I am a 7 year veteran (crew chief) who was medically discharged about 4 years ago and am working with Voc Rehab on getting my A&P (finally). The VA requires me to perform 2 "informational interviews" of A&P mechanics before I start training (I'm planning on taking a few classes through Embry-Riddle before I test). Anyway, are there any people who have their A&P and are currently turning a wrench that would be willing to fill out an interview form for me? Thanks in advance!

After being in the A&P business for 20 years now, I say don't do it. It's a gypsy life. Your not going to find the perfect job. If you do, it won't last. Also, with the economy being a roller coaster, good luck at finding a job. Most companies are laying off. Don't get me wrong, I love turning wrenches and I have worked for a prestine corporate outfit. I have even held the position of Director of Maintenance. Yet here I am on another holiday away from my family working. Why, because I have to pay the bills. I keep telling my kids to go to college and get an engineering degree or become a doctor or lawyer. I have a Masters Degree from Embry Riddle. I hold the A&P, IA, and FCC. I don't want anyone to take this personally because this is my thoughts about the aviation industry. Your more than welcome to comment on it.

Haven't had my A&P that long yet, but if you want a European perspective on things you can PM me.
