Aircraft Mechanic II
About The Position
Aircraft Mechanics II perform aircraft maintenance and repair of moderate difficulty to meet assigned missions. The role requires a combination of experience with engines, sheet metal and structural systems, hydraulics, electrical systems, power trains, and general mechanical maintenance. Mechanics provide input to Maintenance Engineering Changes (MEC) and Estimated Cost of Damage (ECOD) preparation, and assist with recommendations for changes to Maintenance Work Orders (MWO). The mechanic maintains, repairs, and modifies aircraft structures and components, including flight controls, engines, hydraulic and pneumatic systems, fuel systems, and other mechanical components. They apply airframe and power plant systems knowledge to diagnose malfunctions and restore equipment condition or operation. They use technical documentation, such as blueprints and manufacturers’ manuals, to solve moderate to complex problems. Mechanics may inspect Mechanic IIs and Is, lead teams on complex aircraft tasks, make entries in aircraft logs and records, and may specialize in sheet metal, electrical work, avionics, or other aircraft systems disciplines. Technical guidance is provided by a supervisor or higher-level technician as required. The position includes a stated H&W amount of $5.09; “Authorized” is also specified.
