Contracting Employment
The rate of £35 per hour would apply to a full unrestricted type rated
B1 (Mechanical+Electrics) or B2 (Avionic) Licensed Aircraft Engineer
WITH experience. The above is only one example of many.
Rates for Unlicenced Airframe/Avionic Techs/Fitters can be anywhere
between £10 per hour to £17 depending on location, your trade/type WITH experience & qualifications ie: Apprenticeship/C&G/BTEC Etc.

Permanent Employment
BA Engineering Glasgow were recruiting earlier this year, are they still??
Maybe some poor soul stuck there reading this can enlighten you on vacancies?
Apprentices pay can be abysmally low as it is considered a training position. However, it'll stand you in good stead if you want a full career
as a Licenced Engineer in this fun filled industry. 4 penniless years
will pay off!
WRT the B2 (Avionic) they are not as plentiful as our B1 chappies.
If you are more inclined to Instruments, Navigation & communications
as a general interest, its worth considering going this route.
Click on below to our lovely CAA's website, it spells out the B2 syllabus.
