Perth

Summary

During my time as an Avionics apprentice, I have gained many hands on foundations, not limited to avionics and component overhauls but often involved with Engine & Airframe tasks, working alongside and lending a hand to Avtech Aviation Maintenance who we share a hangar with.


After being in the Aviation Industry for over a year and a half, I have had exposure to many parts of the industry, gaining insight into processing in logistics/stores and hands on experience as an Avionics apprentice.

I have narrowed down my scope of passion and interest to Turbine Engines, and am ready to dedicate my career to their maintenance, overhaul, and design.
