NOC 2244 – Aircraft instrument, electrical and avionics mechanics, technicians and inspectors

Index

Intro

This unit group includes mechanics and technicians who install, adjust, repair and overhaul aircraft instrument, electrical or avionics systems on aircraft. This unit group also includes avionics inspectors who inspect instrument, electrical and avionics systems following assembly, modification, repair or overhaul. Workers in this unit group are employed by aircraft manufacturing, maintenance, repair and overhaul establishments and by airlines and other aircraft operators.

Avionics inspectors, maintenance technicians and mechanics may acquire further endorsements to their AME licence allowing them to inspect and certify a broader range of aircraft and avionics systems.

An AME licence can be obtained by fulfilling the education and training requirements as stated above and passing Transport Canada AME examinations.

Progression to supervisory positions within specific areas of expertise is possible with experience.
