if you are equipped with the proper gear to do wheel changes, IDG replacements etc you do not need strength.
"
If", being the key word in that statement
If you're having to use a lot of strength, there's probably a better way you can be doing the job.
There will always be a better way to do the job and having the right tools makes every job much easier but what if you don't have the right tools? Sometimes you have to use various different ways, sometimes strenght is one of those ways.
Anyway madiha, There is alot of P**S taking in this industry, mainly because its mostly lads, if you react to it it gets worse.
Just get on with it, and take the P**s back
Some engineers aren't strong enough for certain jobs, (for example a B2 lad trying to de-panel, you might aswell just give him/her a drill and easy out to start with, but they wouldn't know what to with them)
Some are too fat for fuel tank entry, some are too small to reach from the top of the steps provided....
Some are better at other things in their trade than other
I think physically the perfect engineer has one really long arm with two elbows, three wrists, really long skinny fingers , the other arm is short and really really strong with short stumby fingers.
We all have different strenghts and weaknesses and working as part of a team is about using everyones strenghts as much as possible....
My God thats management talk............ HELP!!!!!!!!!!
