Aircraft Engineer is carved in years

 

It can take around 5 to 7 years or more of education, training, and hands-on experience to become a fully qualified Aircraft Engineer, depending on the specific country's aviation regulations and the individual's progress. One is not eligible to be appointed as Aircraft Engineer directly even possessing highest education degree until he obtains 2 years hands on experience and clears the written, oral examination and an interview held by the relevant Civil Aviation Authority.

Joining as Mechanic ii with a 3 years diploma after High School examination it took me eleven years to become eligible for getting Aircraft Engineer’s license. Other than duties and responsibilities officially assigned projects like fabricating test equipment delayed to clear the relevant exams by three years to becoming an aircraft Engineer.

To filling up 2 vacancies of Maintenance Manager and 1 of Manager Engineering I had to wait twelve years after fulfilling four years duties and responsibilities as Aircraft Engineer. Finally in 1994 I was promoted to Maintenance Manager.
