financial setbacks n the first and second quarters, Singapore Airlines made an impressive comeback in its third and fourth quarters.

According to these reports, the national carrier posted an 80% on-year decline in full-year net profit to $216 million.

Further, the airlines had chalked up nearly half-a-billion dollars in losses in its first two quarters that totaled to $466 million.

The most primary reasons for the losses were the high fuel prices and the economic slowdown.

However, the airlines recovered from losses and witnessed a turnaround from the third quarter. The national carrier recorded a profit of $682 million.

According to the officials the turnaround was due to the global economic recovery, the rise in the passenger numbers and of cargo carriage.

Commenting on this results, Stephenson Harwood's Global Head of Aviation, Paul Ng said, "The fourth quarter was a period of holiday, so passenger traffic and cargo traffic would have seen higher numbers. In particular, the Q4 results were good partly because the fuel hedges that were crushing the profits of the airline had run out".

SIA officials reports that the fourth-quarter net profit of SIA stood at $278 million that was more than six times of the net profit which was recorded last year.

Report suggests that the figure disobeyed the market expectations that were estimated at about $240 million.

Analysts speculate that SIA would maintain a trend of profitability in the first quarter next year as well.

Singapore Airline may sell Virgin holding

The chief executive officer of Singapore Airlines may drop 49% share in Richard Branson's Virgin Atlantic. Mr. Goh Choon Phong, who had occupied the seat as chief executive just today, may get recommendation for the last major remainders of Singapore Airlines' worldwide growth plan.

It has also informed that he is dealing with the rising rivalry in Asia. Virgin has stated that during December, it had received venture queries and Singapore Airlines' departing CEO; Chew Choon Seng had coined the deal as underperformance, 2 years before.

In Asiatic nations, Mr Goh encounters cheap-cost contention on long-distance routes from AirAsia X and Jetstar and as well as rehabilitated the hard work done by Cathay Pacific and Korean Air Lines to tempt away profitable business-class voyagers.

Mr Chew's forerunner, Cheong Choong Kong, bought shares in Virgin Atlantic and Air New Zealand to developed in a foreign country.

The significance of the Air NZ deal was noted during 2001, and the rest of the shares were traded 3 years after that. Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific is on $HK1 billion ($A126 million) profitable business-class promotions to take away premium travelers.

Singapore Airlines now ready to shed off its stake in Virgin

A news: After selling off majority of its stake in Virgin Atlantic, Singapore Airlines has said that airline is always ready to shed off remaining part as well. The comment was made after there were news reports that said that there was another potential bid for the airline.

SIA currently has 49 per cent of the shares under its name. The stake was taken up by the company in year 2000.

The situation came up after both the parties saw a long span of time of strained relationship. While news reports confirmed that statement, IA VP-Public Affairs Nicholas Ionides said that 'no such' decision has been taken about further divestment.

Earlier this on SIA's new CEO, Goh Choon Phong had said in an announcement that organizational restructuring is taking place at present and that it is going to align the firm's commercial, operational and corporate planning activities.

As from February 1, Executive Vice President for Commercial, Mak Swee Wah will be looking after all the activities related to marketing and sales and also delivery and services.

HR issues are going be taken care by Executive Vice President for Human Resources and Planning, Ng Chin Hwee. Besides this, a separate section for corporate planning will also be opened.
