Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

Aircraft Mechanics and Service Technicians

Intermediate-level inspection, maintenance, and repair of aircraft hydraulic and pneumatic components transfer directly to civilian aircraft component maintenance.

How to prepare: Gather records of your component-maintenance experience and request an FAA review to identify applicable mechanic ratings and experience gaps. Air carriers often require a mechanic certificate for hiring, although it is not an FAA requirement for every airline mechanic job.

What the civilian work involves
  • Examine and inspect aircraft components, including landing gear, hydraulic systems, and deicers to locate cracks, breaks, leaks, or other problems.
  • Read and interpret maintenance manuals, service bulletins, and other specifications to determine the feasibility and method of repairing or replacing malfunctioning or damaged components.

Aircraft Structure, Surfaces, Rigging, and Systems Assemblers

Aircraft hydraulic and pneumatic component inspection and repair provide a foundation for aircraft systems assembly inspection and rework.

How to prepare: Practice reading aircraft assembly blueprints and specifications, focusing on component relationships and assembly sequences before applying for systems assembly work.

What the civilian work involves
  • Read blueprints, illustrations, or specifications to determine layouts, sequences of operations, or identities or relationships of parts.
  • Inspect or test installed units, parts, systems, or assemblies for fit, alignment, performance, defects, or compliance with standards, using measuring instruments or test equipment.
  • Adjust, repair, rework, or replace parts or assemblies to ensure proper operation.

Getting Started

  • Mechanic (Airframe & Powerplant) · Funded

    Pursue FAA mechanic certification for civilian aircraft maintenance work requiring the applicable ratings.

    Eligibility and preparation: Applicants must be at least 18 and able to read, write, speak, and understand English. Eligibility requires 18 months of practical experience appropriate to one rating or 30 months concurrently performing duties appropriate to both ratings, or graduation from an FAA-approved Aviation Maintenance Technician School or completion of the military JSAMTCC course. Written, oral, and practical tests are required.

    For: Aircraft Mechanics and Service Technicians

  • Certified Aerospace Technician Core

    Validate foundational aerospace knowledge in applied mechanics, test and measurement, materials and processes, and safety through written, oral, and practical assessment.

    Eligibility and preparation: Meet any one route: active-duty or veteran service with an MOS, rating, or assignment in aeronautical, aviation, aerospace, or engineering work; at least two years of work experience in one of those fields; a college or technical-school degree of at least two years in one of those disciplines; or an FAA Airframe & Powerplant certificate.

    For: Aircraft Structure, Surfaces, Rigging, and Systems Assemblers
