Dear r. Kenneth MacTiernan

My name is Aziz and i was really glad to find out there is an association for AMTs, however I want to know if there are a web sites cars about us (technicians) such as training, working hours, environment of work places…etc..

For instance I work for an airline which operate under FAR 121, I received the initial training 10 years ago, yet I never attended any recurrent training since then.

The question is this legal, if no what can I do to correct this violation.

Thanks a lot and good luck

Sincerely

AZIZ

Hi all, my name is Paul Tran and I am glad there is a place where mechanics share ideas and discuss problems. I had 8 years mechanic experience in F/A-18 ABCD,E&F fighter jets during my enlistment time with the US Navy. Now, I am a customer service supervisor at Northwest Airline in Nebraska.

I am also taking night classes with Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. One of the requirements for a Master of Aeronautical Science degree is the completion of a Graduate Research Project. I have a survey on Aircraft Maintenance Safety (the link below) and it is the research instrument used to gather data for this project. Responses are submitted electronically to a database that does not identify users, so your answers will be completely confidential.

Please take a few moments to share all your opinions and experiences. Thank you for your time and help.

Sencerely,

Paul

Hi Kenneth, I am glad to know that we can still find Diehard mechanics/Aviation technitians like yourself who inspire all of us to keep serving this Industry, hungry for real Aircraft Mechanics who value their Profesion.

My name is Sam Grandez, with 28 years of Experience as a Mechanic, Holding an A&P Certificate, with large experience on military and comercial aviation. currently based in Australia working for Boeing.

Currently I am in the final stages of compiling /writing a Book about ourselves(The Mechanic) with 10 chapters such as.' In the Trenches'(real Experiences where we can highlite our important and critical/lifesaving role), 'The Quality' chapter,(its deterioration with the time, due to Money driving isuues and the consecuently exposure of the mechanic to this dangerous practice) Also there is a Chapter dedicated to the Early Mechanic Pioners like Charles Taylor. If I canm have your contribution on any thing relevant to expouse the importance of our profesion I will appreciate.

Thankyou very Much

Sam Grandez

Greetings all! I have added photos of the skilled AMTs that maintain the San Diego County Sheriff "ASTREA" helicopters on our Faces Behind Safety page at www.amtausa.com. These men are some of the faces that remain behind the spot light and go unnoticed and unrecognized for their knowledge, skill & integrity. I hope you enjoy the pictures and web site.

Hello, my name is Kenneth MacTiernan and I am the Director of a nonprofit organization called the Aircraft Maintenance Technicians Association, AMTA. I am also a American Airlines Aircraft Maintenance Technician in San Diego, CA.

Almost every school teaches about Orville & Wilbur Wright and their accomplishments. But no one knows about Charles E. Taylor; the Wright brother's mechanic. Charles E. Taylor, or "Charlie", built by hand the first engines for the Wright Flyer from a block of steel with nothing more than a lathe, drill press, and some simple hand tools. And he did this all in 6 weeks.

Charlie worked in the Wright's bicycle shop and helped manufacture and assemble the parts for the Wright Flyer. If not for Charlie's contributions the Wright's and the United States would not have been the first in controlled powered flight.

Over 100 years have passed since the Wrights made aviation history. But Charles E. Taylor has been little more than a foot note. Even today's AMTs are not thought of. The AMTA was created to change that. I created the AMTA to promote to the public the knowledge, skill & integrity that each and every Aircraft Maintenance Technician uses whenever they touch an aircraft.

Our web site, www.amtausa.com, has information about today's AMTs as well as Charles E. Taylor. I hope you can check out the site. If there are any questions please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Kenneth MacTiernan Director AMTA
