  • Good luck to you! You will make the choice that's best for you. I get it trust me I know how hard it can be. If you ever have questions I will try to give you the best answer I can about aviation stuff.

  • Hell yes. Look at your options and do what's best for you! Turning wrenches is fun but flying would be fun too! I have a few pilot buddies and they love it.

  • You would have to find a school. There is one dude I see every now and then from Canada that has all of them from Canada and the US. He's a great mechanic. When I see him next I'll try to ask some questions.

  • Its Airframe and Powerplant. So, you guys are a bit different than the US. But I work with guys from Canada. Your licensing is a bit different. You guys have more. There is the S license for Structures, A for Avionics (I think its A), and a Powerplant one. You can get one or all of them. I have worked with a lot of guys that have the S. I can't remember if you guys do type ratings for each plane you would be working on or not.

  • Something to consider. And what ever company you went to would have training for Avionics. Or you may find something else you like. I hated sheet metal in AP school. But I LOVE doing it now. AP school is kinda dumb but if you play the game you'll be fine. At the end there are 6 Federal exams. 3 written tests and 3 oral/practicals. People freak out over those and many never do them. They are pretty simple if you study and apply yourself.

  • I'm an aircraft mechanic that specializes in sheet metal. There are routine things we do but pretty much everyday is different. I like it a lot. Lots of problem solving and troubleshootimg. If you're into electronics we have Avionics. While I specialize in sheet metal I still do everything so it is never boring. Biggest problem is paying for your License. It is costly. I got into it later in life. I got my license at 36.

  • What if you don't have any?

  • Hackers. I like to put it on when I'm doing stuff around the house, or when I feel shitty.

  • Did you decide on some kicks?

  • I have 3 pair. One of which isn't Vegan. They do get warm.

  • Yea I can. They can get fucked.

  • Yup its the original factory I believe!

  • Set up some meshtastic nodes!

  • But it isn't even a legal tactic. EOs mean nothing. They are not laws.
