We’ve been afforded many opportunities to review resumes, awards and scholarship applications, performance write ups, and things of the like. Some of them have been very commendable, others have been more of the cookie cutter variety, and others have been what may be called “velvet daggers”.

2024/01/19

We’ve all experienced the cycle of taking time off for the holidays and/or an extended vacation. Ever notice when said time off is over, everything just feels like a massive blah? You find it hard to focus, recall simple steps, and just generally don’t feel happy about being back at work. What you’re experiencing is the post-holiday slump. This is sometimes countered with some type of “back in the saddle” briefing where employers will “ease” you back into the work mindset, which can

2024/01/05

We have talked about some hobbies we have picked up over the course of 2023 in previous episodes, from exploring more fantasy lore, model painting, wood working, and tabletop games. These hobbies have given us an outlet to de-stress and exercise some creative problem solving. We’ve realized that hobbies can help reignite some skills that may have fallen to the wayside since our mechanic school days. For this episode, we explore some fading AMT skills and how creativity outlets can translate

Have you ever been given a task, but a good amount of it was spent waiting for all of your resources to get rounded up? If there’s one thing, we as mechanics are forever pressed for, it’s time.

Another major goal was to go to more in-person events such as expos, conventions, and conferences; tune in to see what events we may be

We’ve all been there at some point, either first time getting a job, or transitioning from one job to the next, we come to a moment where we ask, “What am I doing?”.

The holidays are coming up soon and while it is widely dubbed as “the happiest time of the year”, that may not be the case for some of us, especially in the aviation industry. The holidays typically mean longer workdays, overtime requests, bloated workloads, and to top it off, let’s throw in some Seasonal Affective Disorder (that’s right, S.A.D.)! We’re rejoined by Kora the aviation therapist to talk about S.A.D., other holiday blues, and what we can do to alleviate them.We highly

2023/10/27

We’ve seen instances of high visibility jobs, such as aircrew, stand up for each other and plant their feet when circumstances arise that antagonize them. For aircraft mechanics though, it’s not as present. Some would argue that they don’t stand up for each other and would sooner vote with their feet than band together. Why is that? Today, we share some opinions to maybe spark a discussion to answer this question, and maybe spark an initiative to band together.Follow us on Facebook-

It’s beat into all of our heads to the point of numbness, “safety first, safety always”. The world of aviation is full of inherent risks, some we do well to avoid, others we do our best to mitigate. Often times though, safety is blurred for the sake of speed whether we want to admit it or not. Today we explore “the dirty dozen” of aviation safety, how each item among the dozen can cascade into the others, and what steps and tips we can take to maintain a high degree of safety.Follow us on
