Avionics Technicians
Intermediate-level maintenance of aircraft radar altimeter equipment transfers directly to the equipment-maintenance focus of civilian avionics work.
How to prepare: Compare your documented radar-altimeter maintenance experience with avionics bench-repair postings to identify testing and repair skills you need to demonstrate or develop.
What the civilian work involves
- Test and troubleshoot instruments, components, and assemblies, using circuit testers, oscilloscopes, or voltmeters.
- Adjust, repair, or replace malfunctioning components or assemblies, using hand tools or soldering irons.
- Keep records of maintenance and repair work.
