We're Hiring Everyday. Just apply even if you don't have the skills many of the Manufactures will train you.

MacDaddy - get an A&P license & then go to engineering school & study either mechanical engineering with an emphasis on aircraft structures - stress engineering. There is a worldwide shortage in structures engineers who can fix aircrafts - also take mechaics of composites course work. Univeristy of Washnton has a great program - or you can get a job with Boeing as a janitor & they wil pay for your education on your time - off hours ..

if you're good enough right away, you could get a repairman's certificate. if you want to turn this into a career, you'll need an airframe and powerplant, or A&P, certificate. well, the A, anyway, if you only want to do metalwork. you'll need the A&P to sign off anything or make more than $12-15 per hour or get a meaningful promotion. A&P schools/programs run about 2 years long, and i've seen prices anywhere from $10,000 to $60,000 for the entire course. if you only get airframe, it'll be noticably cheaper. please note that one of these is legally required for 90-95% of the work you appear to interested in

It all depends where you work. Manufactures work under criteria you don`t need a a&p. Some overhaul facilities you don`t need it either,they place you where they can.. Major airlines you don`t need it either if they are working under a certain far. It all boils down to they company if they like you and give you a sheetmetal test or they are willing to train you. i have worked with many people that didn`t have there a&p at the majors and overhaul and manufatures. It limits what you can do and where you can go but it builds time to take your a&p

It's just like any other manufacturing job. If you have skills in the field or specialized training you apply and get interviewed and if they judge you capable you get hired. If you have no special skills but are mechanically adept you can apply and perhaps the company will hire you into a training program.
