    I took the same rout as an aircraft mechanic apprentice at a part 135 operation. Got my A&P back in July! Just always have to be open to learning and accepting the fact that you dont know everything. Get that A&P!

      Thanks man! 👍 For sure more content coming out, including interviews with other people putting in the work. I've worked on different industries over the past 20 years, definitely hands on work feels right at the end of the day. Forget office jobs! 😆

      I was actually trying to get out of my corporate job before the LSRM class. I interviewed for an apprenticeship with my Sonex project under my belt but realizedi need something else to set me apart. I signed up for the class and then started knocking on the doors of repair shops and reaching out to other mechanics I knew. As a student, you should be able to intern with some repair shops part time. We have a student here.

      It really all depends on what part of the industry you’re in and where you’re located. In general, you’ll make more money working on jets than piston GA aircraft. But there’s a huge shortage of mechanics right now and companies are having to pay more to get them across the board.
