Do aircraft mechanics work on Santa’s sleigh? Absolutely! Aircraft mechanics are some of the few lucky (or unlucky) tradespeople who get to work while everyone is enjoying the holiday season. A tireless, near chaotic orchestra of events needs to occur to make Christmas happen. But you know who doesn’t care about your schedules or holiday plans? Local wildlife…in this case, a snack bar stealing squirrel (yes this really happened)! If you hear sleigh bells ring on your side of the holidays, just know you have aircraft mechanics to thank.
From the creators of the Cancelled for Maintenance Podcast comes a series where we take a comedic, behind-the-scenes look into the gritty, non-glamorous life of aircraft maintenance.
Aircraft maintenance is an extremely rewarding, but very taxing profession. It takes a very driven person to take up this career and excel in it. It has its very low points but has its very high ones as well. Follow along with our three main mechanics and their friends as they deal with the highs and lows to keep planes flying.
